Special Strawberry Whole Cake (18cm for $55)

Strawberries cakes are the most underrated cakes. Strawberries would easily ‘sweat’ and spoil cream cakes. But Japanese always have a way to find creative solutions.

This cake is one of our favourite and it’s so light, fluffy, fragrant, and everything you want to taste in a refreshing strawberry cake. The sponge is so moist and soft that it melts in your mouth. The whipped cream has a fresh and milky flavor, and the amount of strawberries, both inside and outside is insanely generous!

If you want to try out their Chocolate based Strawberry Cake, a half-half option is available as well!

Endless Party Ice Cream Cake (~18cm for $48.20)

Do you enjoy Chateraise’s Vanilla and Chocolate Chip ice cream? If yes, you must try this two-layered ice cream cake, wrapped with a handcrafted biscuit crust, holding all the ice cream goodness in place.

Hands down one of the best ice cream cake we ever tasted! Downside is that the ice cream cakes melts really fast, so do expect the crust would be a little soggy within a short period of time.

But still, ice cream beats everything else and those decoration are absolutely adorable!

Double Fantasy Cream Puffs ($1.90 each)

What is good at Chateraise apart from whole cakes? Definitely the Double Fantasy Cream Puffs. It comes in three flavours, Original, Sweet & Milk Chocolate and Matcha Latte.

We tried the Chocolate and Matcha one, and we absolutely love it! Light and dense, this puff is a must try.
