Plated Dessert @ Zest Pâtisserie, Cheras

Plated dessert is an IN thing nowadays. They are beautiful and fine desserts on the plate, adorned with multi-garnishing and elements which made them so instagrammable and too pretty to be eaten.

Zest Pâtisserie

That is located in Connaught Avenue, Cheras is one of the dessert places that serves plated dessert too. The young pastry chef, Yixiang utilises his skill and creativity to come out with all these dainty creation. He is pretty daring, incorporating elements that give a huge contrast result, yet amazing and surprising flavours that you wouldn’t brain of.

What’s more?! All the plated desserts are priced at Rm 18 which is very affordable and you wouldn’t get this price anywhere else.

Matcha Ensemble
Warm matcha cake, granola, berries, sesame tuille, brown sugar jelly, wasabi ice cream.
My favourite! The warm, soft-center matcha cake to go with the kickin’ wasabi ice cream! Contrasted with other elements that are soft, crunchy, sourish and sweet. How interesting!

Crème Brulee
Vanilla crème brulee, fruits, cherry gel, tuille, hazelnut crumble, summer berries sorbet. Creamy crème brulee that is rich with egg flavours; beautified with the ‘summer garden’ at the side. The summer berries is tangy, giving ones a refreshing aftertaste.

Caprice
Charcoal waffle, caramel popcorn, creamy corn, almond flakes, salted egg yolk sauce, salted egg yolk ice cream.
The signature dessert in the house with most patrons ordered! Double dose of the salted egg yolk from the sauce and ice cream to go with the black charcoal waffle and condiments like popcorn and corns. Any salted egg yolk lover here??? Their salted egg yolk sauce and ice cream are very ohmp!!! Try it and you will know what I meant.

Chocolate Foret
Chocolate cake, caramelized banana, chocolate caramel cremeux, matcha coconut power, hazelnut ice cream
Looks like a chocolate forest that dosed with lots of elements. Love that hazelnut ice cream which is very rich in flavour to go with the chocolate cake and caramelized banana. Also, very beautiful and looks mystery at the same time.

Pomme
Mille feuille, vanilla pastry cream, green apple compote, meringue, salted caramel, yoghurt ice cream.
Crispy crunchy mille feuille that is layered with fragrant vanilla pastry cream; embellished with the bits of sourish green apple compote, sweet and fragile meringue, savoury salted caramel and the chilling yoghurt ice cream compatible so well with all the elements. This is good for sharing though, as the mille feuille can be quite filling.

The ever gorgeous, colourful and shiny Mirror Glazed Entremet is their latest creation. You may customize your very own cake with the Zest Pâtisserie’s team with your very own story.
