Caramel Frappuccino @ Starbucks Coffee

Got bored with the green tea frappuccino and hojicha, so this time I got the Caramel Frappuccino.

I assumed there was no coffee in it, but it tasted bitter.
After asking the barrister it turns out that you need to tell them beforehand.

But overall, the drink was quite nice and not too sweet and the caramel was nice and strong.

Differing Frappuccinos at different branches

I was expecting slushy frappuccino but it was not and I liked it.

The cream on top at this branch was stiffer and airy and not the smooth ones at the other branches.
But I liked the cream like this because it tasted like clotted cream.

The Pioneer branch is interesting because the tables are scattered around the balcony.

Egg white delight ciabatta @ Starbucks

After trying the Hojicha and Green tea with Red bean frappuccino, I noticed the egg white delight ciabatta which I decided to try this time.
I also got the original green tea frappuccino as well to compare it to the Green tea frap with red beans.

Egg white delight ciabatta
The ciabatta was wrapped nicely just like a hamburger.
The fillings in the ciabatta was really nice, it had egg white, cheese and ham. It was simple but delicious.
The ciabatta was crispy and soft in the centre.
I thought the plain egg white was the best because the egg yolk is usually cooked and starchy in ciabattas or other sandwiches. Here it is just plain egg white, which is healthy for people who cannot consume too much cholesterol.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

Green tea frappuccino
The green tea frappuccino in my opinion tastes better than the one with red beans because I do not like red beans, and this one is much creamier with extra whipped cream on top.
I requested for Vanilla free because the green tea powder itself is sweet.

Spicy Herbs Scone & Muesli Lemon Aloe Jelly Yogurt Cup @ STARBUCKs

After trying the new drinks I saw some other snacks I wanted to get. So I went to Starbucks again to get the Petites Cup and the Muesli with Lemon Aloe Jelly Yogurt Cup.

The Petites Cup is a cup of bitesize snacks, $22 for five pieces. There are five flavours which can be mixed and matched.

 

The five flavours are (NEW) Spicy Herbs Scone, (NEW) Almond Finger, Double Chocolate Cookie, Chocolate Chips Cookie and Cheese Puff.

On my first visit at the WanChai branch I asked for three pieces of the new spicy herb scone and two pieces of the Cheese Puff, however they gave the Almond Finger instead .
So I went to the Sai Kung branch and just got the cheese puffs and the Lemon Aloe Jelly Yogurt Cup.

Petits Cup

 

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Spicy Herbs Scone

 

It does not look spicy but the taste was really strong, there is an aftertaste as well.
Bascially I could taste heavy grounded black pepper and pesto.
The scone itself was really dry and hard.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Almond Finger

 

I didnt intend to try this because they gave me this instead of the cheese puffs I ordered.
Initially I thought it was weird there was almond on top but after I checked online it appears they've given me the almond finger.
The Almond finger was really sweet and too buttery for my liking. It was quite greasy as well.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Cheese puffs

 

 

These are savory cheese flavoured profiteroles but I found them tasteless. The cheese could not be tasted at all.
It was just buttery. However inside the puff you can see some slight cheese.

Muesli with Lemon Aloe Jelly Yogurt Cup
Tried mixing the elements together which tasted nice and also tried the elements individually.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++

 

Muesli
This is the ordinary breakfast muesli with raisins, oats and cornflakes which was quite sweet on its own because of the raisins.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Yogurt
After trying the muesli I tried the yogurt which was natural yogurt and it was quite sweet because the muesli was sweet so the yogurt is normally meant to taste sour after you've had sweet things but it wasnt, so the yogurt was obviously quite sweet.
However it was quite refreshing because there was pieces of aloe in it.
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Lemon Jelly

 

 

This was really refreshing and I wish there was slightly more jelly in the cup.
