AMAZING
1st PINK GUAVA OOLONG
Yellow Bake Day SS2, Petaling Jaya
Pink guava compote, guava chantilly, oolong chantilly and fresh grapes all sandwiched in between the softest, fluffiest oolong chiffon. Mein Gott this was amazing!
2nd TRES LECHES CAKE
That Last Slice, Subang Jaya
“A type of "wet" cake that's just light, fresh and milky. Vanilla genoise drenched in three types of milk, topped with whipped mascarpone and a light dusting of cinnamon.” So freaking amazing. So light so good so everything! This cake was delivered to me as a gift from the sibling as we are unable to meet up because of the Restricted Movement Order. It’s really too bad (or is it? 😈) that I can’t share it... 😜
3rd NANGKA WHITE CHOCOLATE CAKE
That Last Slice, Subang Jaya
Birthday cake one year ago that I never managed to post. No cake this year as March 18 is the first day of the Restricted Movement Order/Movement Control Order/Controlled Movement Order 😅. This cake was heavenly. Light, fluffy with just the right amount of nangka (jackfruit) without it being too overwhelming. That Last Slice certainly has excellent cakes!
4th ONDE ONDE
The Augmented Cafe, Petaling Jaya
Fragrant pandan cake layered with cream and topped with shredded coconut and shaved gula melaka. Love this cake interpretation of our local favourite onde onde kuih. The cake itself was soft and fluffy, with the gula melaka adding just enough flavour without being overly sweet. A must-try!
5th CHRISTMAS SALTED CARAMEL GINGERBREAD CAKE
Kooky Cream, Petaling Jaya
Love. So much love. Wish I could take a better picture but this place has really dim lighting. You’ll just have to take my word for it that it’s a really good slice of cake.
6th HONEYCOMB COFFEE CHIFFON
MAD COFFEE, Puchong
“Edible” honeycomb, earl grey chiffon, espresso infused cream, caramel nuts. For a limited time only but it’s on our repeat list for as long as it is available. This is insanely good.
8th RUM & RAISIN VALRHONA CHOCOLATE MOUSSE
Swich Cafe, Petaling Jaya
Celebrating my 1000th post with this uber boozy cake which I ordered for an uber special person. “Valrhona chiffon cake layered with premium dark Valrhona chocolate mousse, generously speckled with rum-infused raisins and smothered with a silken robe of smooth Valrhona ganache…” I went a little crazy and added on an extra shot of rum, chocolate curls, gold leaf deco and macarons. They couldn’t fit the macarons on the cake and ended up sending it to me in a separate box. I guess I got carried away… 🤣.
9th NEAPOLITAN
The Augmented Cafe, Petaling Jaya
Strawberry cake with bits of fresh strawberries, vanilla cake and chocolate fudge cake with a chocolate mousse. It’s like eating neapolitan ice cream in cake form. So good!
10th PANDAN SLICE
The Midnight Baker, Kuala Lumpur
It’s a simple cake. Just pandan. But boy, do they do it right. Made with no artificial colouring or flavouring, this cake was moist and fragrant with the smell of pandan. That intense green colour comes from the generous amount of pandan juice painstakingly extracted from many, many pandan leaves. Pairs well with coffee.
REALLY GOOD
11th SPICED PINEAPPLE
MadHatter Desserts, Kuala Lumpur
Spiced pineapple compote, gula melaka curd, citrus sablé. So good that we came back here 3 times in less than 10 days to try more things.
12th TAARTJES - KOKOS CHOCO
Native Haarlem - Koffie, Haarlem
Coconut and chocolate slice which I believe is gluten-free. That chocolate layer was just so spectacularly smooth and the coconut layer was not overbearingly cloying. They had a few other flavours which looking back I wished we had tried as well.
14th BEACH, PLEASE CHIFFON
MAD COFFEE, Puchong
Coconut pandan chiffon, salted coconut cream, biscoff crumble, sliced bananas. It’s like eating clouds, so fluffy and soft… [seasonal]
15th BLUEBERRY EARL GREY CHIFFON
MAD COFFEE, Puchong
Fluffy earl grey chiffon cake (and I mean REALLY fluffy!), blueberry filling, fresh yoghurt whipped cream, fresh blueberries. This was so, so good. It’s a ring cake, so the centre part gets filled up with a light and fluffy blueberry cream, and then they cover it up with a tangy yoghurt whipped cream, top it with some fresh blueberries and ta-dah! Diet out the window…
16th DURIAN CAKE
Maco Cake and Bread | Bakery, Kuala Kubu Baru
Had to drive an hour out of the city to get this cake but was totally worth it! Soft pandan sponge layered with durian and fresh cream. As light as a cloud!
18th LEMON POUND CAKE
The Stolen Cup, Melaka
Good. But the best one we’ve had is still in Ipoh. And yes… we go on road trips around the country for lemon cakes.
19th APAM BALIK CHIFFON
MAD COFFEE, Puchong
Seasonal chiffon cake in celebration of our National Day. Pandan coconut chiffon with homemade brown sugar peanut crunch, sweet corn and gula melaka cream. This is magic. Somehow MÄD managed to translate our beloved apam balik into a chiffon cake and it was fabulous! We spoke to one of the co-founders and she confessed that this is her current favourite chiffon cake. It’s available until Malaysia Day but if the response is good they may consider making it a permanent item on their menu. Yay! Selamat Hari Merdeka! 🇲🇾🇲🇾🇲🇾
21st CHOCOLATE CARAMEL GINGERBREAD BAR
That Last Slice, Subang Jaya
Chocolate sponge, soft salted caramel, valrhona dulcey crunchy pearls, dark chocolate gourmet glaze and gingerbread cookie glaze. Definitely a great combination of flavours and textures. Eeeeeeee… so good!!! I love anything with gingerbread so this was definitely a winner in my books 😄. Merry Christmas everyone! 🎄💝
22nd RUM RAISIN VANILLA BAVAROIS
DailyTasteArt Uptown, Petaling Jaya
Alcohol level 40%. Blame it on those rum-soaked raisins.
23rd ROKU GIN ALMOND DACQUOISE
103 Coffee - Chow Kit, Kuala Lumpur
Roku Gin lemon chantily cream, Roku Gin chocolate ganache & almond dacquoise. Boozy.
24th XMAS GATEAU
Champignons Patisserie, Petaling Jaya
* Merry Christmas and Happy Holidays!! * Coffee chocolate mousse, Guayaquil 64% dark chocolate ganache, hazelnut cake, milk chocolate crumble. Festive and yummy!
26th MANGO SHORTCAKE
Sipping Corner Cafe, Puchong, Puchong
Filled with chunks of fresh, sweet mango. Light and delightfully refreshing!
27th WATERMELON LYCHEE CAKE
Sipping Corner Cafe, Puchong, Puchong
Lychee rose gélee, watermelon mousse, lychee pulp centre, green tea sponge. All the flavours were delicate and light without canceling one another out. This cake was refreshing, for want of a better word and easy to finish on your own. Nice!
28th WONDER WOMAN
Sipping Corner Cafe, Puchong, Puchong
Dark chocolate ganache, dark chocolate mousse, raspberry centre, almond shortbread. Wow. That bittersweet dark chocolate pairs so well with the slightly tart raspberry centre. And the almond shortbread gives a crunchy texture to contrast with the smooth, melt-in-your-mouth mousse. So good.
29th WATERMELON CAKE
Naj & Belle Megah Rise, Petaling Jaya
Lychee sponge cake, cream, almond dacquoise and juicy sweet watermelon topped with some luscious strawberries.
30th PANDAN GULA MELAKA CAKE
Hideaway Cafe, Petaling Jaya
Chanced upon this quaint little cafe after our lunch at Round that claims to serve “Old fashioned cakes just like how grandma used to bake”. This pandan gula melaka is supposedly one of their top sellers so we had to get a slice to try. It’s soft and fluffy and packed with natural pandan flavour, with some contrasting texture from the aromatic gula melaka and coconut topping. I had to exercise every ounce of my willpower in order not to get another slice to go. Very nice!
31st ROKU GIN MATCHA FOREST
DailyTasteArt Uptown, Petaling Jaya
I know there’s matcha, I know there’s gin, I know there’s some boozy cherries in there. Not a bad thing at all.
