Filling: Smooth, creamy custard 6.5/10 Pastry: Pale and lacking bite 4/10 Presentation: Average, overly thick white fondant icing 5/10 Value for money: $4.20 - Average portion size, easily forgettable 5.5/10 Overall score: 5.25/10 Romsey Hot Bread Bakery was my pit stop while driving to Edgar’s Mission. I took out a half decent looking vanilla slice, though dubiously pale looking pastry could have gone either way. When handled, I immediately felt the somewhat soft pastry, though I left my judgement for the bite and taste tests. The pastry was not awful, though it was a million miles from being buttery and flaky. It handled sufficiently to allow large bites of all layers, with a heavy icing being very overbearing on top. The custard was actually nice; milky, creamy and velvety smooth in texture, with a hint of vanilla essence. A decent enough effort, but not as good as others I’ve tasted in the Macedon Ranges.
