It was my friend's birthday and we decided to get her a cake from Rive Gauche Patisserie since she had mentioned that she fancies their cakes. We got her the Strawberry Shortcake since she is a fan of strawberries. The cake costs $28. This is the smallest serving size which is just right for us since we had 6 people in total.

It was my friend's birthday and we decided to get her a cake from Rive Gauche Patisserie since she had mentioned that she fancies their cakes. We got her the Strawberry Shortcake since she is a fan of strawberries. The cake costs $28. This is the smallest serving size which is just right for us since we had 6 people in total. The strawberry shortcake is quite a creamy cake as the outer layer of the cake is made of cream and in between each strawberry is blops of fresh cream. The cake itself is vanilla sponge cake. There are two layers of vanilla sponge cake, separated by layers of cream. The layers of cream in between the cake also has sliced strawberries. I would say the cake is rather nice if you enjoy a creamy cake. The vanilla sponge is more dry than spongy which is quite a pity to me since I preferred a cake with a moist texture. The cream is very light and it doesn't feel too heavy or indulgent, so one can definitely finish the cake without any problem. Even though it is quite alright, but I didn't feel as though it is exceptionally good. That said, I will like to try their signature chocolate cake next time.
