eating perth! part three- desserts and pastries (continued...)

hi! I'm back home in Malaysia now. Perth was AWESOME. i enjoyed everyday of my 4 and a half weeks there :D

I'm back with more foodie posts :) starting with the simpler ones first :P

I'm gonna write short reviews on four yummy places to get desserts/ cakes/ pastries/ drinks

GELARE (click for their website)
there are many outlets in Australia.

this is the outlet in Subiaco

waffles with chocolate and cookies&cream ice cream
the main attraction here is 50% off waffles every Tuesday :D
(ice cream does not apply though)

pralines&cream and macadamia nut ice cream. yum

the waffles come with cream and syrup. additional ice cream topping is an option.
its freshly made to order, nice golden and soft on the inside and crisp on the outside. very very good :D

SONNY'S CAFE
115 Rokeby Road, Subiaco


we came here on our last day for afternoon tea. just because it looked nice, the selection of cakes n pastries :)

seeing double :D
enjoying our cuppa and cakes :D

deco is modern, chic and black

apricot meringue
cappuccino

irish cream cake

we had a tough time choosing two cakes. they had chocolate fudge, tiramisu, mixed berry cheesecake and so many pastries as well.
first we had the irish cream cake. which looks so good!!! BUT there was no irish cream taste at all :( nevertheless, it was quite good. i think its a cheesecake. its filled with chocolate pieces and almond slices.
our second cake was the apricot meringue, simply cos we wanted to try something different :) its nice with two different textures, the base was a crumbly cake with pieces of apricot. the topping was light and fluffy meringue. yummy!!!
and we had a cup of cappuccino each as well :D
and the coffee queen was very happy. heheh


Chez Jean Claude Patisserie
333 Rokeby Road, Subiaco, WA 6008
p: 08 9381 7968

this is a little quaint bakery along the road where the bus i take to SCGH every morning. looks so tempting indeed!
I couldn't resist and on the last day of my posting in the hospital, i got down the stop nearby and popped into the shop to have a peek.

mixed fruit tart

its quite a small shop and it was PACKED with people, probably cos it was tea time. all their goodies looked so very good!!! from cakes, pastries, bread and cookies. In fact i got the idea of chocolate dipped gingy from this shop. teehee.

the mixed fruit tart had a crunchy buttery crust and nice creamy custard filling and topped up with a selection of berries- blueberry, strawberries and raspberries. yum. a wonderful combination of taste and texture
chocolate eclair

this is also very good. light pastry with cold creamy chocolate filling and more chocolate topping on top.

chocolate cake infused with alcohol .
this chocolate cake is wicked :D sponge cake layered with chocolate cream. simple but so delish~

the yummy trio :D

UTOPIA BUBBLE TEA

we actually had bubble tea in the city.cannot recall the exact location :( this shop has outlets all over i guess.
bright orange cup!

they have many many flavours, its so hard to choose one!!!

and the bubble!!! sago, chocolate sago, rainbow jelly, etc



i had eternal love milk tea :D its basically milk tea. LOL. with sago. nice combo. the sago was nice and chewy. very refreshing drink!!
ok, thats it for the dessert posts. i hope you have enjoyed it ^_^
