Bought the strawberry shortcake n macaroons from Châteraisé Patisserie at Isetan, Westgate. There is always a long queue at the counter but there was not last Friday. Probably because it's near the end of operation hour? Isetan supermarket staff started to cover the fridge at around 9.30pm. Anyway, out of curiosity and the urge for sweet stuff plus there's no queue, I bought the cake and macaroons on impulse :D
Strawberry shortcake (S$4.70)
Verdict: Cake is soft, moisture level and sweetness is just nice. Cream is light but abit too sweet. The fruits on top is fresh and not too sour. Châteraisé staff said I could keep the cake in the fridge for 2 days but I wanted to have it as fresh as possible so I had it the next late afternoon.
Macaroons (From top clockwise) - Raspberry, matcha and caramel (S$2.50 each)
Verdict: All are too sweet for my liking. The sweetest will be caramel, followed by matcha and raspberry. For matcha, can't really taste the matcha flavour, was rather disappointed. As for the raspberry, the sourness helps to tone down the sweetness abit. But overall, they are too sweet for me. Still prefer laduree which is less sweet.
Set up the table for afternoon tea :D
