I love this area of Lei King Wan in Sai Wan Ho as it is a very peaceful and quiet area along the harbor - a bit like Stanley. Perfect for strolling and getting a piece of cake! This cafe is neatly tucked around the corner from the end of Tai Hong Street, which is where most of the eateries are located. At first glance, the shop was brightly lit and neat, and the decor was cozy and romantic with a chandelier hanging from its high ceiling and drawings of the Eiffle Tower on its walls. Especially
There was a variety of mini cakes displayed in a case at the counter.There were many flavors to choose from - from fruit-based to chocolate-based to cheese-based. We both wanted something light so we opted out of the chocolate ones and decided to get some fruity ones to share.
Mango and Cream ($38) - mango with vanilla cream and chocolate biscuit. There were chunks of mango inside and the mango was definitely fresh and sweet! It was refreshing to eat along with the vanilla cream which was not too sweet. The surprise was the use of a chocolate biscuit as the base of the cake. The biscuit tasted good and crunchy, which provided another texture to the cake.
Blood O ($38) - with blood orange from Italy. This cake did not have fruit filling inside like the Mango and Cream. Instead, the flavor of the blood orange was infused in the mousse, which was smooth and light. The mousse tasted sweet and tangy, which was refreshing as well. It also had a chocolate biscuit as base as well.
I like that the cakes at Zoe are not too sweet so you end up leaving the shop feeling satisfied instead of in need of a drink. I've tried their chocolate cakes as well and the flavors in general are great and well thought-out. The only thing is that the cakes here are really expensive at $38 for the amount of cake you get. If the prices are lower, I would come back more often.
