| Ate Cynthia and her Chocolate Trovana Cake |
I\’ve tasted this scrumptious cake during our meeting in the workplace. I can\’t get over it. Really! I found out from my housemate Ate Cynth about this bakeshop in Kampung Bahru Road. I was like \”Hey! I see that shop everyday from work!\” Good thing, Renze gave Ate this luscious Chocolate Trovana cake that stirred my curiosity. Good thing, I ate this cake for free, twice.

After one busy work day, I dropped by at Chef Icon to see the goodies. The place is a cozy bakery and coffee shop where the smell of bread is a delight for my olfactory nerves. Artisanal breads and pastries are all over but what attracted me are the cakes. The counter is manned by the uber-friendly Chef Francis. He helped me with that to get. We also got to chit-chat a little about cakes, Philippines and work.

I tried the American Carrot Cake first. I\’m not a fan of fruit cakes primarily but it\’s not that bad. Just OK. As for the cheesecakes…HEAVENLY! Creamy, not too sweet, tasty and light on the stomach. It was a \”Ratatouille\” moment…there\’s fireworks 🙂
