Went shopping for traditional wedding cakes for my Guo Da Li. Guo Da Li - "过大礼" is offering dowry and gifts to the girl's parents by the guy and his family. The girl side also will need prepare gift in return (as jia chuang - "送嫁妆").
We went down to "Le Cafe" at Middle Road to make enquiries as we loved the golf-ball size pineapple tarts from them. They have 2 types of cakes - Marble Round Cake and the Butter Cream Cake.
In the end, we chose the marble round cake as it will be more acceptable by most people. Butter cream are more unhealthy and make people feel greasy after consuming the cake. So considerate right? We placed an order for 12 wedding cakes.
Initially, the boss was not able to take our order as she will be busy making pineapple tarts for CNY. But I am really glad she agree to take our order regardless. The boss is even sweet enough to give us two soya tart. Really yummy.It is definitely nicer than the normal egg tart and much more healthier.
Here is the address for "LE CAFE CONFECTIONERY & PASTRY" - 264 Middle Road Singapore 188990 Tel/Fax: +65 6337 2417. For orders for pineapple tarts for CNY, please place your order early, else all will be gone before you know. Give the soya tart a try, you wont regret it.
