We set out to create a cake.. so marvelous.
One that HAD to contain melted dark chocolate in the batter
and wow does it do wonders
A deep and dense chocolate cake which is fudgy and bold with flavour simultaneously
Ripples of Brewed Coffee + Cardamom roam this spectacular cake
whilst the coffee buttercream & chocolate drip creates beautiful ripples of contrast
*Please note: no two of our items of the same flavour will ever be identical in decoration.

From the moment of unveiling, it was clear that my birthday cake was not merely a dessert, but a veritable masterpiece of confectionery art. Procured by the discerning taste of my household's chief executive (my esteemed wife), the cake presented itself as a rich tapestry of flavours, each more sumptuous than the last. The structural integrity of the cake was impeccable—a harmonious blend of sponge, chocolate, and cream that held under the weight of a diverse bounty of seasonal fruits. Each slice was a study in balance: the richness of the cake, which might on its own verge on overwhelming, was masterfully counteracted by the tartness and zest of the fruit topping.
We walked in to collect our cake, and loved the smell of incense burning in the shop.
Unfortunately, our cake's meringue topping was being made while the incense was burning, and when we ate it later, that's all we could taste. Most unpleasant. the cake itself was a bit too dense and claggy for our taste.
Dead and dying plants in dried-out pots everywhere were disappointing. As was a cake under a cloche on the counter with days-old fruit that had completely dried out.
All-in-all, a disappointing experience which we will not repeat.
