Located along Tanjong Pagar Road is a little cosy bakery/cafe that specialises in tarts and cakes. Together with my foodie friend Thara, we dropped by Delicatesse to try their delicious bakes paired with artisanal tea.
For our visit, we tried six different tarts and cakes that were available, paired with a pot of artisanal tea to wash down the sweetness.
Strawberry St Honore
The Strawberry St Honore ($9.50) is the first to catch my attention for its beautiful pink. It comes with strawberry macaroon and strawberry chantilly cream. Break into the tart to discover the delicious pistachio frangipane filling.
Mango Cake
I love mango, so I have to order the Mango Cake in a sphere shape. What you get inside the sphere are bavarois mousse, diced honey mango and vanilla sponge.
Matcha Mont Blanc
For the matcha lover, you will enjoy the Matcha Mont Blanc ($9.50) packed with aromatic green tea cream and chestnut mousse, resting on the almond tart.
Carrot Cake
My foodie friend loves the Carrot Cake ($8.50). It comes with delightful textural bites from the carrot sponge, cream cheese frosting, and milk chocolate walnut glaze.
Tiramisu
It is a unique way to present the Tiramisu in a dome shape. The combination of mascarpone mousse, light coffee biscuit, and coffee liquor-soaked sponge is light yet flavourful. Give the espresso in the pipette a squeeze to get a perk in flavour.
Raspberry Puff
Last but not least is the Raspberry Puff ($9.50). It is crispy on the outside and fluffy inside. The choux puff is stuffed with raspberry for a sweet and buttery finish.
Besides their selection of petite tarts and cakes, Delicatesse also sells a whole cake.
Note: This is an invited tasting.
