I bought six different cakes/desserts for a friend's gathering and I'm very impressed with everything. The staff was incredibly friendly, I didn't eat in at the cafe but it looked clean and minimalistic.
Pandan Swiss Roll Cake (forgot the full name) - not my personal favourite, but the pandan and coconut flavours really came through. I felt the cake's texture was dry but moistened with syrup, and the cream was similar to mock cream.
Pandan Lamington - Much better texture compared to the Pandan Swiss Roll; light, fluffy and not dry at all. The coconut compliments the pandan flavour very well and instead of cream inside, there was pandan flavoured jelly between the cake layers, which was a pleasant surprise and was a great change of texture. Just sweet enough and not sickly. I could probably eat 10 of these by myself.
Hojicha and Mango Swiss Roll Cake - Loved this one, the hojicha was present and the cake was moist. The sweetness of the mango balanced well with the slight bitterness of the hojicha.
Early Grey Choux - The Choux pastry was crumbly and had a nice, light sweetness to it that didn't overpower the Earl Grey cream. The tea flavour was not overly strong, subtle but clearly recognizable. Simple but tasty.
Raspberry and Passion fruit Basque Cheesecake - Wonderful raspberry flavoured cheesecake, it reminded me of berry yoghurt. The passion fruit layer was minimal, which I wished there was more of. The base was similar to biscoff cookies, and was quite thick, too. The texture was nice and dense which I loved.
Matcha and Yuzu Basque Cheesecake - Probably my favourite out of the ones I got (but I'm partial towards matcha), texture was the same as the cake mentioned above. Strong matcha flavour balanced well with the tanginess and sweetness of the yuzu. Again, I wished there was more of the secondary flavour throughout the cake.
Overall I loved everything from Folds. I will definitely be returning for more Asian inspired treats. Everything was flavoured just right and suits the Asian palette for not being overly sweet. Would love to try their high tea some time, too! I'll be recommending this place to all my friends and anyone who is looking for a nice cafe spot or any high quality desserts.
This bakery shop serves really delicious cakes and pastries. They sure know how to make their food look good. The staff is friendly, and the space has a warm and cozy vibe. I tried their durian rolls which were tasty. The cream was super delicious, and the durian sauce was amazing. The roll itself was slightly hard and didn't melt as easily as I hoped, which might mean it wasn't freshly made. But all in all, it was a nice treat. The matcha, however, was just okay in my opinion. Worth mentioning, the cakes are a bit pricey, all above $10 per piece.
This is where you can find Asian flavour patisseries!! The Kaya croissant was massive and super rich, definitely recommend sharing this. The cakes are also quite huge and yum !
The taro cake is vegan 🌱
They got a cute space to dine in as well, great place for a catch up with friends:)
