When i mention Yakun, im sure their butter kaya toast comes to your mind right? 💕 Did u know that they have newly introduced an afternoon set serving MUFFINS ($1.90 ala carte, $3.50 with coffee/tea after 2pm)?! 😊
.
I tried their Kaya Lemon muffin (the other flavour being Kaya Pandan) out of curiosity + i wanted a quick bite 🤣
.
Tbh, it was quite a disappointment. 😔 While i still liked their sweet & aromatic coconutty kaya slathered on top 💚, i found the muffin to be too crumbly & a tad too dry. Would have very much preferred it to be more soft & moist!
.
The iconic citrusy notes of lemon was almost non-existent - extremely faint! 😭 Would have liked the tartness to be more pronounced to balance the sweet kaya.
.
Innovation is good, but this needs some finetuning imo to be on par with its counterparts on Yakun's menu. 💪🏻
