Tea at Flor Patisserie Bakery / Cafe (again)

After the First Visit to Flor Patisserie's Cafe / Bakery nearly two years back, I revisited it again this year, with *Katherine. The lovely glass panels and distinctive blue-white painted walls were still around, and it was nearly a comfort.

Located at 2 Duxton Hill, #01-01 Singapore 089588 , the number to dial is 6223 8628. One finds a wide array of fresh, light-flavored, fruity Japanese-inspired French pastries awaiting in their colors harmony, each looking more delectable than the other.

We chose the Afternoon Tea for 2 set, priced at SGD$16.80, where one could choose two cakes, and a small pot of organic tea. *Katherine took the organic berries tea while I had a separate order of Apple Tea (SGD$4.50). In contrast to its pretty settings and lovely-looking cakes, I was hoping they would serve their beverages with more matching tea-ware instead of a mug (the kind that looks like I brush my teeth with).

It had been a tough choice to pick out the two cakes we wanted, from a whole array of interesting looking flavors, but we settled on the Wakakusayma (green tea swiss roll, usually priced at SGD$7.60) - one of my favorites. Note that their texture is not exactly fluffy light or melt-in-your-mouth soft, but the sapid aroma of green tea was notably distinct, and the fruits were very fresh.

Next, we had the Strawberry Souffle (SGD$7.30 a piece) - soft as chiffon cakes are, and the fresh cream was delightfully sweet in a light manner. There were fresh strawberries adorning the top and seeping in between the layers of the cake, and we liked the presence of real fruits.

I also ordered an additional Iced Cheese Tart (SGD$3.40) in Original flavor - they were thoughtful to slice it up into quarters for us. The solid crust was a lovely contrast to the icy cream-cheese layer atop. The cheese flavor was light, and smooth, the way I remember it was during my very first visit.
