There is great joy in giving and receiving, especially during Christmas! I was really blessed to receive the SweetSpot Hamper from Marina Bay Sands. If you're wondering what would make the perfect romantic gift for someone you love dearly, this hamper will definitely wow your other half!

There is great joy in giving and receiving, especially during Christmas! I was really blessed to receive the SweetSpot Hamper from Marina Bay Sands. If you're wondering what would make the perfect romantic gift for someone you love dearly, this hamper will definitely wow your other half! Here's a word of caution though: the hamper felt like it weighed 3 kilograms or more and it's definitely not something you would enjoy carrying while shopping! Thankfully, it's so much more convenient if you are driving (or being driven)! Read till the end to find out about the ongoing promotions (valid till 1 January 2015).

Chocolate Pralines and Nuts

These designs are specially crafted for Marina Bay Sands, as you can tell from the iconic logo. Regrettably, the chocolates turned rather hard after being placed in the refrigerator. On hindsight, I believe these chocolates were made to withstand melting even in Singapore's hot and humid conditions, so there is no need to keep them in the fridge! Be delighted by an assortment of dark chocolate, milk or white chocolate and pure chocolate.

Chocolate-covered Nuts

These are extremely addictive! Compared to other chocolate brands I have previously sampled (including those from Switzerland and France), this certainly stands out with its crunchy and slightly powdery texture, It was also not overly sweet. I had this to tide me over the exams and I finished the entire box in a week. Surprisingly, I didn't fall sick!

Handmade Chocolate Raspberry Jam with nuts

Thick and gooey, this huge jar of handmade jam only lasts two months after opening. The texture of the nuts comes out strongly in the jam, and this makes your bread feel more like biscuits because it is so crunchy! I couldn't detect much chocolate though; the raspberry taste was so strong, I felt like I was eating the fruit itself. Refrigeration is required even before opening, to prevent it from spoiling.

Classic Piper-Heidsieck Champagne

My family is saving this bottle for Christmas! Having previously fallen in love with Piper-Heidsieck at an event, I can guarantee it's the sort of champagne you can have many rounds of without ever feeling sick of the taste.

Hot Chocolate Mix

Oh my gosh — what a rarefied taste of chocolate this is! The Hot Chocolate Mix features coarser-grain chocolate powder that appears somewhat lumpy, but it dissolves smoothly in hot water. It is only after sipping (or gulping) this wonderful drink that I realised I haven't actually tasted a genuine cup of hot chocolate before! Forget about those chocolate drinks that taste no different from Milo or Ovaltine, and get the real deal.

Isn't it amazing that you can derive such pleasure in a delicate assortment of Wild Raspberry, Chocolate Mint, Strawberry Basil, Passion Fruit, Salted Caramel, and Dark Chocolate macarons? Presented in a magnetic box, these beautiful babies are evenly baked and melt readily in your mouth. I especially love them straight from the refrigerator - chilled, sweet heaven in your mouth.

Located in a small corner of Marina Bay Sands Hotel, this non-descript, simple-looking deli cafe actually concealed the best pastries. We attacked the counter filled with wide array of pastries on display the moment we entered, and grabbed a seat to share the various delectable cakes we'd selected.

The above two were our very favorites, and were highly recommended by various friends and reviews as well.

First, the Dark Chocolate Orange cake - the pastry itself was moist and buttery soft, sandwiched with dreamy chocolate mousse, and filled the mouth with aroma of dark chocolate and tangy fragrance of orange - hitting the right spots in all manners indeed.

Then we had the Raspberry Earl Grey cake - another wonderful creation of sour-sweetness infused with rich tea flavor - a lovely fusion of fruits and the slightly ashy tinge of Earl Grey. Simply divine, had our senses dancing with delight.
I had a tea too - oh, don't be fooled by its tacky paper-cup appearance - SweetSpot serves TWG teabags, in very limited flavors though.

One of the F&B in Marina Bay Sand, SweetSpot which is located at the hotel lobby Tower 3, offers delicious and petty looking desserts. This Christmas it offers a variety of Christmas goodies such as Exotic Fruit Yule Log and Panettone. One of the delights is SweetSpot Signature Christmas Tree which costs $58 and weighs 1kg each. It is actually walnut and almond pieces covered with chocolate, topped with sugar and M & M. It tastes nutty and not too sweet. Even Mom likes it.

Everytime I passby sweetspot bakery, I always wanted to order their cakes. This week was my Father birthday. Hence I had decided to order a strawberry birthday cake.

The strawberry cake appearance looked grand and mouth salivating. There were a few pieces of gold foil which can be eaten though I was not sure whether it was real gold.

On top of the cake was many fresh strawberries, some were sweet, some were quite sourish.

The cake was vanila sponge cake. It was soft, moist and fluffy with a thick layer of vanila mousse in between. The mousse texture goes well with the fluffy cake.

Taking away dessert after dinner, I received quite pleasant comments from pastry lovers for SweetSpot. It was a good chance for us to check out the standards this time.We bought five cupcakes in total. They were tiny but very delicated and tasty.They looked gorgeous right?

Juicy and fresh berries yet the overall was not too sweet.However, a thing you must know that they have no seat for their customers, so expect to stand and lean on these design

However, a thing you must know that they have no seat for their customers, so expect to stand and lean on these designer stands inside the cafe.

Surprise weekend getaway with hubby at Marina Bay Sands; To make it an even sweeter and romantic night he bought a few cakes from sweetspot downstairs to eat in the room with spectacular night view.
What/Where : SweetSpot @ Marina Bay Sands
What we ordered : White chocolate Rum Cake
Ambience : Modern, classy and clean store with limited seats
Service : Good and fast service.
Portion : Unique design cake, soft sponge with white chocolate mousse wrapped in nutty crunchy chocolate shell; taste gone up another level when you squeeze the Rum (from the small tube) into the cake.
Location : Marina Bay Sands, nice beautiful hotel/mall with lots of high end restaurant and shops. Conveniently located in town.

White Raspberry Cake ($9)
Though enrobed with a green chocolate case, this consists neither matcha nor pistachio. But is simply a very sweet white chocolate mousse with tangy raspberry compote and a layer of sponge cake. The texture was smooth and everything fits well, but not convincing for a second try.

Whipsands ($7)
Compared to the lego cake, Whipsands, a chocolate caramel cake, would leave one yearning for more.
It consists of a sweet Milk chocolate with thick gooey caramel and candied cashew and an addictive layer of crunchy praline at the base.

Sweet Thyme and Orange ($7)
The Sweet Thyme and Orange sounds special and worth trying if you don't mind herbs and spices in cakes. The mandarin orange cream centre sitting on a hazelnut meringue sponge cake is surrounded by a thyme-infused white chocolate mousse. The sweetness of the white chocolate mousse overshadowed the taste of thyme though.

Lychee rose mousse cake ($9)
No matter how poor the food may taste, I usually tell people to go for a try because taste is subjective. But this Lychee rose mousse with raspberry could not have been produced by the same team which came up with the delicious creations above. It was not mousse but like a chewy rubber which could be due to too much gelatin powder. It is just too simple to be priced as the most expensive cake among the selection.

In short, this was my Nth visit but I will still be back. One thing good about the shop is that some items, besides their signature chocolate paradigm, often change after a certain period. Apart from this, they have macarons, bread and chocolate truffles just like a typical Patisserie. Did I forget to say that their giant macadamia peanut butter($2.50) cookie was sinfully delicious too?

Macaroons has been a newly sweet dessert that are very popular nowadays. Macaroons have an unique yet cute shape with many colours. In between there's a layer of cream. I love the most the dark chocolate and blueberry the most among all. The dark chocolate has a little bit heavy chocolate taste and for blueberry, I think it;s simply because I love blue berry fruit itself ^^Overall they are all very sweet!!

Located at the ground floor at the MBS hotel side, this dessert place is pretty eye-catching, not to mention that the chocolate/ cookies smell is simply irresistible. I was not into chocolate that day, hence I bought this gorgeous looking pinkish dessert! It is like the giant version of macaron, and it tastes like one too. I like the crispiness of the meringue kind of crusts. The fresh but slightly sour raspberries in between the crusts balances the sweetness of the meringue so well. Love it!
