LE Cafe Confectionary & Pastry (Cambridge Road)

These 𝗯𝗲𝗮𝗻𝗰𝘂𝗿𝗱 𝘁𝗮𝗿𝘁𝘀 ($10/box of 8) from @lecafe_sg have been extremely popular in the past months, and it's not hard to see why.

That beancurd was consistently bouncy and silky — just look at that perfect gloss. Tart was buttery and crumbled excitedly with a light bite. Really nice contrast and mixture of textures. 😩

A marriage of lao ban and egg tart, my childhood favourites. All I get are wholesome old-school vibes seeing them get married beautifully.

The beancurd filling is silky smooth, with the slightest tinge of sweetness! I can’t imagine someone with a sweet tooth liking this though, as it is rather light, almost erring on the side of being bland. But I personally really enjoyed the soft and light beancurd!

However, I felt that the crust didn’t balance the light beancurd well. They definitely err on the thicker side, but are also fairly inconsistent in thickness. 🥴 The crust I had on the first day was almost as thick as the filling, and was so hard!! The tart I had the next day faired much better though, with a better filling to tart ratio, and it was a lot softer!

Friendly services!

It is a tradition for us to have this every year. While the pineapple balls deliver the consistent quality (soft pineapple filling with right texture pastry), the service for this branch has been otherwise. We are not impressed and will probably skip it next year. It’s the time normally they up the price (from $10.20 to $15) but we hope the service can be matched up too! 🤓

Very affordable, and consistently good over the years! So good that one can eat 3 at a go :)
