PSA they revamped the space, now there's no seats there's a lot more chocolate snacks like cookies or chocolate bars

Pretty good, I won't say it's stunning but it is a solid chocolate cake. It has the slightly wobbly, kind of pudding like texture which is pretty unique for sponge cakes.

And not too sweet too, which is really nice

Finally got my hands on this after years

On top of their ulu location, to get a slice you have to call in advance at 1030am on the day itself to check for availability. There was literally just one slice that day lol, but otherwise their sunshine(mango yuzu meringue) should make for a good substitute

This cake is really really light, it's no trouble finishing this huge slice at all. The exterior is perfect, it's properly dehydrated and very airy with a good crunch, and the interior is chewy. I'm no baker but I presume it takes great skill to achieve a balanced texture like this. Further, the passsionfruit taste in the cream comes through nicely and works brilliantly

Worth a try for sure, though idk if it's worth the trouble

Huge slice, can share between 2 easily.

Basically an ondeh ondeh cake that's done immaculately. The sponge was soft, sweetness was balanced, and most importantly the cream was salted which made it super addictive.

A must try, for great execution of a classic

A quintessential fudgy brownie, with a textbook salted caramel sauce. Sometimes simple is best, I liked it a lot

It's slightly dry, abit more fudgey than your normal cakes, cherry wasn't v generous. Average overall

Theirs is not exactly a fudgey kind actually, when warmed up the exterior has a slight crust but the interior, while thick like a fudge, is bubbly in a way reminiscent of soufflé. Not your normal brownie but it's still very enjoyable, due to the richness.

Small portion too which is great, worth trying if you're nearby

Partner described it as chonky, it really was very thick and almost slightly sticky in texture. The flavours weren't very prominent, mainly notes of dark chocolate but you can hardly taste the salted caramel. If you're basic(and there's nothing wrong w it), you'll probably love it?

Noticed that it's very popular w ladies based on reviews and today I get why. This isn't a normal orh nee cake, it's very floral. The yam paste is good but what's most striking is just how much it tastes like a floral cake rather than orh nee. I still enjoyed it tho, just not tremendously, it's quite different from what you expect.

Adjust expectations, that's my advice if you're getting this. Otherwise it's alright, or maybe I just have high standards for orh nee (stuff)

The brownie was not bad, a fudgey kind, but the biscoff is quite plain, doesn't come through at all, it's almost just a biscoff biscuit on top of the brownie

Overall decent, nothing special

Pretty decent, I thought the sweetness was good, there's also an interesting Graham? Layer at the bottom that's soaked w some kind of syrup which was unique and provided much of the sweetness

Only the most annoyingly accurate, the most painfully truthful reviews.
