Arc-en-ciel Pâtisserie

Satisfied my strawberry parfait craving at the ongoing @kollabdesignstudio //@kenbakekeneat x @arcenciel.sg collab last week (snagged a reservation on the day)!

Available till 6 April, the Eve’s Garden Parfait ($33) was simply delish. Rather pricey but fairly understandable with the quality of the layered elements. Starting at the very top is a nutty pistachio dacquoise ring balanced on the rim of the glass, followed by a creamy scoop of Hokkaido milk gelato in the center with yummy lemon earl grey jelly, sweet fresh strawberries, airy cream, pleasantly boozy rosê wine jelly and tangy bold raspberry sauce!

Kiwi Passion fruit w basil n walnut mousse. Light, not too sour as well. Cute craving of kiwi on top

Must visit ! You can enjoy so detailed beautiful cakes. Nice to go with your friend and family to enjoy cakes.
Sure the cafe space are so clean and beautiful cozy place :)

With a higher cream-to-sponge ratio, the MAYU // classic strawberry shortcake ($12) was a fluffy, delicate number. Although I am usually not fond of cream cakes (tbh the amount of cream looked a little intimidating), I liked that the airy chantilly cream had a very gentle milky flavour which wasn’t cloying at all and complemented the fresh seasonal strawberries as well as the strawberry joconde sponge. Love that the fruit was aromatic and sweet. (Note that MAYU is available only on weekends)

A nice, quiet spot to hide from the merciless afternoon heat, Arc-en-ciel Pâtisserie was a more than pleasant find along Neil Road. Like a luscious chocolate cloud (with fun bits of crunch), the DALÍ // dark chocolate mousse cake ($11) was very enjoyable (albeit pricey). Layered with salted caramel dark chocolate ganache, hazelnut feuilletine crunch, and soft cacao nibs chocolate sponge; the cacao nibs whipped ganache was so smooth and light. The chocolate flavour was also pretty complex with hints of savouriness and nuttiness.

And what a thirst quencher, the Poire Mangue Tea ($10) was a brilliant blend with the slightly vegetal pu-erh tea base mixed with sweet pear and bright floral-tasting mango.

Cutie little cake, that’s sweet and sour, rather refreshing. The yakult exterior balances out the internal grapefruit filling. Love it. I paired with black tea, Summer Mango Tea ($7), to wash it all down
