Marmalade Toast

A testament to my weakness for cakes, 3 days later on Thursday, 8 december, I went with my lovely classmates for tea (a break from all that shopping) at Marmalade Toast.

Having heard all the rave reviews, I had pretty high expectations of the cakes available and thankfully, they didn't disappoint!
There is a tea time promotion going on, where one can order any cake (except the meringue cake and chocolate fudge cake) and tea or coffee for $6.90. An extremely affordable price :)

Being extremely pragmatic( the typical Singaporean behavior), I chose the most expensive cake available, which was the carrot cake.

The carrot cake was moist and sweet, with ample walnuts to provide the needed crunch to the cake. The cream cheese frosting was lovely as well, although a tad too sweet for my liking.

My friends chose the chocolate truffle cake (which i also tried). This extremely sinful cake was worth the amount of calories that it contained. The "truffle" layer of the cake(2 thick layers) was smooth and velvety, and of course, rightfully chocolatety.

I have a personal preference for more cake-y chocolate cakes, so this truffle cake didn't resonate with me much.

The tea and coffee were of a decent standard and definitely a good companion with the cakes.

Overall, Marmalade Toast does live up to its reputation :) I would come back to try the chocolate fudge cake, or even maybe the cupcakes available. However, the obscure location means that some searching around needs to be done before locating the shop in Takashimaya.

A 8/10 :) (the great company made everything even better (: )
