Strawberry Shortcake :)

Are you a strawberry fan? Wanting something fruity and light? This is the right choice for you!

Today’s dessert review is on strawberry shortcake which you won’t be able to make it yourself unless you have the patience to do so. However, if you want it fast and served beautifully to you, all you have to do is to drop by at the nearest ‘‘The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf cafe’’ for a slice of strawberry shortcake. This slice of strawberry shortcake maybe be selling at a higher price from what you expect but you’ll ask for more once you’ve taste it! It is RM 10.90 per slice excluding tax.

Well since it’s from a cafe that sells great coffee drinks, what else is there to hold against from this wonderful slice of shortcake? This shortcake is top with half cut fresh red juicy strawberries, and vanilla shortcake as the base. Since, it is a shortcake; the cake is lighter than a normal sponge cake and smoother as it melts in your mouth so easily! This shortcake is presented like a layered cake where every layer is filled with slices of strawberries, cream and shortcake. Despite the fact that it may sound calorific, but isn’t desserts are the best friend for everyone, also a stress-reliever? You can count on me for this as it is definitely not a fattening dessert! Dig in and enjoy!

 

 

Doesn’t it look like the one you’ve watch on television? Maybe it is not exactly you drooled on, but it somehow has the similarities I’m sure. Well, as mention beforehand that it is shortcake so it is lighter than a sponge cake. Hence, you don’t have to worry about the sweetness of this cake as the sweetness comes from the naturals of the juicy sweet strawberries; imported all the way from Australia. The layered cream from this shortcake is not deadly sweet either. It is fresh whipped cream where it perfectly blends in well as a whole for this strawberry shortcake.

 

This strawberry shortcake could really go well with a cup of hot cappuccino or maybe a soothing cup of hot tea. Nevertheless, this is all up to your personal preference to choose which flavour coffee or tea you want. Here’s just one tip don’t go for a fruity flavoured tea as you still want the taste of the juicy strawberries to linger in your taste buds!
