San Francisco, CA 94110
Occasion: Included in this post are of two different occasions. First came here with the BFF to try their foie gras cupcake, but unfortunately they were sold out, so we decided to try something else. 06.22.12/ 06.24.12
Peach Cube Cake
Buttermilk cake with peach jelly filling
Amazingly tasty. How could something so simple taste so good? The buttermilk cake is my favorite. It was soft, dense yet spongy. Not overly sweet with a touch of a tangy flavor from the peach. The top layer had texture of a mousse, nice and silky smooth.
Raspberry cube cake
with coconut, earl grey and almond
It's about $6 a pop, but it's so good. The cake itself is denser rather than fluffy. The flavors really take you away. There was not a lot of raspberry jelly, but as it hit my taste buds, it hit hard and the tartness of fruit burst in my mouth. It was not a rich dessert at all. Not only was it so beautifully made and presented, the tastes were phenomenally delicious. It was so worth the try.
This was what we had come for. The Devil Inside. Thanks to my bff for the special delivery.
The Devil Inside
Chocolate muffin cupcake filled with chocolate ganache and foie gras torchon topped with a toffee brittle
I guess it's not a good idea to have something so rich and tasty first thing in the morning. The cake was dense, the filling was creamy and the foie gras was subtle and not too overwhelming. The foie gras had a nutty flavor to it. The toffee brittle tasted burnt which I'm not too big of a fan of. Overall, it was a great experience, I just wished that the foie gras torchon chunk was bigger and more distinct. I'm glad I can say I got to try it before the ban. Yum!
