To continue the cupcake craze, I spotted a fairly new cupcake stall. While my sister and I were shopping around Shangri-La (mall), we spotted a charming little stall in the middle of the children's section. We then wandered towards the stall and saw the huge "Frostings" sign. We were captured by the allure of their many cupcakes. I was captivated by so many wonderful flavors, I opted for the Brazo De Mercedes cupcake and the Apple pie.
A sweet crumbly concoction is what I'd describe the Apple pie (P35). The outer crust is somewhat tasteless, but the apple filling is really sweet and has a hint of cinnamon and spice. The streusel crumbled on top adds more texture to the cupcake and is incredibly sweet and chewy yet crumbly.
The Brazo De Mercedes (P35) is new flavor and is very appealing to the yes. It is a yellow cupcake filled with a yema like cream and topped with a heavenly amount of marshmallowy meringue. The cake itself was gain, kinda tasteless, but the yema cream was really sweet and balanced out the flavors. The meringue on top was super good. It was really sweet and sticky.
Frostings is a great alternative to other cupcake shops. The price isn't too high.
Frostings can be found in Rustan's in Shangri-La or Glorietta.
The other half of this post is the tantalizing tarts from Le Coeur De France.
Their tarts have always been one of the best for me. They come in numerous flavors like peach, mango and a mixed fruit. They are sweet, but not overly much. It satisfies my sweet craving. I got the peach tart. A flaky tart crust filled with a gelatinous, cakey sweet filling topped with the fruit offered and smothered in a sweet syrup is what makes this tart really tasty. My favorite part are the fruits and the filling. The filling is really hard to describe because it looks really different and indistinguishable, but all I can say is that it is really sticky and amazingly good. The fruits are just plain fruits, but when topped with the syrup, the flavors are really strong and brought out.
The tarts are kinds pricey, but they often have sales so you should definitely try some out.
