Their Hong Kong branch also sells these cheesecakes along with roll cakes. But on this day, I passed by and I saw the y sold a seasonal limited item called a peach cake. It looked nice and I bought one to take home with me for dessert later that evening. Price? $68.
Packed in a pretty blue box. They included an ice gel pack to keep it cool. They also included a small plastic spoon. The staff informed me as it was a real fruit with no preservatives, it should be eaten within today.
This is the peach cake. A whole Japanese white peach with a sugar glaze on top. It was laid on top of a small sliver of peach juice soaked sponge cake.
Inside the pit was removed and custard was filled inside.
The peach was super juicy but not sweet at all. That was odd. In fact, there wasn't much flavor. The custard was delicious. Smooth, creamy with a hint of vanilla. Not too sweet as well. The only disappointment was the peach. I expected it to be much more sweet and fragrant. But it wasn't.
For $68, if the peach tasted better, I would give it a serious happy face and value for money. But as the peach was flavorless, I give this only an ok for the custard was good. But definitely not value for money. Wouldn't purchase again.
Staff gave me stamp card. After collecting 10 stamps, you get a free Mel Cheese. I don't know if I'd be back.
