This is a very small patisserie selling Japanese inspired crepe cakes, gelato, milkshakes, crepes, pastries, and hot drinks. They are known for their crepe cakes with 20 razor-thin crepes with pastry cream between each layer. There are other items such as caramelized popcorn, smash hearts, hot chocolate bombs, dried flower arrangements and gift boxes.
I ordered the following:
1. Mini Egg Crepe Cake (slice, $10.95).
This is a limited edition cake for Easter, with its pastel colours.
2. Vanilla Crepe Cake (slice, $10.95).
3. Basque Burnt Cheesecake (mini, $4.25).
4. Souffle Cupcake ($4.50).
The crepe cake slices are so smooth and full of flavour. It was fun seeing if you could pull apart one of the crepe layers. The Mini Egg with crushed mini eggs on top was pretty and lightly sweet. The Vanilla uses premium vanilla beans from Madagascar and the top layer has torched sugar.
The Basque Burnt Cheesecake has delicious soft runny cream cheese inside.
The Souffle Cupcake has a very airy interior; quite a surprise for me.
I was lucky to meet the owner, Christinn Hua. She has such a passion for what she does. She told me they use the best quality ingredients for the pastries and gelato. With the recent huge food price inflation, sherefuses to cut back in quality ingredients so it is a big problem to solve.
Christinn and her staff are so courteous and helpful.
There is no indoor dining. In warm weather, there would be 2 little tables and some chairs in front.
During pandemic times, there is plexiglass at the staff area. The staff wear face masks.
There is no free WiFi. The patisserie is wheelchair accessible. There are no customer washrooms. There is very limited paid street parking.
