I had the chocolate lava cake. From the first impression, sourced from bakerzin. Took A first bite, choc amour from bakerzin was my verdict. It has bitter sweet chocolate mousse, thin layer of choc sponge, followed by the mousse again. I think it is better than the one at bakerzin too.

It's been a while since I tried pastries/ desserts not from Coffee Club lol. I must say I am lucky it was a good alternative, at Canele Paragon outlet. I can't remember what pot of decaffeinated tea did I order, but it was soothing and blended well with my Strawberry Shortcake, & I paid about $15 for these. It was a good afternoon tea, except that the Paragon outlet on a Saturday afternoon was so crowded & cramped. So ambience wise I guess I'll have to deduct points...Next time if you want so

Next time if you want some refreshing afternoon tea at Canele, perhaps better try it on a weekday!

Loev the macarons here. They are not as big as Darcis' or as good, but they are pretty tasty! Especially the salted caramel. I always get the salted caramel macarons when I'm at Canele.The ambience is interesting. You can sit in dark coloured plush velvet chairs with high backs and people watch.

Loev the macarons here. They are not as big as Darcis' or as good, but they are pretty tasty! Especially the salted caramel. I always get the salted caramel macarons when I'm at Canele.

The ambience is interesting. You can sit in dark coloured plush velvet chairs with high backs and people watch. Nice quiet place to hang out and chat.

The service is VERY SLOW!! We ordered iced lemon tea and it took so long, we ordered another one, so 2 ice lemon teas came out after 20 minutes? Surely they didn't have to make it from scratch? And it wasn't even busy at that time, with more than half the place empty! My water was topped up after I almost died of thirst. but at least it was topped up. The service is very polite but VERY SLOW. And there's a guy there that is all huff and puff and rather annoying - he doesn't seem to know what he's doing yet he acts as if he is in charge! Spoils the mood.

The crab salad was alright. The crab tasted rather fishy and the pieces were miserly and it seemed it came out of a can. Overall, there was too much dressing, so that it made my face drip with oil just from just eating it!

I think it's best to stick with the desserts. It's a colourful shop, very much like Bakerzin upstairs,with their brightly coloured desserts and boxes on display. The desserts here are better than Bakerzin's upstairs, but the mains are better at Bakerzin's.

so first time trying baked fruit tart, surprisingly very very nice. really love it. the top layer comes sweet with a touch of berry sour taste. refreshingly nice. not 'ge-lat' at all. the tart base was good and nicely made baked and made, presented on dessert plate. which makes you happy. rose tea was fragrance too. nice light touch of flower taste and sweet smelling. while my friend had the caraibe dark chocolate hazenut slice at $8+ (cannot remember the exact) but the chocolate was really thick and rich, quality chocolate with a touch of hazenut mix. lovely.

To be frank, I was disappointed. Besides the sweetness, all I can taste is still sweetness. The sweetness is far too overwhelming such that I cannot taste the red bean flavour, except for the two red beans in the middle of the cream.

I ordered the Bolognaise & poached egg doria – Traditional Baked rice in casserole recommended by my friend. It is a butter and herb infused rice with lots of cheese! I like how it end up like glutinous rice, with all the cheese mixed up with the grain. very unique and flavourful. Worth a try.

Canelé Pâtisserie Chocolaterie is better known as a dessert haunt. But, like any other brunch lover, I was excited to discover out that its Paragon outlet serves breakfast too. There were other tempting options like Eggs Florentine and French Toast, but I expectedly headed straight for the Blueberry Pancakes ($7.50++).

There were other tempting options like Eggs Florentine and French Toast, but I expectedly headed straight for the Blueberry Pancakes ($7.50++).

To my dismay, Canelé's pancakes were not of the fluffy American variety I was expecting. While I still like the latter version better, the thin and crêpe-like European-style pancakes served were faultlessly light and soft. Even better when studded with sweet blueberries and accompanied by a sprinkling of powdered sugar, a generous drizzle of maple syrup and clouds of light crème chantilly!

On another ocassion, I had L'amour ($8++), an ice cream creation which I will gladly order it over and over again. The combination of fragrant, lusioucs rose petal ice cream with crunchy rose meringue and lychee pieces is bound to blow away any fan of Ispahan.

The service here was slow though- the bill took a long time to arrive during both visits.

For my birthday, my cousin bought me a little slice of heaven from Canele! With the cute box and design, they took it out and lighted the candle.The cake? It was covered with chocolate powder all over, with the inside gelatin and rhum/grape if i'm not wrong giving the warm alcohol feeling, and cherry on top! It was a total feat, and I'm sure it's made with total patisserie dedication. It has a layer of chocolate mousse as well; a perfect round chocolate tart cake. Although it is nice and delicio

Although it is nice and delicious, this is not the best of the best dessert - something more better I've tried!

I am very sure that most of the Food bloggers/ Dessert Lovers would have heard or know Canele inside out. After our lunch at The Ship Restaurant , we craved for desserts and the first thing that comes to my mind is , Canele.

We went to the nearest Shaw Centre outlet to get our dessert fix.


We are not here for the mains (just had it) and I was deciding to get the savoury (looks good too) or the Sweet crepes . Finally, we set our mind on the Foret Noire cos I ‘m a liquer sucker!

It was the first time Mum had Macarons thus I specially picked the Hazelnut flavour for her ( cos she loves nuts) . She feels that the Macaron is just too sweet for her and she could only detect sweetness rather than the flavour of hazelnuts.

My caramel orange marcaron is under the special edition. Although I knew that Macarons are made from Almond flour and being allergic to it, I decided to go against it and just try one ( just one won’t die) . The macaron shell is very crispy but the interior is soft. I feel that it was too sweet (the caramel) but I like the crispy macaron shell.

Foret Noire ( Black Forest ) $13.50++


”Dark cherry compote, chocolate ice cream and kirsch chantilly cream’.
The whole presentation of the crepe loooks lovely! As described, the crepe is thin and topped with a scoop of dark chocolate ice-cream with hint of kirsh, chocolate shards , chantilly cream and sweet cherries.

The crepe is very thin and it paired well with the chantilly cream and dark chocolate ice-cream. Both Mum & I enjoyed the dark chocolate ice-cream, it is less sweet & infused with minimal kirsh. The cherry is sweet but I would prefer to be soaked in Kirsh.

The crepes here are meant more for sharing (Huge serving ). The outlet here is busy and thus it was a little difficult to get the attention of the servers. However, I would certainly return again for my dessert fix!
