Bengawan Solo

My family was able to redeem a cake from Bengawan Solo due to one of our relatives' baby shower. We were so lucky! This Banana Cake ($8.80 for a small-sized cake) is sooo good! The cake is moist and full of banana flavour. It is also easy to slice owing to its smooth texture. For $8.80, it is considered affordable for the quality that you get. We devoured this cake and finished it all very quickly. It was great!…查看更多

For this year's birthday, my sister bought a more oriental/Singaporean tasting cake - Bengawan Solo's Pandan Cake! To be honest, this is not my favorite cake from Bengawan Solo. I would give kudos to Bengawan Solo for their creativity in the construction of the cake. The cake has alternate layers of sponge cake and agar agar which gives a unique texture to it. However, I felt that the agar agar could do with more sugar. It might have also been better if there were some cream to go with the cake. Perhaps, older people would like it since its Pandan flavored but this is really just not my type of cake. :/…查看更多

Usually when I visit this bakery shop, I will normally buy their kaya cakes and the tin biscuits. This is my first time buying their kueh to try. Bought two pieces of kueh ambon for my breakfast. The texture is very moist and firm, and it is full of the egg fragrant in it. At $1 per piece, I think it is priced quite reasonable for everyone to buy. The shop is very neat and service staffs are quite friendly as well. …查看更多

Even though there are lots of places selling egg tarts and egg tarts comes in a variety be it regarding its pastry or it's flavour, i still like Bengawan Solo ones when once in a while my craving for egg tarts strike me strongly. Bengawan's egg tart is different from the rest as its pastry casing is not those well-loved flaky type, nor is it the crumbly, crunchy cookie type. Instead, it is a 'cookie' like dough, but soft in texture and sweeter than average tart dough. Paired with the smooth egg custard filling, it is very satisfying. :)…查看更多

It has been long since I had a cake from Bengawan Solo, and the last i remembered, the black forest cake did not look like this. But despite the changes in appearance, the taste of the cake, and its fillings remains. Jam filled the middle layer instead of cherries as would be expected of black forest cakes. The cream aren't soft and fluffy. Over all, it is still a no frill decent cake that could be shared. …查看更多
