Sinfully by Shangri-La

While walking around Greenbelt 5, we saw Sinfully by Shangri-La.

I liked Shangri-La's Chocolate Croissant that I immediately went inside to buy some. Unfortunately though, it was already sold-out. So, I just chose from what's available. I bought the following:

Crumble Brioche

It has a custard filling and was topped with a crumble that tasted like polvoron.
The custard was as sweet as condensed milk. While the brioche was not as buttery as I imagined nor wanted.

When I asked if it's baked or fried, I were told that it's baked, that I immediately bought one as I like Jipan's Baked Mochi Mochi Donut. Plus, it's big.
Compared to Jipan though, Sinfully's baked donut was more like a bread coated with a sweet white chocolate than a donut.

My husband didn't like this. I feel the same. It tasted cheap and not like something from a hotel bakeshop.

This was better than the Ensaymada. A good pastry paired with tea or coffee.

The Cake Club Ube Ensaymada

I was looking for something to bring home to my mother at Power Plant Mall, when I passed by The Cake Club on my way to Healthy Options.

Almost all of their small cakes/cake slices were sold out already, even their muffins, except one Banana Walnut. So I just bought that one Banana Walnut and two Ube Ensaymada.

I have already tried their Ube Ensaymada, I was just feeling nostalgic that day after reading the November issue of Yummy Magazine (their sweets issue). There was a mention of Diamond Hotel's Ube Ensaymada, that mention made me crave for it.

So it was good that I passed by The Cake Club and remembered it.

It was still good, with lots of cream, cheese and ube.
