Pastry: Well baked and thin, though not crisp (not fresh) 6/10
Presentation: Enticing ooze of pinky white icing, very yellow custard 8/10
Value for money: $2.40 - Very cheap and reasonable but lacking 7/10
Overall score: 6.6/10
This is probably what most people assume all vanilla slices taste like; a sweet and almost set, non-descript, yellow custard filled sandwich of slightly stale pastry topped off with sweet, sticky, white icing. Whilst I appreciate that the pastry could have been better when freshly baked, the custard was very average and lacking creaminess, fluffiness, vanilla and egg. The real highlight was the sticky icing that left itself welded to my fingers post slice. Not all slices taste like this, or in fact need to taste like this. Thanks for the recommendation Oriana, keep them coming.
