Sophie has always been one of my favourite bakery shop to to grab some pastries and sandwiches. This time I have bought the Ciabatta Mozzarella & Pesto sandwich ($6.90) which the portion is huge and really look tempting. The sandwich buns are filled with different types of spicies fragrant and the bun is firm and moist.

My colleague introduced this bakery to my other colleague who then introduced the delectable breads from this shop. Sophie Bakery is modelled after a little European shop with dainty displays of tarts, slices of cakes, breads (focaccia and baguettes). Sometimes they also have bite sized samples of loaves of breads which you can eat to your heart's delight (provided you don't have a guilty conscience eating one too many). The shop's interior and exterior is all decked for Christmas.

The shop's interior and exterior is all decked for Christmas. Inside, there is a small train display running on the counter. Very charming.

Anyway i was talking about this White Chocolate Chip bun ($1.90). Its not expensive and yet its very filling. Do not belittle it by its exterior. The bread is very dense, filled with bits of white chocolate chips. Besides the crunchiness of the chocolate chips, the strong hint of white chocolate in the bun adds to the overall taste of the bread. Thumbs up for this bread!

I have not really tried their other items except the bread and their Cranberry Cookie. The cookie, like the bun, has a light but its-there Cranberry flavour. It crumbles the way a cookie crumbles too.

Sophie bakery is one of the many french bakeries that has came to our little island. I feel that it is also one of the cheaper french bakery compared to many others. I particularly like their fruit tarts which comes in a handful of flavours such as longan, peach and strawberry. Do note that ll of the fruit tarts have the same base, just different fruit toppings.

One this particular day, i chose the peach tart ($5). Half a neatly sliced peach was placed in top of their delicious tart base that features a light fragipane cream in a crispy, buttery tart shell. There was only a small dollop of custard cream to hold the peach on top of the tart base, making it a good choice for people who do not like creamy stuff.

I wasn’t disappointed with the tarts which were heavily packed with fillings!

My favorite has to be the lemon meringue tart which were refreshingly tarty sour. It is the perfect dessert to end off a heavy meal. I didn’t manage to get a taste of the chocolate tart, but reviews have told me that the dark chocolate ganache was satisfyingly good. The strawberry tart isn’t too bad, but it is definitely muted against the other two.

With prices lower and quality on par with Carpenter & Cook, I see myself grabbing more of these lovely tarts at Sophie Bakery in future. Located in various central locations, it is much more convenient to grab some home.

There are much more flavors of tarts available, especially in fruity flavors. The peach tart will probably be next on my hit list!

Raisin Roll/ Escargot ($2.90)
Croissant dough rolled with pastry cream and sultanas soaked in fresh orange juice. Very good with cafe or hot chocolate.

Overall the pastries tastes quite soft and buttery. And best of all not too sweet, just alright. Even little JJ managed to finish half of the Peach Danish on his own, not bad for a year old kid. Staffs are quite friendly and the place is quite empty, could be due to its a weekday night.

Crossiant ($2)
It's always tough trying to satisfy my taste buds with crossiants cos I'd either pick on it for being overly flaky, too hard, not fluffy enough or lacking the buttery aroma. I've tried the one at Tiong Bahru Bakery, claimed by some to be the best in town, but it just wasn't to my palate.

This simple looking pastry took me by surprise as I took a bite of it and was greeted by the soft folds on the inside and a slight crisp at the side of the crossiant. There was a light buttery aroma yet no signs of it being too oily. I liked how it was soft and fluffy inside and the buttery flavour lingered for a while inside your mouth. I know of friends who're fans of the flaky version of this pastry and this wouldn't be your type of crossiant if you're looking for that crunch or crispy flakes stuck to the sides of your mouth. A soft and simple version, I was satisfied with this plain old crossiant. Of course, I didn't have it fresh from the oven, so perhaps it could have been even better with slightly crispier crust for that perfect touch!

Chocolate Chip Bun ($1.50)
Hidden inside this glazed brown shell, is a patch of dalmatian-looking bread filled with soft chocolate that got us excited with the pretty sight of it. An ordinary bun whose status just got elevated with those lovely dots of chocolate, it's perfect for choco-lovers! It was a tad too sweet for my liking, but I liked the fact that it wasn't the cheapo kind of chocolate used. Fluffy bread on the inside, it complemented the dense-ness of the chocolate well, to bring out chocolate chips as the highlight of it.

Mini Baguette ($1.50)
Used to those with a crispy skin and soft fluffy insides that tend to leave crusts all over my mouth, I wasn't quite sold by this stiff-looking bread. Compared to the great rendition we've had from Maison Kayser, I would probably call this a down-to-earth version. It didn't have the crispy outsides, nor the airy fluffy insides, but instead it was quite a solid composition of fine bread, that was simple yet addictive. The kind to go well with your simple butter and jam, and best if you have it warm.

Cranberry Cookies
I shall share my official favourite place to have cookies but please leave some for me and not buy it all hor! If you love cookies the home-baked style (instead of the gritty type that Famous Amos has), you'd love this! With fine grains and a subtle flavour of butter cookies, it tasted just like what you'd get from those who bake at home. Finely mixed and crispy throughout, I loved how there was so much cranberries in the mix that you could taste it in every mouthful! A fan of hard cookies, buttered kinds and cranberries, this was the perfect one for me! A simple cookie that tastes of home, and with all my favourites in it, this would be top on my list from now on.

Not too sure if it was the timing or outlet though, my friend who went over to Novena Square's branch at night was pretty disappointed by the cookies, having lost the crispiness of it and tasted like 'lau hong' cookies. Nonetheless, I'll be back for more very soon and probably my staple every time I pass by Wisma!

I went in with skeptical taste buds, thinking that it would probably be another one of those over-hyped bakeries but came out with simple pastries that left me very satisfied. It won't be fireworks with every mouthful, just simple pleasures with good ingredients and value-for-money. Definitely a place that I'll return for more!

I was recommended by cousin this bakery shop. The shop design is very beautiful, the choice of bread is also quite a lot. I bought a Plain Croissant, which taste normal nothing special. Chocolate bun (buy 2 get 1 free : so i took 2 chocolate and 1 white chocolate ) and these buns and they are very good, covered evenly with chocolate chips. Longan Fruit tarts , longan doesn't taste fresh and the tarts below is a bit hard. Overall, total spent $12. Pricing is expensive.
