Bakerzin's Chocolate Amer. Looks simple - 2 layers of mousse with 2 layers of sponge.
The cake was soft, fluffy, and light. The moist dark cake layers were of similar textural density to the mousse and were an excellent match for it. However, because they blended so well together, the overall perceived texture lacked variation and was somewhat monotonous.
Nonetheless, the flavour of these layers were superb, highly enriched in chocolate of a special brand which I presume is Valrhona. Unlike many other cakes around, the chocolate was very clean tasting without undesirable side flavours.
Overall, the cake was good, robust in flavour, but will certainly do better with the introduction of some textural variation, such as those which have made Canele's Le Royale a pure success.
Shiokness Verdict: 7/10
This cake costs $6.95 after GST. Will you skip 2 lunches at school so that you can save enough money to buy Bakerzin's Etiole?
