Although i generally prefer savoury foods to sweet stuff, i'm extremely partial to chocolate. Brownies, chocolate tarts, truffles, chocolate macarons, Krispy Kreme's Chocolate Dreamcake.. heaven!







This is an entire brownie tray from The Brownie Factory, located at the basement of Takashimaya Shopping Centre. While it wasnt as moist and dense as the one from Borough Market, it tasted pretty good once i warmed it up and drizzled some chocolate fudge over it. That being said, I probably wouldnt buy one for myself anytime soon (this was a gift).










Desserts at Adam Road Food Centre






Teck Kee Desserts at Adam Road Food Centre is my fav stall for local desserts, esp the cheng tng and tau suan! So i dragged my friends down after dinner at Newton Circus FC..





Their cheng tng is really famous cuz the tong shui is not too sweet, and you can really taste the outcome of hours of boiling the dried longans, red dates, winter melon strips and lotus seeds. Like Siew Mai, I can never get enough of gingko nuts, so each time i order cheng tng I'll add an extra portion of gingko nuts (at a dollar more). I think Teck Gee's cheng tng is the only one that can rival the famous cheng tng from Zion Road Food Centre.





The tau suan here is one of the best around simply because it isnt too starchy or watery, its not too sweet or too bland, and the you tiao pieces always taste fresh and not stale. At $1.20, its very reasonably priced too!






Ice kachang with only gula melaka- my parents eat their ice kachang this way and its a habit i've gotten used to. The not-too-sweet gula melaka (brown sugar sauce) topped with cream corn tastes really good...and for me, the best part abt eating ice kachang is digging for 'treasures' beneath the mountain of ice! I love the red beans and chin chow bits... :) i remember causing Siew Mai's red bean ice to collapse once at a HK Cafe cuz i was happily digging for the hidden 'treasures' below...oops.

Typical British Junk Food from the London Rugby Sevens

And guess what was for dinner? Domino's! The best junk food pizza you can find in the UK. The crust is so good and fluffy you can eat it on it's own!







Check SpellingCupcakes from The Hummingbird Bakery @ South Kensington - Near my School





A Dozen Chocolate Dreamcakes:)



Chocolate Dreamcake from Krispy Kremes - My favourite flavour and ever since I learnt of this flavour I seldom order any other flavours. Filled with a rich chocolate fudge filling, topped with chocolate icing and finished with white and dark chocolate curls, this is simply chocolate heaven. That turtle's our daughter Noobie. She loves Krispy Kremes too. Wait till you see our son Noobert:)
