upstairs cafe @ ss 12 part 2

decided to stop by upstairs for some cakes today. decided to try something differnt, hence did not go for the oh-so-yummy-gooey-brown-ees. instead, today, decided to try out their other signature-redvelvet. my 2nd time here for their desserts.

today. tried the red velvet. the cake was moist, very in fact. the frosting, not overly sweet, but i think they added a little lemon to give it a little tang. the cupcake itself was good, but i would have preferred better frosting to go with it. i feel like once you've had uk's hummingbird frosting, everything else just pales in comparison. 5 bucks for this cupcake. its not wow, but its definitely one of the better cupcakes i have had in malaysia.

chocolate torte cake. 5.90, this was a warm very moist chocolate cake minus the gooey centre of a choco molten cake. the cake was very well baked, punch of chocolate there. its not a special kind of cake, but its a good chocolate cake.

mint brownies-i'm a fan of mint chocolate-like i love after 8s and all but this was just a tad bit too minty for me. the brownees, nothing special. as in i prefer the ordinary brownies because of the gooeyness that made it special. but this one, was kind of ordinary and too minty. didn't like this that much. unless you are seriuosly s full fledge mint fan, u might not like this as well.

i wasn't as impressed as my first visit but i still stand by the best brownies being here=]

upstairs cafe @ ss12

this place is called upstairs cafe because its located upstairs, how apt a name right haha. its basically situated above the famous bawang merah near the hospital formerly known as sjmc.

this is heaven i assure u. the best brownies i've had. it has a thick gooey centre. its an explosion of chocolate goodness. thing is it comes in a small slice so you don't get sweet-sick after abit. personally i don't like whipped cream so i scrapped it aside, but the brownies, to die for. the best 5.90 i've spent on a dessert. the thick gooey centre-i cannot stop raving about it. trust me, it will be love at first bite.

also ordered the creme brulee. having the brownies was like in heaven but the creme brulee was like in hell. it was too creamy and just not creme brulee material at all. there was just no flavour to it. really, do not order this at all. it does not do creme brulees any justice. it was really that bad.

having said that. i would go back for the brownies any time. intersting thing is that they serve mint brownies. another of their specials ive heard are their red velvets, both cakes and cupcakes. definitely on my to try list the next time=]
