Overall score: 7.4/10
The French vanilla slice lost some of its sugar in transit but still remained in tact. It’s proportions were interesting, noticeably higher than a lot of common slices of the same footprint. With such vast quantities of custard I was hoping for a good batch, and I wasn’t disappointed. It’s texture like airy whipped cream, it’s flavour like vanilla ice cream - it didn’t hang around long in between the surrounding layers of pastry. I had to eat this thing fast as it was squirting out all sides and compressing fast. The pastry itself was fresh and very serviceable. It could have been baked longer for a darker appearance and some more crunch, but nonetheless it was a decent component.
Overall a recommendable little bakery if you find yourself in the area.
