Came here specially for the chestnut cake as Iโm a sucker for chestnut cakes but was disappointed. I generally like nesutoโs cakes as they are light and fluffy, with good flavour. This was indeed light & fluffy, but my bf & I agreed that the chestnut flavour didnโt come through. The most chestnutty part was the piped cream on top. The diced chestnut felt a bit out of place, would have preferred a paste! Didnโt like the chestnut rum pairing. The taste is a bit off. Sad, really wanted to like this :(
My turn on dopa dopa!! I was rlly excited for this honestly and esp the matcha cheesecake since I love both flavours separately but I was so disappointed because both flavours tasted like nothing together (I couldnโt taste either and the whole gelato was tad sweet) ๐ข but the pistachio was REALLY GOOD was v v satisfied!!! ๐ฅณ the croissant took some time to come, I donโt rmb it to be esp hot when it came but it was flaky and just average I would say!!
First time at cake spade after hearing so many good reviews and got a slice of lychee rose cake but it was really disappointing :-( yes I could taste the subtle rose flavour through the rosewater cream but I felt that the cake sponge itself was normal and the cream was too overpowering ๐ข really really not worth the price imo!! But they do have a wide and exciting selection of cakes and Iโm sure I can find smth else thatโs really amazing there thatโs worth the hype!!!! Till next time.
It was very satisfying watching the cook make the thick fluffy pancakes and true enough the pancakes were super soft and melted in our mouths.
Mango Passionfruit - the passionfruit was rather sour but it complemented the fresh and sweet mango pureฬe (with lovely sago bits) very well. Also appreciate it so much that they gave a full mango which was SO fresh.
Personally I like the strawberry cheese even more especially the soft fluffy cream cheese paired with the pancakes :-) the strawberry seemed rather excessive however haha as the highlight for me was rlly the cream cheese!
This was gifted! Surprisingly not bad, I didnโt have a good impression of this brand after trying their tiramisu which was meh, and triple fromage which was alright but not memorable.
This New York cheesecake was pretty smooth & silky in terms of texture, and the creamy / cheesy flavours was just nice. The middle part was nicest as it was slightly more moltenish compared to the sides. Didnโt like the crust at all though. This does get jelat so thankfully I had a thin slice.
Ahh so disappointing... this could have been much better, had it been served warm. You can see that the part of the ice cream on the cake wasn't even melting. The cake itself wasn't sweet, the sweetness comes from the super sweet toffee sauce. The combi of the vanilla ice cream, sticky date cake and toffee sauce was not bad, the components balanced each other out. Cake could have been more moist tho. Might try this again, and hopefully it'll be warm this time bc warm cake/sauce contrasting with the cold ice cream would taste so much more satisfying.
My first cookie dough experience after seeing all the videos online but honestly sobbles... ok honestly I think Dohkie does pretty good cookie dough like if the doughs were baked I think it will be such FAB cookies eh I can imagine!!! Cor the matcha, I could taste the bitterness of the matcha powder (and the white choc chips were yummy too) & the choc chip has sugar granules which was pretty fun to bite into tho slightly sweet. But... i felt that I was eating play-dough and each mouth was heavy ๐ฐ and couldnโt eat much after a few mouths sobsss maybe itโs just me and cookie doughs!!! Would choose ice-cream anyday!!
The baklava came as part of the set menu! Itโs alright. The filo layers could have been more crisp, otherwise this is a decent baklava but Iโve had better. Itโs sweet (all baklavas are), and I liked the nuttiness of it. Itโs small, and I shared it so it wasnโt too saccharine.
Ahhh this was quite nice! The sticky date cake was soft and aerated and not very sweet, serving as a good vessel to absorb the caramel sauce. It is pretty sweet, but I shared this with my family & I enjoyed my share of it :) The crunchy bits are also really sweet! Would have preferred a vanilla ice cream instead of cream, and had the cake been served hot it would have been better. Still, this was not bad, worth a try!
Iโm not a cookie person, but I must say this was quite nice! It was cronchy, and the flavour of the base was not bad. The choc is of good quality! $3.70 for this is reasonable considering that itโs pretty thicc. Worth a buy :)
Got the 1-1 with the burpple beyond deal and opted for their basic flavours without needing to top-up haha ok their waffles are really pretty good batter is yummy and buttery and fluffy! Waffles were hot when served and the sides were so so crispy!!! But the ice-cream at least for both flavours tried were pretty meh :-( coconut cream was overly milky couldnโt taste much of the coconut flavour and for the vanilla flavour, my friends equated it to ikea vanilla beans sobs so prob try the other flavours if you are here!
Queued about 20 mins for this on a Sunday morning (~11am) and I must say, these were worth the queue! Had previously gotten a box of donuts from them last year, and found that the fillings were a little flat in flavour. This was not the case this round! Liked the genmaicha & caramelised banana best - the genmaicha had a nice roasted tea flavour that shone through, and the banana had a nice natural sweetness which I liked. The chocolate was good too, it was rich and there was a slight alcoholic taste (they didnโt indicate it was alcoholic, so Iโm confused) but we enjoyed it too. The vanilla bean flavour was unfortunately overpowered by the alcohol, which wasnโt very nice.
The donuts were all fluffy and fragrant, plus they werenโt greasy!
So glad to have seen them come so far :) I would definitely repurchase if I find myself in the east!
