The Audacious Cakery

So I chanced upon this little treasure when Nic invited me for a tasting session at The Audacious Cakery. Small yet spacious and cosy with delectable cakes and coffee.

Ideal place for a relaxing weekend. To top it off, it was drizzling when I was there so the ambience was really good. I sat outside with a cup of hot latte, cakes and good companies. My saturday evening was more than just satisfactory.

The cakes and cupcakes were all made in house from scratch using only the finest ingredients and they have the policy of throwing it away after 24 hours to ensure it’s freshness.

Caution: You will be so spoilt for choices that you just want everything.

I didn’t try the brownie but I am certain that they would taste as good as the cakes I had as well.

I can clear out the room for proper meals for desserts, anytime, anywhere.

Tried a variety of cakes that evening and my favourite was all the chocolatey ones.

I like Zacharie (yellow cake on the first plate, $7.80) a lot because I love cheesy food. Mango passionfruit cheese mousse with a mango passion fruit centre on a ginger biscuit base. Mmm.. now, how does that sound? Cheese, Mango, Passion fruit and Ginger. It has the creamy and smooth texture which I personally quite like.

Monet (the yellow cake at the second plate, $9.80) is one of the most unique cakes that day. It was actually orange mousse with champagne, served with a tart raspberry compote on a Cointreau soaked sponge studded with red currants. If you like the taste of alcohol, you would probably love the taste of it.

The Strawberry Shortcake ($6.80) was a little lighter in taste. It is made with fluffy white sponge, layered with succulent strawberries and luscious vanilla cream. I don’t really like strawberries because they can be really sour but don’t worry, the strawberries The Audacious Cakery used for the cakes were really sweet!

Now….. my favourite of the entire lot is the CHOCOLATE OBSESSION!

Ting ting! The one with gold sparkles!

I love sweet tooth so I tend to like my desserts to be slightly sweeter. I like how rich the dark chocolate was. Pssst, it will melt, so I would advise you to finish it as soon as you can to enjoy the texture and freshness of the cake.

Cupcakes were sold at $3.50 each, $20 for 6 or $38 for 12.

Matcha, Strawberry and Irish Cream.

Matcha cupcakes with matcha buttercream dusted with green tea powder and white chocolate curls.. mmmm.. Majority of the bloggers loved the Matcha one but my favourite was….

Tadah!! The Lemon Raspberry cupcake! I like desserts served with lemons or lime and I like the combination of the sweetness from the raspberry and the tinge of sourness from the lemon. Yums. The cream was extremely smooth as well.

Of all the cakes and cupcakes, the most favored food was the tarts. I had both the Lemon Meringue ($5.80) and Chocolate Souffle ($6.80) and like them both!

I would prefer chocolate souffle more because you can choose to have it served chilled or warm. You can feel the chocolate lava melting in your mouth.

When we speak desserts, one can never miss out macaroons. You have tried chocolate, vanilla, strawberry and whatsnot. How about some Earl Grey, Lemongrass or Salted Caramel?

And I found you guys a deal when I was there… Definitely one of the best deals around. Order 6 cupcakes to share and you can get a one for one cup of coffee or tea. Ideal place for friends who have nothing to do but just wanna chat and chill.

I was very surprised to my find poly mate working there! We used to be really close during our poly days and were in the same FYP team growing cancer cells. Hahaha. Time flies.
