Shiberty Bakes is a dessert cafe opened by a blogger, tucked in a nice HDB Estate. I went there with high expectations after seeing all the pictures floating around Instagram. It certainly looked really good.
We ordered the Matcha Shiberty Toast ($16) cos I'm a huge fan of matcha, but for non-Matcha lovers fret not, there are other flavors to choose from. They do serve other items like waffles, macarons and cakes too. The toast came with 2 scoops of ice cream & random cookie bits and Kit Kat. Firstly, PRICE. I couldn't grasp the idea of paying $16 for bread. Fine, toasted fluffy bread. Secondly, it was just bread nicely decorated with a bunch of random stuff that didn't exactly pair with the toast. Thirdly, I was quite disappointed. I'm not sure if my expectations were too high due to the hype. But how nice can toast taste right? But to give it credit, it was buttery and light. However, slightly dry.
Overall, I was disappointed. Sometimes, looks are deceiving. I believe that she has nice desserts to offer (judging from all the other positive reviews) & perhaps I just went on a bad day. probably come back another time to try the other stuff she offers, perhaps I went on a bad day.
