Has anyone try cakeavenuebefore? Saw their wedsite last night. The design of the cakes look yummy. Need some feedback.

Yes, ordered from them for my DD’s 1st month and 1st and 4th birthday as well as my DS’s 1st month, but have not been back since then (and that’s already 3 yrs) so not sure whether my feedback still valid, haha! Personally, the cake is really nothing to shout about in terms of taste but I did love the design. But then again, there are many out there with designs that are comparable to theirs so I personally won’t purposely go all the way there (I no longer live around that area).

Thanks, jce...


Any good recommendation for birthday cakes? I'm still cracking my head. :lol:

[jce]

Actually I’m cracking mine too! Haha! Reason being, my DD wants to have a "horse/pony cake". I thought of simply bringing a horse picture to Sweet Secret and get it scanned, but that’s plain boring and secondly, don’t like Sweet Secret cakes. Have been trying to convince her to get a cake for taste and not for design and more specifically a horse/pony design, but to no avail (not surprising I guess since she’s only 7). If it’s a good cake you’re going for (and with a pretty design) then I’d say Patisserie Glace and The Patissier does really good ones. Blue Magnolia has good simple choc/vanilla sponge (their carrot cake is arguably one of the best in S’pore) but limited designs. The other thing about customising a design is that the cake has to be big, as in 2kg, that sort. DD’s birthday celebration is going to be small scale. I may try Island Creamery for ice cream cake. Can bring in own design and they’ll see whether it’s do-able. Charge extra of course.

I’ve ordered from her on 3 occasions, a chocolate banana for my DS2’s 1st birthday, nice design n delicious. My guests were all singing praise about it, they love it.

Mango mousse cake for my father, very nicely decorated, thou tasted abit sour, but overall okay, the mango goes well with the soft sponge cake.
