It was a slightly risky manouvre eying up this vanilla slice from the doorway when they were already pre-packaged in their own takeaway containers. Regardless I took the gamble, spent my $3.50 and swiftly exited. It wasn’t until I opened the container and attempted a pickup that it became apparent that the icing was a slimy, almost butter icing consistency. This made for a very slidy and difficult grip. With one bite, I immediately sensed the failings of the rather gelatinous, bland milky custard mix. It chipped away with each bite and was a real let down. The pastry was ever so slightly better, but just on the verge of being soggy - also bland in its taste. The icing was woeful. A real slimey and pointless addition, offering nothing other than messy finger tips. Avoid if tempted.
