The Icing Room

First time trying icing room's cakes! We had a chocolate cake which was really good! The cake sponge was soft and fluffy and the cream was fresh and smooth. The cake contained pieces of canned cherries which provided contrast in flavour. In addition, the strawberries on top, chocolate curls, and macaron shells on the sides added to the overall flavour of the cake and made it really nice to eat! The chocolate glaze on top was also really rich and yummy!

I am attending a makeup workshop by ZA in Orchard Road. During the break time, we are each served a chocolate chip muffin from this shop. Lots and lots of chocolate chips on top the muffin. The muffin tastes soft and moist. But I would prefer a more crispy top for texture. But it has done its job well, to ease my need for dinner. My stomach will be not making me thinking of food.

Very innovative concept offered here!! You can get a design it yourself cake for an affordable price and decorate it however you like! Came here with friends to decorate a cake for a birthday party and we all thoroughly enjoyed ourselves playing with the different icings provided and decorating the cake. You can also purchase more elaborate decorations at a separate charge

I went here the first time when my friends suggest me to surprise one of my friend birthday from the cake here. We can buy the cake in different sizes then decorate it depend on what ever you like. The colourful whipped cream will be given and you can even buy more design if you like. It's quite popular here. And it's really meaningful if you want to make something special and creative to give other.

As it was my friend's birthday, my friend and i decided to make a DIY cake here at the Icing Room! When you buy the cake, they will give you a freshly creamed plain cake and what you are supposed to do is to decorate the cake by yourself! Really love the flexibility of self customising a cake and just letting your creativity flow! though the cake was a little disfigured by the time we presented it to my friend, I guess it is the thought that counts right! And the cake was pretty good as well!

Bought this to celebrate my friend's birthday. To all chocolate lover, this is definitely a must try cake. Chocolate chiffon cake coated with layers of chocolate mousse, with a few chocolate macaroons beside it and topped with strawberries and chocolates, DELICIOUS and awesome feeling. Only thing is that the macaroons are too sweet ( macaroons are always that sweet though), we act left it aside after having 1 or 2 of it. But we did finish the cake in seconds, because it is just that yummy. The strawberries can be a little bit sour too, but this cake is definitely worth the price.

Bought this cake for my friend's 20th birthday. It is called "Fruity Paradise". As you can see from the name of the cake, the cake was really full of fruits like stawberries, mangoes, kiwis on top of the cake. Besides that, the cake was surrounded by pieces of white chocolate and they actually tied a small little ribbon on the chocolate which made the cake looked really thoughtful and pretty. This pretty-looking cake taste relatively sweet to me but overall it is still okay because you will get to eat different fruits with the cake. Those cake at there were all very dreamy and princess which are very suitable for girls. Besides that, they sell the cake at reasonable price.

The Icing Room, a dessert concept by Bread talk made its name famous with its own DIY cakes. Recently, they launch several new items and I trotted down to try some of them.

From the Dessert Shooters, go for the orange lemon if you like something sweet.

Speaking of macaroons, The Icing Room serves a large variety of flavors, and when compared with the traditional French macaroon, the version served here is not as sweet. But we didn’t order them this time round.

With desserts, one should have some tea to wash it down; and the Icing Room offers a large variety such as the English breakfast, Chamomile and Darjeeling. So there you have it, lots of sweets and tea - ideal for the young tai tais in the making.

Bought a voucher from Groupon on Icing Room where customers get to decorate their own designs on the cake. I went on saturday with a friend and she did her own and I did mine. We were given a choice whether we want a vanilla fruit cream cake or a black forest and I settled for the latter. It was fun but just that the piping cream and jam provided were not really enough and have to pay if ask for extras. Anyway I felt uneasy at first due to my age and later I realized it doesn't matter how old you are, when the things got started, it did bring out that child in me and I got excited and giggled at some point.
I brought the cake to a friend's house the next day and shared it and we all enjoyed it as the cake was soft and moist and not too sweet which we thought the fresh cream would. Really enjoyable.

I was planning to buy a cake to celebrate my mum’s birthday. I decided to get it from icing room as I always walk pass and see people designing and personalising their cake. I ordered their medium size one. It came in black forest (chocolate) or vanilla. I opted for the black forest one. They give me 3 icing frosting to decorate my cake. There was also some icing sugar too. It was quite exciting to design and personalise the cake for my mum’s birthday.

I like the concept of icing room be it their interior or their nature of work! it has been design as a princess-like interior with white and pink as their mean colour. The cakes can be DIY or pre-make. hence, you can DIY your own the design of the cake on your preference. for those who want unique cake and yet don't have the ability to bake one, just like me, are able to do it now.

The Icing Room! Brought my little niece to this awesome place to express her creativity and imagination through decorating a delicious cake. The colouring icing and small icing flowers and patterns are provided. The cake taste delicious too! thick chocolate within with vanilla cream, taste very good considering the affordable price we have to pay to get the cake and also decorate. Awesomeness! I also like The Icing Room’s macarons! Especially their green tea flavoured ones. Very mildly flavoured with green tea but it is so soft you just cant resist it.

Icing room.. i can say it's a wonderful place to get your friend/ family a present for any occasions. Be it Mother's day, father's day, birthdays, annivasary so on and so on. It's just the perfect gift because a sweet treat is never nasty.

On top of that, if you don't like to get the ready made cakes, you can choose to get the self-made fruity cakes. There're 3 sizes to choose from and prices are reasonable.

I got the medium sized one at around 20 like that. And you can decorate it yourself with the coloured creams and decorative candies. While having fun, you also get to make the present for your friends/ family.

Every time I passed by The Icing Room, I would stop by and take a look. There would always be people standing around decorating the cakes. I find that this is a very unique shop. Not only do they sell cakes, puffs, cookies etc., they also provide the facility for customers to decorate their own cake. I have always wanted to try the DIY.

Then came an opportunity when I bought these discount coupons from Groupon for a Jr. Chef Workshop for Kids at The Icing Room. I paid half the original price of $36 per workshop.
The workshop was in the morning, at Somerset 313 branch and there was only one other kid beside my two. I liked the set-up of this particular branch, so pink and sweet. There was a sitting area where you could sit and enjoy a dish or two from their menu. Today, they used this space for the workshop.

The theme for that day was to decorate the cake into a bumble bee with cream and chocolate. The instructor was very patient with the children. I'm not trying to praise my own but from the final products I could say that my kids were very patient too. It really took a lot of time and patience to make the cream 'balls' so small and closely packed together. They really enjoyed themselves.That very night, we 'sacrified' one of the bees to our tummy. We cut one of the cakes and ate it. The taste of the sponge cake was not fantastic, but the fruit sandwiched between the layers of cake blended well with it and improved the overall taste.
