Absolutely enjoying this Banana CHOCOLATE Delight ($7) from The Coffee Bean & Tea Leaf! β€β€β€
.
I am usually afraid of cakes with thick mousse layers as I am afraid of the heavy oily feeling I get from the whipped heavy cream.π€ However, the luscious creamy texture of the chocolate mousse layer simply won me over! π The rich chocolatey taste transported me to a blissful land of chocolate, making this an awfully indulgent treat. π«π«π« Liked that it was not overly sweet, while the banana slices embedded in the mousse render that irresistible natural sweetness that takes your focus away momentarily. π

The chocolate sponge layer was equally well-done. Being not overly crumbly, sufficient soft & moist, it complements the smooth mousse layer really well. π A top layer of dark chocolate ganache adds a classy finishing touch, adding a nice gloss to this slice. πππ The intense cocoa flavours also lingers in your mouth for a long time, which I particularly enjoyed. ππ»

Certainly a decadent slice! π€€ Now I know why Coffee Bean cakes rank top in my mumβs to-go place for cakes - they have never disappointed us & never fail to impress. π―

Happy Thursday friends! π
