Being a sweet tooth aka dessert queen, we could not resist any cakes when we spotted them. Therefore we got home a medley of cakes from Henri Charpentier @ Orchard Central and came up with this post, Top 6 Fave From Henri Charpentier.
Top 6 Fave From Henri Charpentier
At Henri Charpentier, they offered an array of cakes and we savour them all and decided the top 6 Fave From Heneri Charpentier. We struggle to decide the top 6 from Henri Charpentier since they were all so delish.
Short Cake
The best seller at Henri Charpentier is the Short Cake ($9.50). A straweberry shortcake with abundant strawberry amidst the fragrance cream sandwiched between fluffy vanilla sponge cake.
Matcha Roll
Soft-fluffy matcha-flavoured sponge with cream in the centre. And there is a chestnut too provide some texture and nuttiness flavour to the cake.
Lemon Tart
One of my favourite is the Lemon Tart. A good balance of sourish and sweetness in the Lemon Curd and the meringue on the top offer more sweetness to cut through the sourness especially for those who love it sweeter. The pastry tart was buttery and crusty and thin too.
Chocolate Florentine
Chocolaty in the overall with nutty flavour. Overall there was a good balance.
Double Cheesecake
Double Cheesecake is one other popular item at Henri Charpentier. Smooth and rich cheesecake meant for cheesecake lovers.
Mille Crepe
Lastly, the Mille Crepe. The cream between the many crepe layer was light and the best part was adding a layer of thin sponge at the bottom to provide both additional texture and fragrance to the otherwise flat crepe cake.
NAHMJ Verdict
Though the cakes at Henri Charpentier was pricey however a sweet indulgence sweet treat once in a blue moon is still a great way to reward ourselves. We will return for the top 6 fave from Henri Charpentier for a generous sweet extravagance.
