Desserts from Bakerzin Singapore

Bakerzin Singapore

After having dinner at il lido cafeteria, we wanted more desserts as the tiramisu was sold out.

I could visualize it like a treasure hunt, and in our hands, there’s a “Desserts in Suntec City” map. We were clueless about the exact location about the new Gobi dessert cafe at Suntec city so that one was out. By the time we got to Waffles Cottage and Swiss Culture, both places were already closed – and this left us with Bakerzin at Suntec, which I’ve mentioned in my list of Best Dessert Places in Singapore.

I’ve tried almost all the cakes at Bakerzin. While some of them were pretty impressive, the others failed to deliver. But overall, Bakerzin is still one of the patisseries in Singapore that serves consistently decent desserts.

Bakerzin Chocolate Souffle

I am not very good at fighting temptations.

Especially not when there is cake involved, and warm, molten chocolate oozing out from it. I know, I should have tried harder, but it’s difficult when I did not manage to satisfy my tiramisu cravings during dinner earlier. The Chocolate souffle was baked up to a rich shade of brown, with a classic bittersweet taste that will break the defense of any person effortlessly. Bakerzin’s Bailey’s Irish Cream Souffle ($8.80) may not be the best chocolate souffle in Singapore, but for half the price of a Max Brenner’s chocolate souffle — it’s good enough when the craving kicks in.

The main role of the ice cream is to make a 9.5/10 waffle to a perfect 10/10.

A good waffle doesn’t need ice cream to taste good. Ice cream should be the compliment, and not the supplement to a waffle. The picture of Bakerzin’s Waffle ice cream ($9.80) told the whole story. No offense to any Bakerzin’s fan out there, but the waffles were downright pathetic. Two thin and flimsy pieces of waffle with a super duper tiny scoop of vanilla ice cream. NEXT!

Bakerzin Cake

I hardly eat Black Forest cakes as I do not like the cherries, so I hesitated for a while when we saw the new Black Forest Cheesecake on display.

My hands trembled slightly as I picked up the fork. I poked and tested the surface – it was soft yet firm, and very appealing in the visual senses. Surprisingly, there wasn’t much of the cherries. Bakerzin’s Black Forest Cheesecake ($6.50) was airy and light. It didn’t have the classic heavy and overwhelming taste of the typical New York cheesecake. With a subtle hint of the black-forest cake, yet retaining the smooth and incredibly light texture – it was like having the best of both worlds.

On a different note, I am quite impressed by the new Bakerzin’s magazine-style menu. There are decadent shots of the food and cakes, and everything was done very tastefully.

Chocolate Amer & Blackforest cake are still my favourite at Bakerzin. Pity you don’t like the blackforest cake. haha. I like Bakerzin’s cheesecake for they are not as rich and heavy like those from cheesecake cafe.

Their strawberry shortcake is good! Not as fluffy as the ones you get in Japan, but definitely fulfills the cravings. (Like the one I’m having now past midnight)

what do u think of gelare waffles? Its so expensive but i find it quite nice. Though i always ask for ice cream on the side so it doesnt create a mashy waffle.

angeline: chocolate amer is the best! the blackforest cake is ok, but the blackforest cheesecake is even better! cos no berries inside lol

alison: haha yea i find their rendition better than canele’s one. but if u want good strawberry shortcake, check out glace, and tampopo deli : )

cleartear: gelare waffles are expensive! even with their “half-price” promotion on tuesday, i think it’s a bit overrated. check out haato’s or udder’s for better and cheaper waffles

natalie: WHOLE CAKE ON YR OWN? OMG! haha u serious? that’s a lot of cake!

joyce: yea i am not a big fan too, but on days where there’s no other desserts places around, i don’t mind having their cakes
