My friends ordered me the celebration pig cake to jointly celebrate my bday and also ring in chinese new year. It was so beautiful that I didn't want to cut into it! The chocolate exterior had rivets in it which really perfectly mimicked the crispy skin texture of a roast pig LOL so that was a pretty cool technique. As for the flavour of the cake itself (raspberry chocolate mousse), it was just right! All my friends thought it was good and not too sweet. I liked that there was crackly texture thing goin on in between bites. I think there was nuts in the mousse layers. A welcome addition! I celebrated my bday at the Keg and when we told the staff to put it in the fridge for us they all exclaimed how cute it was and thought it was an actual roast pig LOL. We had a bit leftover at the end of our meal and I shared the remaining slices with our waiters. They enjoyed it!
Located at a corner of a very small plaza. I just wish they had one open in Markham. Came here on a weekend to pick up two slices of cakes. I love their cakes, they offer a variety of flavors. Got their mango cheesecake and 3:15 which is one of my favorites. My kids love their mango cake as it's layered with fresh mangoes and jelly. 3:15 is hong kong milk tea and I could certainly taste the hint of milk tea, not too sweet. Most of their slices of cakes are $7.75 each which is a little bit pricey so I don't get them too often just on special occasions. I'm not a big fan of macaroons but I've purchased them before to give to friends. They make them super cute, highly recommend checking this place out if you love macaroons!
Earlier this month, I wanted to get some macarons for a friend. It was a Saturday morning. I ventured out to a different place and noticed that it only accepted orders by appointment. Bummer. Plan B? Daan Go Cake Lab. This store was roughly a block north from the closed one. This cake lab is in a plaza with one-way traffic. I was pleased that I found a spot fairly close to the main entrance. I backed into this spot and headed inside. I was happy to see so many cute macaron varieties. Yay! It was tough to decide what to get. I went with six macarons. I got two each of the following: - Roasted milk tea (panda) - Black sesame (octopus) - Salted caramel (lion) I got the nicest woman who helped me with my order. She asked if I was a rewards member. I wasn't, but I signed up for it. You give your phone number every time you order anything from here. I paid with a credit card. I tapped and all was done. She placed the macarons in a nice box, and then placed the box in a paper bag with handles. I thanked her and left. My friend loved the macarons. Her favourite was the roasted milk tea. She had visited Paris a few months ago. For her to say that they were excellent was a good sign. I didn't realize that it came with a booklet of all macaron flavours until I ordered a box for my friend and me to share the following week at work. Yes, I visited this store twice in less than five days. I'm in macaron mode. I still am! I got the following flavours (two each) for us: - Roasted milk tea (panda) - White peach (cat) - Salted caramel (tiger) I am the only one in our group of three friends who has not been to Paris. My friend and colleague was there in September. He asked me what he should get when he was in the city before he left. I said macarons and anything in a bakery. He did get macarons and loved them. We ate all our macarons before lunch... haha! We loved all of them. I especially loved the white peach. So good! This place makes excellent macarons. It also has cake. I wouldn't mind getting one. You can also get slices if you don't want to devour an entire cake. A few years ago, on a Monday, my manager sent me an instant message and asked me where he could get a cake for his daughter's birthday that day. I wasn't thrilled that he waited till the day of her birthday to get a cake. It was also a Monday. Many bakeries like taking Monday off. Thankfully, this place was not. I suggested coming here because I've always wanted to get the tiramisu cake. I don't know what he got for his daughter. He told me that it was an excellent suggestion and I should suggest good eats for a living. I always had a feeling that this place was special. Christopher Siu won Masterchef Canada. It shows in the macarons and the care that he took with everything that he made on that show. I have finally tried the macarons and they are divine. I'll be back for cake (maybe not the durian one) and more macarons soon! (417)
I was gifted an amazing Daan go cake for my birthday, from my friend. I loved how realistic looking the bubble tea cake was. Flavor wise it was just as amazing as it looked. I love the way they provide unique cakes. I would definitely come back here and purchase these as a gift for others in my life. Thanks!
If you're a fan of Asian flavours in pastries, Daan Go is worth many visits. I've only ever ordered to go from here, and it's never disappointed. It's worth ordering in advance for anything larger, but the selection is abundant even when you walk in. The interior is very clean which allows you to focus on the cute baked goods they have in their display. Service here is efficient and welcoming; I'm always satisfied when I pay a visit!
It's Christmas time. My hubby gave me a great surprise with Daan Go cakes. We like their cakes because they always have new cakes and it always gives us surprised. It's not only a cake, but also delivers joy and fun. We like to guess what's inside and tear it one layer by another. This time Raman is the new one. The 2 pieces of chopsticks, Japanese decor on top are white chocolate, noodles tasted like mousse and some sweet pears at the bottom. The soup bowl is dark chocolate. Inside was a bit sweet, and dark chocolate outside could balance it at the end. We like to try again.
Have to get in early otherwise the selection dwindles, or preorder what you want! My toddler loves the pistachio dragon and we've gotten 6packs of just the dragon several times. The staff are always pleasant! Their holiday selection are extra cute with festive decorations on the characters.
Do not come here if you want real mooncakes. Do come here if you want desserts shaped like mooncakes. We had coconut, sesame, hazeulnut, pistachio, sesame, and other flavours. These cakes were so tasty and had cute designs.
Macarons so cute and so good! Can't go wrong to pick a few flavours to try. We tried a few of their cake flavours as well (pandan, mount blanc and 3:15) - I like how their cakes are light and not too sweet. They all have their distinct flavours so it all depends what you like. Small note, the mount blanc has a grainy texture and it was our least favourite out of all the cakes we've tried. - their durian cake is worth a try too if you like durian One of our favourite cake is their strawberry shortcake! I hope they bring that back during the warmer seasons. I'm happy they're expanding and they have a location closer to me in Richmond hill!
I ordered the durian cake for my birthday and it was OMG so amazing! If you aren't super into durian, this might not be the cake for you - they were really generous with the durian. I'm impressed by how they shaped it like a durian and layered the durian between the cake (it was a lot of durian - almost 80% of the cake)! Note it does taste (and smell) much stronger if you have it at room temp. For best results, pop it in the fridge and it will taste like you're eating frozen durian ice cream cake. Chef Christopher designs one of the most aesthetic cakes that cater to Asian flavours (or for those who don't like desserts that are overly sweet). This cake completely blew me away. Deserves another star for me.
Daan Go is the place to go for Asian flavored cakes, pastries and ice cream. They always seem to be doing something new and innovative which provides a fresh perspective and stunning desserts. The macarons were a beautifully and cutely crafted set. Make no mistake though, the flavor is spot on and just as good as the design. The cookies were light yet had a nice crisp. The filling is smooth and creamy with the flavors being represented accurately. Love the Asian flavors. We also had the chance to try their tiramisu in a cup. Super cute and eye catching design. Flavor is also on point. The marshmallow cat is the best part! Price: It is on the more expensive side but the quality and uniqueness makes it worth it!
The cutest packaging and presentation! I waited to preorder the gold thorn as it was sold out for a week (must be really popular). Also got a mango cheesecake slice too. The gold thorn was mindblowing!! 10/10. It was incredibly CREAMY and smooth with concentrate flavour. The flavour and aroma is so intense, it's like you're eating the real thing but in mousse form. Impressed that they use 100% durian puree. For $7.50, it's worth the price! And the rest of the layers were all light and delicious too. What a treat! The mango was okay. Smooth too and yummy, but taste more like a mango mousse than a cheesecake? I was confused to where the gold flakes were... Tip: check into Yelp to get 5% off your order!
Our go-to place for birthday cakes for the family! My parents have historically been used to fruit case and Black Forest cakes from asian bakeries that were $20-25.. and my brother and I were getting tired of them. Through Daan Go's incorporation of asian flavours, my parents have been willing to try new flavours trusting it won't be too heavy or too sweet! Their favorite is the Mont Blanc but they liked the peach and osmanthus jelly in the Peach Garden too! Just depends if they're in a fruity mood. I was able to walk-in same day without pre-ordering. Thank you Daan Go for saving us from less complex/flavorful cakes.

Delicious cakes. They have Asian inspired cakes that are delicious and not too sweet. One of my favourite cakes to get is the tiramisu cake. Highly recommend ordering their cakes and even their cute macarons! read more

This has been my go-to spot for cakes and macaron-fix lately! I'm a huge fan of strong coffee and tea flavours and I love the rich selections (and rich flavours!) offered here. My favourite is the Vietnamese coffee! Followed closely by Hong Kong milk tea, earl grey, and pistachio. The presentation is so adorable! These definitely make a lovely gift for kids or foodies in your life. You pay a slight premium for the creative designs but Insta worthy ;) Macarons are $3.50 each/ 6 for $20/ 9 for $30 Their signature cakes are also unique and super yummy. For the durian lovers in your life - the Gold Thorn is a must get for any special occasion coming up! It's so intricately made and sure to impress them (Note: however we were expecting it to be more gold/yellow and was slightly disappointed that there was so much green when we picked up the order so subtracting a star for misrepresentation but taste gets 10/10) read more

Absolutely delicious and stunning! I have been wishing to purchase a cake from Daan Go ever since Christopher Siu came to my school for a Master Chef event! All I have to say is that it went beyond my already high expectations! This was my first purchase for my birthday cake and all I can say is what an experience! The first bite of this cake was similar to the feel of taking a bite out of a cloud! The cake was extremely moist and fluffy with the mousse melting on the tip of ones tongue! Absolutely breathtaking! The detail on the exterior of the cake is nothing less than a masterpiece. Each and every spike on the durian is created with no imperfection. Not only is the colour spot on but the intricate details of the stem! Not only did the workers make such a gorgeous durian cake, but they also included three free adorable macaroons! The macaroons tasted amazing with my favourite being the Winnie the Pooh (mango flavoured). For sure a must try for anyone looking for an occasional dessert or just a casual urge for wanting to munch on something sweet! Totally worth the price! Will be back hopefully soon! read more

Daango is our go-to bakery for birthday cakes. Due to the recent circumstances and sudden craving for cake, we decided to order Daango on Ubereats. This is my first time trying the tiramisu from Daango. The cake was airy and the cream was not too sweet. I loved the slightly crunchy crust on the bottom. My boyfriend got the mango cheesecake. We've gotten the full size of this cake twice before and it's one of my favourites. I love the traditional New York Cheesecake but find it too heavy sometimes so the mango cheesecake is just right for my taste buds. Although it was well over $10 a piece for the cake slices after the Ubereats charges and tips, it really did satisfy my cravings and was well worth it. Honestly I'm tempted to order a whole cake for myself next time... read more

Very cute cakes! Especially if you are looking for some special ones like Durian flavour. Small shop, so if you are looking for a big cake you should order in advance! read more

We ordered the Montblanc cake online. After you submitted the cake order form online, you will see a message saying that the order has been received. No other confirmation is provided. So you just assume that they received it all right. It was. The cake was ready and the message was done right when we went to pick up the cake. The cake was delicious. We have also tried the 3:15 cake before but the Montblanc is much more flavourable. They are both not too sweet, unlike the Mango cake. Their Character Macarons are definitely instagram-ready. They gave you a card and you order by ticking the flavour you want. Some of them are way too sweet, e.g. blueberry. Ovaltine is a new flavour and is delicious. At $20 for 6 ($30 for 9), it's on the expensive side. But it may be worth it for your instagram/facebook likes. The staff look very unfriendly. When entering the store, they all stared at us without a smile and most definitely no "welcome". The Midland store was in a small plaza. Finding parking may be extremely difficult at times. read more
I finally made a trip to this place famous for macaron made into cartoon characters. The storefront looks pretty large, but it is kind of weirdly shape inside the store. Once I was inside, I felt a little claustrophobic since there were so many staffs working beside the counter doing various fondant cakes and other pastries. I guess one good thing would be that they were all produced in house. There were only around 5-6 bench seats available, so I chose to buy take out. There were six flavours that I have chosen which were: passion fruit, Earl grey, strawberry, salted caramel, Citron and black sesame. The characters were all so adorable, and I loved Tigger especially. I have yet to tried the flavours since they all looked so cute. I ordered a slice of peach garden as well. I felt it looked a little weird with a piece of strawberry and pink Sakura fondant flower as the garnishes, because it was called peach garden. The look of it I would say did not look really appetizing since the bottoms nuts layer looks a little mushy. However, I was really surprised about the wonderful flavours of the peaches in combo with osmanthus flower and the nutty layer. The only improvment would be to find a way to keep the bottom layer dry from the wet mousse layer. Nicely done! read more

I've been following Chris (Masterchef Canada Top 5) on IG for quite some time now and always heard great things about his cakes and macarons, so I was dying to try out this place! I came here with some friends on their grand opening day and they had a 10% off promo and they give you a 10% card off your next purchase. The store itself is tucked away in a small plaza. My friend got me the lemon tart (not too sour and soft like the meringue melts in your mouth), blueberry tart (taste just like blueberry yogurt/smoothie! taste better when it's refrigerated imo because it tasted more like blueberry cheesecake), and miso tart (have yet to try but apparently it's suppose to be sweet not savoury so that's an interesting twist). I really wanted to try the macarons. THEY ARE SO CUTE SRSLY. But honestly, they were a tad expensive so I'm going to have to hold back on that until I feel like splurging. My friend also surprised me with a customized rainbow cake. The top was decorated with some mini macarons and the inside was layered with the colours of rainbow and fruits! It's so pretty and the taste was very light and not too sweet. Probably targeted towards the Asian tastebuds. Even my mom who never eats cake said it was delicious! I'm really looking forward to what he had in store for the future and best of luck :) read more
Cakes here are sooo cute! I tried: Tira-meow-su - edible chocolate cup, really delicate and creamy Mascarpone cream, SO GOOD. Overall, the tiramisu inside the chocolate cup was delicious. Loved this one, definitely recommend. (Bonus, mine had a marshmallow kitty peeping out that looked like my cat LOL) Lucky duck - Lemon, Pistachio, Almond--- what a great combination! I really liked the balance of tartness and richness. The texture and overall flavours of this dessert were extremely enjoyable. I would definitely get this again. A slice of the diamond cake - Tastes like dark chocolate, hazelnut, passionfruit. This one looked really beautiful and my friend enjoyed it a lot (she enjoys desserts that are on the richer side). It was a bit too rich for me personally, and I didn't really like that there was a slightly harder layer within the cake so when you cut into it with your fork, the layers kind of fall apart! It wasn't too sweet, and the tiny diamond on top was super cute. The macarons are adorable as well, and the flavours really accurately match their flavours. I think my favourite was the HK milk tea so far--- but I definitely need to go back to try more! read more
An absolute joy coming here! Small bakery with limited seating area but the baked goods are definitely aesthetically pleasing to the eyes! I came here mainly for a cake but couldn't help buy a box of adorable character macarons! They have a wide variety of various animated popular characters from Disney to Pixar to even Japanese characters like Totoro! These adorable treats not only bring a big smile, but also taste good. Personally they were slightly more on the crunchy side compared to many macarons I've tried but overall was a good experience and will go back for more! I also bought the Hk milk tea cake which was a little plain but I do intend to try the other favours in the near future! read more

I ordered the peach garden cake for my mom's birthday and it was absolutely delicious! The cake tasted very fresh and light and had the perfect crunchy layer of almond as its base. It was nicely decorated with gold foil, peach macaron, and peach marzipan. Also appreciated that they offered to include a candle when I went to pick up the cake. :) read more

Located in Kensington Market & Scarborough Oh how cute are these?! We purchased the box of 9 - $30 (pricy). We love gifting DaanGo's macaron to friends and family. Their flavours are asian inspired, cute characters, tasty and packaging is on point!! 8/10 read more

I love this place's macaroons!! Everything is just so visually pleasing. This cute little place is located just down on Midland. I originally bought a box of macaroons for my mom, but her friend came over and said they looked so adorable. My mom ended up gifting it to her. Obviously I got upset cause I was really looking forward to eating them and there's been so much hype over it! My mom ended up taking me to go back and get more so sort of a win win? I really want to buy or order a cake from them though! My only problem with this place is that there is a bit too much sugar in some of the flavours. Otherwise, I'll be coming back here to get more! read more
Mother's Day was insane at the store and it's quite confusing as people don't know if they should line up or not outside. So takeout you go in and line up to the left. For orders you line up outside or go in to the right. They have a book of orders for the day but would be good to have your order number handy because it gets hectic!!! Cakes are always pretty and consistent though. Macarons are one of the best and too pretty to eat. read more
Very beautiful collection of cakes and macarons at this place. Recently ordered a 6 inch Chinese New Year cake, and true to picture, the cake was absolutely beautiful. We were afraid the cake was too small for a group of 7, however it turned out ok as the mousse is quite rich and heavy. We definitely enjoyed the cake, however I found that the Earl Grey mousse flavor wasn't strong enough, and was hoping for a bit more sponge cake within. The tea flavoring on the macaron topping however was really strong and worked really well. I definitely would go back for one of their other stunning creation. And for Master Chef fans, you may catch a glimpse of Christopher working away just right behind the service counter. read more

My family LOOOOVES this place! We order their cakes whenever we are celebrating together. My mom is very particular with sweets and she doesn't like anything with an extremely sugary or thick cake base. But Daango is her favourite. I've never seen her constantly wanting to go back to a place for sweets until she tried their cakes here. She says that their graham crust is *chefs kiss*. The staff are incredibly nice and informative whenever you have questions. The store is always busy and run out of cakes quickly if you haven't ordered ahead of time. For those who want a cake from them for celebratory purposes, I recommend calling/ordering the cake you want ahead of time (2-3 days before your event). Their best flavours would have to be Gold Thorn (durian -- I cannot stress how good this cake is), PanDaan (pandan), and 3:15 (HK milk tea). And for good measure, their Mr Cottontail is a good gift or afternoon tea cake to bring home on the side. I also recommend their macarons as well. It's a great gift for those who don't know what to get for someone. Their durian ice cream is also chefs kiss. Super creamy, not super sweet, very heavy durian flavor. If you pay cash, it's 10% discount!!! read more

You can reserve your cake online. I got the Gold Thorn, which is the durian cake. IT WAS DELICIOUS! It was super smooth and the durian taste was strong but not too strong. It's a beautiful cake and for only 35CAD?? WORTH. Wish I could find something like this in NYC. Can't wait to go back and try their other cakes. Also picked up some macarons from their other location in Kensington, they were delicious and cute! read more

Got 2 cakes to celebrate a birthday recently and absolutely loved them! The peach garden was super refreshing and not too overly sweet. The tiramisu had such a strong coffee flavour and was one of the best one I've had! Would definitely come back to try the cute macarons. read more
January 26, 2019 - This shop is located close to Midland and Finch area. I never knew it existed until my cousin told me about it. The store doesn't have a lot of seating maybe enough for 3-4 ppl. We bought two different slices of cake and six different macaroons. 1. Tiramisu Cake 2. Cheesecake Formage 3. Macaroons flavours: Donald Tiramisu, Daisy Earl Grey, Tigger Salted Caramel, Pooh Mango, Brown Bear HK Milk Tea, Strange Bunny Matcha (I added an image of the flavour pamphlet) So, I love the Tiramisu cake!! Damn it was good. The Cheesecake Formage cake was okay, it had lemon in it and I wasn't feeling it too much. My favourite macaroons were: HK Milk Tea, Tiramisu, Earl Grey, and Matcha My cousin loved the salted caramel flavour as well as the HK Milk Tea, Earl Grey and mango. The mango flavour tasted just like the mango ice cream they serve at Chako, I liked it also. But preferred the other flavours more. read more

They really know how to capture a flavour. It's one of the most accurate in terms of ice cream flavours I've had. So far we've had the milk candy and the ovaltine ice cream and it blew our minds. I also had their mango cheesecake, matcha crepe and pandaan cake. read more

I've been to Daango multiple times and everytime has been a great experience. The peach cake hands down one of my favorite cakes ever! It's not too sweet and it has the perfect balance between all the flavours. The crust is the best part, even after leaving it in the fridge for several days the crust is still crunchy. Sometimes cakes with fruits can taste fake, but I found the fruit to have a very fresh taste. The cute decor at the top of the cake is also very delicious. Service wise, I've had nothing but great experiences. I put in the order at 9pm and was able to pick up the cake the next day when they opened. The staff are also very friendly! The cakes are a tad bit pricier compared to other cakes I've had, but it's definitely worth it for the quality. Overall, I'd rate Daango a 5/5. read more

I can't really eat things that are sweet and all the desserts i have tried from here have been sweeter than what i would prefer. I wish they would tone done a bit on the sugar in them. But i have to give them a 5/5 for their presentation! they spend a lot of time on the cute cartoon faces and decoration. The cakes are so pretty i got the pink diamond one you can break open and it has a lot of little pearl colored chocolate on the inside. The cake wasn't that sweet which was perfect for me. Hope they open up a cafe soon i would be there all the time! read more
Tiny but cute cafe. Nice for breakfast and brunch. Menu is simple and concise. We had the chicken and waffles, eggs Benedict with 72 hour satay beef brisket, panko pancakes, teen yeung tea, and milk tea. The bubble waffle is a nice concept. It's not as thick, dense, and filling as you're used to. The chicken is not dry, and the picked Apple is very interesting in as good way. The eggs Benedict was also very good. The beef brisket was tender and flavorful. We had it with the BLB. The sweetness from the BLB is a nice suprise but maybe takes away from the brisket a bit. Would try it again with a different protein combination. The potatoes are very flavorful as it is topped with salted egg yolk. The panko pancakes is a nice mixture of sweet and tangy. Both drinks were delicious. The milk tea was rich and creamy with no sweetener. And it was VERY creamy. Smooth and silky. read more
Cute little shop off a plaza along Midland/McNicoll. You walk in and feel like you are in a cake lab - with all the staff carefully perfecting their creations in plain view. Lots of flavors of macarons to choose from such as Vietnamese Coffee and Ovaltine. The macarons are decorated with the cutest cartoon character designs, ranging from Disney to Totoro. My friend and I ordered two cake slices, the 3:15 (Ovaltine) and Mont Blanc (chestnut). Both were beautifully designed and rich in flavor - not heavily sweet. I could taste the Ovaltine and chestnut flavor profiles really coming through in the absence of a strong sugary mask. I would definitely come back to order a full on cake for a special occasion next time! Notes: There are about 5 seats for dine in, this is mostly a takeout spot. Only beverage options are brewed coffee and milk tea. read more

3.5 Star Baker Siu aka Christopher from MasterChef Canada Season 2 contestants. He had started his own home bakery business DaanGo with custom made Asian inspired cakes and macarons. (DaanGo means Cake in Chinese) I had been wanting to try some of those macarons for the longest time since I saw them on Instagram and what better was to order some for Macaron Day 2016. Picking which flavours might not be easy but the good thing is I can just have one of each!! And of course some special Easter Holiday ones that is bunny and Easter Egg theme. The shell of the macarons is like an eggshell so delicate. I enjoyed the most of the flavour. I just find some of them might be a little too sweet and that overwhelmed the actual intended flavour. Macarons are priced between $2-$3 and Cakes are from $35. I already know what to order next time. Black Sesame and Almond Mt Blanc. All my flavour component and hopefully it would taste as good as it sound! For ordering you can contact Christopher directly via his email and his social media account. Really responsible and you would able to get a reply within a few hours the most. read more
The macarons are okay, I don't find them very tasteful and sometimes tastes a little stale though they are super cute. On another note the durian cake is so good! It smells, obviously because durian smells. But really enjoyed this cake. Often times durian flavored goods are mediocre and does not have a strong taste. However this cake was cute, and the flavor/durian paste was prominent and did not taste artificial at all. The bottom of the cake was a crunchy cookie/biscuit layer that was a little sweet but paired well with the cake. Definitely appreciated the crunch. Overall I would be back to try their other flavor cakes but not for the macarons. I give it a 6.5/10 read more

Good but not as soft or perfectly fresh as other patisseries in Toronto. This is a great option in Scarborough and Markham for those who don't go downtown much. Not a cafe and a bit small. (I've bar top with maybe 2-3 seats) and not a place to relax, get a drink and chill (incase your wondering and want a place to catch up with a friend. A box of 6 for $20 seems a little steep to me. Definitely cute and appreciate the art work but can't justify this as a regular spend unless it's for a birthday or special occasion. My favorite might have been the Vietnamese coffee macaron. Deduction on the rating is for the price, taste isn't great across the board. read more
So this place doesn't have a retail shop yet and I only got one thing to say to that: "Daan Go breaking my heart..." But really, it couldn't if it tried. The macarons here are so delicious and Chris' passion and creativity is so inspiring. Having been an avid follower of Baker Siu's Instagram, I've been dying to try his Asian-flavoured macarons for the longest time. I was finally able to do so when he set up shop at TO Food Fest. Flavours available were: HK Milk Tea: The cream in the middle was definitely reminiscent of the drink. It even had bits of tea leaves in it so authenticity is definitely there. The shell didn't have too much milk tea flavour, but the combination of everything was great. Matcha Milk Tea: Matcha is the new "in" thing. Matcha this, Matcha that. But having said that, there isn't a flavour I'd be more happy to see in macaron form. And Chris did it right. This was so flavourful and had that strong unique green tea flavour from the first bite. Definitely one of my favourites. Strawberry Yuzu: Wow, that citrus flavour in the cream! I don't know how he did it, but it exploded in my mouth. Definitely one of the more special macarons I've ever tried and something I wouldn't hesitate to order again. Ribena: While this was lovely, I wasn't blown away by it. It somewhat reminded me of Ribena (blackcurrant drink) but if I didn't know what it was, I would've never guessed. Still a good macaron though. Just a note, Chris uses some fantastic, genuine ingredients. The cream between the macaron is actually super creamy and buttery. This also meant that after keeping it in a cool, dark place for 2 days, there seemed to be some slight spoilage (cream tasted a bit sour). I still ate the whole thing because it was delicious and what doesn't kill you makes you stronger. I was fine, and I'm still alive now but maybe try to finish them quicker than I did. One day, with enough money and a good enough reason, I'll order one of his cakes. They're absolutely beautiful. (69/100) - 2016 read more
