Pastry: Well baked, very flaky but slightly thick 8/10
Presentation: Excellent proportions, neatly cut and smoothly iced 8.5/10
Value for money: $3.80- medium portion size, fresh but very average 6/10
Overall score: 6.6/10
The slice had so,s good features aesthetically. It had good proportions and colour, with a deep yellow custard and dark brown, well baked pastry layers visible underneath the thickish top layer of glossy white icing.
Upon a few mouthfuls it was evident that the taste was not as good as the looks. The icing was too heavy and sweet, the custard lacked sweetness ironically and vanilla didn’t seem part of the ingredients. The pastry was the best component to the slice overall, with the layers well baked and flaky. At only $3.80 this is a decent slice for people who are happy to smash one without really over analysing it. However, in my line of blogging this is not the perfect slice, but does provide some value for money at least.
