Taro-inspired Cafe in SG 💜😍

Taro/ yam-lovers, you guys are in for a treat as the popular HBB @whiskingbakes has set up a cafe along Crawford Lane, offering everything taro from tart balls to tiramisu!! 💜💜💜

• 𝐓𝐚𝐫𝐨 𝐒𝐰𝐢𝐬𝐬 𝐑𝐨𝐥𝐥 ($𝟓) 🌟

Different layers of texture and flavours unfolded as we took the first bite. The cake was moist and spongy with a nice density and eggy fragrance. The layer of fresh cream in between the sponge was light, allowing the yam aroma from the creamy yam paste to shine out. There's also a piece of mochi in the center, adding a pleasant chew to the cake.

• 𝐓𝐚𝐫𝐨 𝐁𝐮𝐫𝐧𝐭 𝐂𝐡𝐞𝐞𝐬𝐞 𝐂𝐚𝐤𝐞 ($𝟕.𝟓)

Each slice features a burnt cheese cake sandwiching a layer of yam paste. You can definitely taste the yam fragrance and mild sweetness from the yam paste itself but if you enjoy it together with the cheese cake, you can't exactly taste it except for a slight earthiness as the cheese cake flavour took hold of your tastebud. Of course, it's still a nice slice of cheesecake with the usual creaminess and cheesy tanginess.

• 𝐓𝐚𝐫𝐨-𝐦𝐢𝐬𝐮 ($𝟔) 🌟

It tastes more cake-like than regular tiramisu in my opinion though it captured the essence of one with the layers of cream and ladyfinger. The mascarpone cream was on the firmer side compared to the usual "wet" ones whilst the ladyfinger carried a faint taro milk taste followed by a layer of the same yam paste. Interesting creation and this has got to be the sweeter choice among the above (just right for a sweet-tooth like myself!)

💬 TLDR: Love their taro concept and how beautiful the bakes are and more importantly they are less sweet than regular desserts, great for all ages to indulge in. My favourite has got to be their 𝐎𝐫𝐡 𝐍𝐞𝐞 𝐓𝐚𝐫𝐭 𝐁𝐚𝐥𝐥𝐬 which I got to try when they are still a HBB.
