As a dessert lover, I’m always on the hunt for bakeries that offer unique and innovative treats. At Polar Puffs & Cakes, a homegrown chain with multiple outlets, I discovered picture-perfect pastries, cakes and tarts that exceed expectations on both taste and presentation.
Stepping into the cafe, I was dazzled by the rainbow colors and perfect swirls adorning the flawless creations on display. From matcha lava tarts to cotton-soft Swiss rolls and cream puff “clouds”, the variety is endless. After much deliberation, I settled on sampling their signature snowskin mooncakes and mango pomelo sago dessert.
Biting into the snowskin mooncakes revealed a lush red bean paste filling encased in a soft, chewy snow-white skin, living up to its name. The mango pomelo sago tangoed mango cubes and pomelo bits in a sweet syrup pooled with floral sago pearls. Each component complemented the next – a fruity dance in my mouth.
Everything I tried was intricately assembled and as delicious as it appeared. While the pricing is on the high side, the quality of ingredients and creativity makes it worthwhile for an elevated bakery experience. Just looking at their cakes and pastries is a treat itself!
