I opted for the more conservative choice of choco/hazelnut cake. The description reads "Dark chocolate mousse, caramelized toasted hazelnuts, crunchy praline feullitine, chocolate genoise enrobed in a shiny chocolate glaem".
Plain as it might look, a generous dose of gold dust on the surface makes quite a bit of difference. The overall presentation was simple and clean cut.
Upon cutting the Noisette, the mousse was found to be soft and slightly moist but not so much that everything falls apart. It was paradoxically soft yet firm. Carve a tiny piece with your little fork and put it in your mouth, and you'll be greeted with a wholesome melt-in-your-mouth sensation. After which, the contrasting sensation of the "crunchy praline feullitine" felt especially irresistible.
Best part of all is that the Noisette is neither too sweet nor too bland which makes it suitable for people of all ages, especially older people. It is also very light, which makes you want to go for that second helping.
Ordering a cake is extremely easy as all can be done online. Opt for the delivery if you do not own a car or even if you do, if you're not familiar with the Joo Chiat area. We took about an hour or so navigating which made the driver exclaimed, "The cake better be worth it!" It was. But next time, I'm opting for delivery.
Yes, there will be a next time. According to a friend, the macarons there are delicious. And I have yet to try their speciality, cheesecakes, yet!
And since V day is just round the corner, they've got a special limited edition creation V day cake in the shape of a heart. You might want to book early though as there are only 50 cakes available for ordering. Now is probably the best time to drop a hint!
