Assorted Creampuff ($22)
Seems like they used @craftteafox for their Matcha & Hoijicha creampuff, and I liked that the 🍵 Matcha Creampuff had such thick matcha cream filling and flavour was also pretty strong!
Actly enjoyed the 🌟 Hoijicha one even more as it was even stronger in flavour - defo for hoijicha lovers!
🍫 Chocolate was kinda rich, but the kind that got a little jelak for me tho. 🍓 Strawberry and 🥭 Mango were decent - those who like fruit flavours may enjoy it!
NGL the cream was pretty good overall in terms of flavour but the creampuff pastry/ outer casing were sadly really soggy from being "soaked" in the cream filling for a long time. Prob would be better to have them when they're freshly baked, as these were snagged close to their closing hours.
Saw many posted about @beansfactory.singapore when they went to Malaysia JB (esp the Mount Austin outlet), and having not had it before, I was pretty excited to find out they opened a new outlet in Singapore - Tanjong Pagar 100AM Mall!
Black Sesame Shaved Ice (Mix and match) ($10.60)
They have default combinations to pick from, or you can choose to mix and match to build your own bowls! Decided to build my own bowl so that I could try both their black sesame and taro, so this was my flavour combination - Black Sesame Shaved Ice ($6.90), Handmade Taro Paste ($2.50), Taro Balls (3pcs $1.20)
Black sesame was evident, altho a little too milky as I personally prefer v gao and thick black ssm flavours. The taro balls were a pleasant surprise - they aren't only colouring, each flavour was really distinct - i.e. you can taste Matcha in the green ball, and the sweet potato was also strong in the orange one! 🤤 Taro paste sadly got overpowered, so it might be better to pair this with their lighter Tau Fu Fah instead!
Wouldn't mind going back for their other desserts tho, and especially the chewy taro balls!!
Overall Rating: 7.5/10
I'm a huge fan of mango sticky rice, and it's actly rarer to find durian sticky rice! The durian puree here is pretty strong in durian flavour, altho the mango could be much sweeter. Sticky rice was soft and paired well with the coconut milk.
@jinhor.sg is located at Paya Lebar Square, offering a huge variety of desserts, including chendol, orh nee and black sesame paste, so you can check them out if you're in the area 😉.
Premium Coconut ($12.90)
Coconut Jelly, Coconut Icecream, Ruby, Chin Chow, Mango Cubes, Crystal Konjac, Mango Stick Balls. Really liked how they're so generous with the different variety of ingredients, and they also gave a cup of sweet coconut water at the side! The coconut Icecream was defo my favourite, with it providing strong coconut flavour 🤤, altho would prefer if the ruby could be chewier/ have more flavour.
Sadly I didn't really taste much pistachio at all , so was kinda disappointed but I heard good reviews about their macarons so they prob have way better flavours that might be worth a try!
Just come for the Cookie Mak and I'd prob be interested to try their other macaron flavours/ bakes next time considering there's Burpple 1-1 now!
Located at City Gate Mall, near Golden Mile Food Centre & Complex, this HBB turned phsycial store sells a good variety of bakes that's really tempting to the eyes 🤤!
Cookie Mak ($11)
This is a super sinful fudgey choc cookie that's made with Choc chips, honeycomb, and maltesers as fillings. The Choc fudge in the middle was really thick and slightly bitter I q enjoyed it. However, you got to share it because it's huge and would prob get jelak if you have it by yourself or even between just 2 pax 🤭.
Tbh don't remember much about its taste, would really just recommend going for their parfaits if you're here 🤭.
Overall Rating: 8/10
Loved that the extra side of sauce this time is actually Matcha sauce, to help elevate the matcha flavour in you parfait 🤭. They have Matcha Pudding at the bottom of the parfait, green tea icecream, sweet red bean paste, and nama chocolate here instead. Again, you get strong matcha flavour except a little sweet - similar to matcha KitKat's sweetness, but definitely a sweet treat I'd head back for!
[Nana's Green Tea]
Definitely couldn't give black sesame/ matcha a miss when I saw @nanasgreenteasingapore having such parfaits!!
Black Sesame Warabimochi Parfait Shiratama ($11.80++)
Their parfait came with Black sesame pudding, black sesame ice cream, red bean paste, and shiratama (mochi balls). The black sesame icecream was really strong in black ssm flavour!! It's pretty similar to Matchaya's intensity. There was also a side of brown sugar syrup to drizzle over, which you can omit if it's too sweet for you. NGL I even loved the addition of cornflakes, because of the additional crunch and flavour 🤤.
We are probably all fans of gelato, but it's even more enticing and less sinful when they are high in protein and low in sugar & fat content! They actually state the calories of each flavour so you can eat with less guilt knowing it's much lower than other usual gelatos!
Ube
This was definitely my favourite flavour, as the ube was quite strong and not too sweet!
Pistachio
Pistachio was definitely evident here, and it's the milky kind rather than the nuttier ones, altho it's still quite enjoyable!
Ruby Pink Milk Choco
This was pretty similar to what you'd get from milk choc, and I especially liked the pretty pink colour 🤭.
Earl Grey Lavender
Both earl grey and lavender were q prominent! Defo for lovers of these 2 flavours.
Do head down early as most popular flavours are usually sold out by evening! 🤭
Classic Spiced Hot Chocolate ($6.50)
This was really comforting especially on a rainy day, and the chocolate was decently thick and enjoyable!
Artisanal Tea ($4.50)
We tried their lychee rose tea, which was actually really light and mild, so you don't get very strong flavours here.
We tried the Vanilla & Milk Cream, and I loved how both barks contained a really generous amount of nuts which were both crunhcy and fragrant! My favourite got to be the Vanilla, because I'm a huge fan of White Chocolate, and you could really taste White Choc here.
