cock brand Posted April 23, 2010 Report Share Posted April 23, 2010 Agreed. :clap: :clap: :clap: :clap: :thumb:Sorry folks, Lana's chocolate fudge cake used to be quite good but it was many years ago.While others had improve so much, they still remain like in the 80's where people's taste were less discerning.Many other bakeries are already using better ingredients like Belgian and Valrhona chocolate for their ganache and they are still using flavoured fudge.The following has some of the best chocolate cakes in town, try and taste the difference.Choc.A Bloc in Bedok Awfully Chocolate The PatissierPatisserie Glace Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Cake Lover Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 Totally agree with cockbrand. Not that i like to diss a local brand, but they have indeed stagnated since the 80's. Taste in chocolate cakes have evolved thro the years and that sort of simple fudge doesnt cut it anymore. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Panda_9791 Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 I agree with Bro Cockbrand. The Patissier sells really nice cakes, but kinda pricey. I stop going to Lana and choose to go to Awfully Chocolate. I always tell my friend Awfully Chocolate cakes are like Lana's, but without the attitude... Quote Koh Samui, I need u...

Guest guest Posted April 24, 2010 Report Share Posted April 24, 2010 [Actually cedele also has a very nice choco cake. i think it is call choco fudge... or somthing like that. it is with choco powder on the top... very nicequote name=Panda_9791' date='25 April 2010 - 12:52 AM' timestamp='1272127942' post='152672]I agree with Bro Cockbrand.

Atticus Posted April 25, 2010 Report Share Posted April 25, 2010 Quite sometime ago I tried Lana's, I took a bite and had to stop.It was quite bad, even Prima's tasted better than Lana's.Although I agree Awfully Choc has good chocolate cake, I find their cake prices a little too high.(For cakes that might be made in malaysia).Obolo in Joo Chiat is another place to consider, it's quite similar to the Patissier.

Atticus Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 cedele has got a choc espresso banana cake that is pretty good.I tell my friends not to eat cakes with banana, unless the banana is baked with the cake.Most hotels with their own pastry kitchen has above average chocolate cakes.Cove(there's one in paragon, but not sure if I spelled the name correctly), has very good sacher too.

cock brand Posted April 27, 2010 Report Share Posted April 27, 2010 I tell my friends not to eat cakes with banana, unless the banana is baked with the cake.What is the reason please.There are quite a few cake shop selling chocolate cake and also cheesecake with sliced fresh banana inside unbaked! For chocolate cake, I also like the ganache laced with brandy, orange and mint flavour. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Also, their price is quite reasonable as well. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Atticus Posted May 6, 2010 Report Share Posted May 6, 2010 What is the reason please.There are quite a few cake shop selling chocolate cake and also cheesecake with sliced fresh banana inside unbaked! Yup the Chocolate banana cake from Secret Recipe is what I tell my friends to avoid too. But their cheese cakes are quite good. Having baked for about 20 yrs, the two cakes that I'll avoid eating are cakes with fresh bananas and tiramisu.However, please don't let me scare you off. It's just one of those personal things.It's like you often hear people saying they do not eat otah after knowing how it's made, but nobody actually suffered from eating it.

Tiramisu i guess its probably the presence of raw egg yolks? I bake too but I dont avoid any particular baked goods. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Baking_Kola Posted July 17, 2010 Report Share Posted July 17, 2010 Oh btw , if u into fresh cream cakes or rather "FRESH" cakes , try Flor Patisserie , he is the man behing Patisserie Glace last time ... ( so means to say , Glace got no more Japanese chef there ) , most are same flavour with a different touch. Place bit ulu , near to the old Glace but , just love the freshness of it !
