Recently, colleague did a group buy for Mr Baguette’s mini baguette buns with over 12 types of lava filling. I tagged along and ordered two each of Adzuki Lava, Tiramisu Lava and Cheese Lava which cost S$12.50 + 5% service charge.
Received the snacks still warm to touch and immediately sliced the Adzuki Lava into halves to share it with my mum. As you can see, the matcha lava is still molten enough to flow out which make eating it kind of messy. One way to lessen the mess is to not share and just devoured the whole bun yourself. :D And that created another issue, the lava is just too rich and creamy that consuming one is enough to cause the jelak (cloying) effect stopping you from reaching out for the next piece. :(
Toasted the other two pieces over the weekend for about 10 minutes, just enough to warm up the exterior but not cause the lava to be viscous. The Tiramisu Lava has a light coffee and cocoa flavours with a section of coffee soaked lady finger buried in the cream/cheese filling. The snack seems to lack the familiar profile of the classic coffee-flavoured Italian dessert. Could it be that I can’t taste the mascarpone cheese as the cream seems to overpowered my tastebuds or the use of Marsala wine if at all.
TheCheese Lava considering that it is made from four types of cheese, lack the cheese flavours and is unnecessarily sweet. It would be nice to have that stringy cheese effect or cubes of cheese mixed in with the cream/cheese filling for another layer of texture. Both my colleague and I are disappointed with the way this item was crafted.
As echoed by some of my colleagues whom had eaten the baguette buns, it is just too Overly Cloying Creamy as the chef concentrated on presenting the flowing lava effect but neglected about the overall taste and texture. Beside, as acknowledged by some of us, flowing filling makes eating it a messy process.
My favorite Mediterranean dinner! Roasted veggies with a whole bowl of chickpeas, tomato salad, an entire baguette (and yes I did eat like half that loaf). Eggplant, zucchini, yellow squash, onion, red and green bell peppers - all so tasty! And people say that vegans can’t grill

So…stefsanjati asked her followers in a video a couple of weeks ago to draw her as a Corgi. But I drew her as a loaf of bread because that’s basically the same thing???? I hope you like it, Stef! (ﾉ◕ヮ◕)ﾉ*:・ﾟ✧
