Favourite 'Sweet Eats' of 2015

I've come to my final post on my series of my personal favourite foods of 2015 with my favourite 'sweet eats' of 2015, which (incidentally) is a rather short list since I don't indulge in desserts that much (unless it's shared with friends) as I'll have to finish an entire dessert on my own (when dining with family who don't fancy eating sweet things at all).  

You could say that I'm more of a 'savoury' person than a 'sweet' person.....no, no, no (that didn't quite come out as well as I intended it to).  So, let me rephrase...I prefer savoury over sweet eats (ah, that sounded loads better)! ;D

Fatbaby Ice Cream

I'm a fan of Fatbaby's ice cream and I absolutely loved the Lemon Blueberry that offers bright, fresh and citrusy flavours...definitely for those who don't like their ice creams sweet.  The classic all-time favourite of Vanilla (made with real vanilla beans) is another great choice for a dose of pure creamy goodness! ;)

Second Sunday

I enjoyed the fluffy and not overly sweet Local Pankek with its fragrant pandan and coconut flavour.  The caramelised bananas and toasted coconut flakes add another dimension to the pancake.

Ohla Tapas & Cocktails

The luscious dessert of caramelised bananas with the house-made, intensely flavoured, beautifully quenelled banana ice cream with dark chocolate candies tastes as good as it looks.

Strangers @ Forty 7

Adam's Sin is a sinful little dessert of a sweet crepe with vanilla ice cream and cinnamon infused apple cubes for a marriage of sweet and tart flavours.

Beam

'When Tea Meets Coffee' is a meet-up you want to be a part of.  Immensely light and spongy, this jasmine tea infused cake with a shot of coffee caramel is a cake that non-sweet enthusiasts will embrace with glee.

The 'It's Real Banana' Cake is a real banana cake alright with an intense banana flavour and real chunks of banana inside that you'll gladly down a few more pieces of! :D

La Casa

The sweet treats of Mont Blanc and Lemon Tart are bites of pure bliss with lovely pureed chestnut hiding whipped cream in the centre and a smooth, zesty lemon-flavoured curd in a buttery shortbread crust that's ever so luscious and refreshing...double yums :)

But the Sweet Pleasure of Valrhona chocolate is the 'icing on the cake' with not-one-but-three decadent layers of chocolate ganache, chocolate mouse and tempered milk chocolate....now, that's a slice of heaven indeed!

2 Scones 1 Cup

One whiff of their freshly baked scones in nine different flavours makes you feel like a kid in a candy store....which ones to choose?  Have it with the usual clotted cream and strawberry jam or kaya and butter for a localised interpretation.

Wild Sheep Chase

You don't have to go on a 'wild sheep (or goose) chase' to get your hands on this extremely fluffy, light and airy Vanilla Souffle with a soft, creamy melt-in-your-mouth texture.  
It's certainly a thing of beauty and great happiness! ;)

Flingstones

This unique One Night with Cendolman basically mimics eating "cendol" but in cake form...with pleasurable interspersed layers of pandan cake, gula melaka, sago and coconut cream.

And it wasn't possible to end my 'sweet' post without a small (but deserved) mention of some of the wondrous coffees (from Yellow Brick Road, Beam, La Casa & Flingstones), lovely tea (from Wild Sheep Chase), fine mocktails (from Ohla) and refreshing fruit juices (from Iberico & BreadFruits) I had over this past year.

Just like a meal ending with desserts.....it's always nice to end on a sweet note!  And on that note, you may want to check out my favourite 'sweet indulgence' of 2014 to see what sweetened my lips last year.  We all enjoy our sweet escapades every now and then...if only they were guilt-free! ;)
