Yes finally got to try this highly recommended by other reviewers!! Tasted like a goooddd matcha tiramisu - the mascarpone cheese was a great complement to the matcha sponge hehe. Still on the search for good matcha cakes!!
Also do not have a photo of Le Mmm but that was one good chocolate cake ahsisksb
One foot in the glass doors of this beautifully furnished dessert boutique cafe and I knew the longing to visit this place with mum, after a friend introduced their sliced cakes to me at a dinner gathering (at that point in a takeaway box), was not unfounded.
The dainty cakes here goes into my category of ânice to admire and nice to fork onâ; I personally favoured the Raspberry Yuzu flavor over the Le Omm (Matcha). The refreshingly citrusy moist sponge of the former outshone the pale tasting latter.
We never fail to stop by Nesuto whenever we're at the tanjong pagar area, as all their pastries are absolutely divine! For $9 each (and with the burpple beyond deal), these complex desserts are possibly even underpriced.
All the pastries incorporate contrasting textures and complementary flavours, and is definitely an elevated cafe experience. Other excellent favourites are the Le Omm and Miss Isphan, and their range of teas are also... interesting to say the least.
10/10 will always return haha
Matcha with azuki bean cake, not overly sweet and will not taste jelak as you eat. Great as a cake for most who don't like it too sweet
all the cakes were soft, airy and moist, and while they were generous with the whipped cream, it doesnât taste heavy / greasy. tldr: you shld come and visit even if youâre not in the vicinity.
personally, i love floral & fruity cakes so i was immediately sold on miss ispahan. tbh the combination of rose & lychee must be the new classic - the sweetnesss from the fruit and the floral tones from the roses is probs the best combi these days, and nesuto never failed to deliver. you could taste the rose creme with every bite, and paired with the sweetness of the white chocolate and lychee, itâs so delightfully refreshing.
orelys cassis tasted unassuming at first, when you only bite into the sponge cake with the creme (but then again as a vanilla fan, i found it amazing đ) as you tore the cake apart, the blueberry gelee came into the picture and wow, it became an explosion of tartness on your tastebuds. take the cake, gelee and underlying biscuit in a bite and itâs a wonderful mixture of sweet and sour.
you can never go wrong with matcha or you can go terribly wrong, and thankfully le omm belonged to the former. the azuki was not overly sweet and didnât overwhelm the taste of matcha in the cake. the matcha cake and creme complemented the sweetness with a slight hint of bitterness. overall a very light and enjoyable dessert.
definitely not a fan of tiramisu and try to avoid it at all cost. but the tiramisu here was sth i can be convinced to have a second helping of. the taste of coffee was prevalent but didnât overwhelm the other components of the cake, though the alcohol was a tad too strong.
Le Omm
$9 | Needless to say, Matcha and Azuki red bean paste always goes well together! Cake is very moist and soft. Azuki red bean paste was spread between the layers of the cake and itâs not too sweet. Slightly disappointed at how the matcha taste is not very strong.
C3 Cheesecake
$9 | Delightfully light. The salted caramel chocolate base was a good touch as it takes away the rather cloying nature of most cheesecakes we usually think about.
If you are a cheesecake fanatics, then you might be disappointed with this as it does not have very strong cream cheese taste. For people who are neutral with it or dislike cheesecake for the jelak-ness, then this is a good alternative.
Can't decide which cakes to order as they are all fabulous! Ordered the signature cakes- Miss Ispahan, Le Omm(matcha) & Le Goma. Love the texture of the cakes - moist & light with quality ingredients. Each cake is unique in itself. Miss Ispahan is refreshing with different textures in each bite. Will definitely come again.
The quality and flavour bursts you get out of Nesuto cakes are insane! My personal favourite was the Matcha cake (Le Omm, I believe is its name). Light, moist - layered with Matcha tea and red bean skin that gives it a light texture. Youâve to try it to understand what I mean. As the cakes are made with whipped cream and mousse, itâs best to have it in the cafe itself. I mean, why wouldnât you? Itâs a nice and cosy place, perfect for meetups and chats. Will definitely be back again đđđť
