dulcet & studio, liang court, 2.0.

ever since i saw on instagram that dulcet & studio had a matcha roll cake, i've wanted to try it. so when i was at liang court one night and saw that they had it (it's been elusive- i haven't seen it each time i walk by) i jumped at the chance.

they were having some sort of promotion, so i ended up getting more than i had originally intended to. it was 3 for $12 for selected items, including the matcha roll. being the aunty value seeking person that i am, i hesitated for just a moment before deciding to just get three items. so i got the matcha roll (usual price $4.50), mont blanc (usual price $6) and corn eclair (usual price $5.20) for just $12- a pretty good deal i would say. never knew that dulcet and studio did such deals; i should pop by more often!



i liked the matcha roll best. it was on the sweet side, but the texture of the cake was fluffy enough to save it. the corn eclair was... strange. liked the filling inside well enough, and it was certainly visually appealing, with the corn bits on top, but they should've taken more care with the preparation of the corn. the corn was still attached to bits of the cob, making for a difficult eat. i didn't mind, but my sister and mum did, and they left the corn untouched. i didn't like the choux pastry- it was doughy and didn't taste fresh.

the mont blanc though, was a disappointment. it was way too sweet, and i could barely discern the chestnut taste. i like desserts, but i don't have that much of a sweet tooth, so i couldn't appreciate it.

the cakes were certainly pretty (as are all japanese cakes) but i think i'll stick to the milk puddings (mm...) and cream puffs next time.
