A late review. Am already at the Philippines and yet I haven't posted quite a number of my tastings in Ireland. I've been busy on other things as well, but I will try to post as much as I can before I forget about them.
We were in Galway City Centre when I saw these cute mini cakes. Here's the pic:
Why did I pic four cakes? It was only because my mom and I couldn't agree on the flavors :D
I can't remember the exact names of the ones in the upper right and bottom left, but all I can say is that they were the fruity ones. The mini cake with the strawberry was berry flavored, and the full flavor was quite intense. It was a mix of tangy berry flavors and just a hint of sweetness. As for the rectangular cake, it was also fruity, but as far as I can remember it had a milder taste than the berry cake. It also was not that sweet, which accentuates the taste of fruit more.
Side note: I checked the website, and I think the rectangular cake might have been Passion Fruit and Cassis Mousse and the Strawberry cake might have been the Red Berry Mouss. I'm not that certain though.
The one on the upper left is the Triple Chocolate mousse. Everyone's verdict: utterly divine. It was just the right amount for anyone wanting a bit of that decadent chocolate cake. It was also quite soft that it melted in your mouth. The amount of each layer was just fine, it blended well into that creamy chocolate taste in your mouth. Phew!
The last cake is the Black forest. Quite a surprise, isn't it? I was also intrigued by this cake since it was all white, and not a hint of chocolate in it. When I tasted it, viola! It was the black forest taste I have always known. The secret? It was the bottom layer that housed all the nuances of the black forest cake. It was a different take on the cake I thought I already knew.
