Multi grain bun with Okinawa salt @ Arome Bakery

I have not really tried their bakery products apart from the sweet cakes at Arome Bakery room, so decided to get a savory bun this time.

Multi grain bun with Okinawa salt

 

This bun had multi grains and Okinawa salt on the top of the bun so decided to try it.
It reminded me of wholegrain bread with the pieces of grains in it that gave it extra texture.
The salt was nice as it gave the grains and bread some flavour.

3.6 hokkaido milk egg white tart that rings bells

Stay calm, its not a fire alarm, its the bell that rings when the 3.6 hokkaido milk egg white tarts come out of the oven.

Arome Bakery Room has just launched the new 3.6 hokkaido milk egg white tart which is made from three simple ingredients, 3.6 hokkaido milk, egg white and cream.

★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
3.6 hokkaido milk egg white tart:

I really liked this, the sweetness was just right and the filling was extremely creamy and silky.
The egg white and hokkaido milk tasted really nice together.
The tart base was made of buttery shortcrust pastry which was really nice with the creaminess of the hokkaido milk and egg white.

Strawberry and pistachio mousse:
The base of the cake was soft and I really liked that because the strawberry was really light and the pistachio filling in the middle was extremely nutty and buttery reinforced by the strawberry sauce on top.

Sweet Purple potato mousse cake:
I don’t usually like purple potato as a dessert but just tried it anyway.
I was surprised I really liked it.
It had that starchy texture that I didn’t like however the sweet potato puree was really fine so the starchiness was silky.
Also the mousse inside was extremely silky and light, so the two were a good combination.
In the centre there was more purple potato filling but a little coarser and there were pieces of apple to refresh the palate as well.
Although it was not too sweet to start off, it got sweeter towards the end.
The base of this cake was interesting it was chewy and I liked it!
After one day of refrigeration it tastes even better because the purple potato puree is much thicker.

It has been good seeing Arome Bakery Room constantly improve, they did not have carrier bags before but now they do which saves the box and cakes getting wet in the heavy rain.
The carrier bags have been designed to fit their cake boxes too.
There are other new products too for sale and some Christmas cakes for the festive season.

Fruit tarts for the visiting fireman

Had someone visiting so decided to get some fruit tarts from North Point's Arome Bakery Room to share.

 

 

It it all about being healthy these days so chose these fruit tarts over cream cakes.
Although fruits tarts are sweet as well, the sugar can be burned off with exercise!

 

There were six flavours but the chestnut one was sold out, so got one each of the rest of the remaining flavours which were: blueberry, strawberry, mango, white peach and mixed fruit.

All these had custard filling beneath it.

For Westerners I suggest choosing the blueberries or the strawberry one and for Asian flavours mango and mixed fruit.

blueberry custard tart:
Out of the five this one and the strawberry one are the least sweet.
The strong berry sauce and the custard were nice together.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
strawberry custard tart:
This was my favourite because the tartness of the strawberries and the cream were wonderful.
Strawberries and cream always go good together.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
mango custard tart:
I did not try this as I do not like mango
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
white peach custard tart:
This was quite nice and surprisingly they used white peach because not places use white peach as an ingredient.
The white peach was lightly crisp and not too sweet.
★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★☆★
mixed fruit custard tart:
I did not try this because it reminded me of chinese fruit cakes.
