Salted Egg Croissants

☆NEW ITEM☆
Jumping on the bandwagon slightly late, Starbucks now offers new mid-day treat like Salted Egg Yolk Lava Croissant. Purchase together with Latte/Cappucino at $6.90. Only for available for a limited time, from 3pm to 6pm.

Review:
After tasting 9 Salted Egg Croissants, I would say that Starbucks' Salted Egg Croissant exudes a strong eggy aftertaste. The croissant itself, has savoury and buttery fragrance, but personally felt the buttery part could be stronger.

Do.Main Bakery :
The only Salted Egg Croissant ($6) that is different from the others in Singapore. Instead of having a sweet custard filling, @do_main_bakery adds cheese into their salted egg custard. The cheesy, creamy and savoury custard, along with the flaky and fragrant pastry would be best accompanied with a cup of coffee/tea. The best part of eating at Do.Main Bakery is that you also get to feast your eyes on how the pastries are made; the smoothness of the dough that was rolled out by the chef is simply satisfying.

Black & Ink :
Enjoy the warm afternoon with a Salted Egg Croissant ($5.50) and Iced Mocha ($6). The buttery and crispy pastry complements the creamy salted egg custard making it quite an addictive afternoon treat. Personally, this is the best salted egg croissant I've had so far. Yums!

Bridge is one of the places that filled its whole croissant ($5.90) with salted egg custard; literally from one tip to the other. However, the taste of the custard was too bland even though there were still small chunks of salted egg within. The custard was not as smooth as the rest, and has a powdery texture. The pastry was light and fluffy, and not as buttery.

The Salted Egg Croissant ($6.90) has light and fluffly pastry, with a buttery taste to it. On the other hand, the salted egg custard was a tad too stingy on their end. Although a drip of custard did flow out, that was all it had for my whole croissant. Nonetheless, their service impressed me as they offer to reserve a croissant for me when I enquired about it over Facebook. Many thanks to Mr Rizal who reserved it! @dapaologroup

The Kokolava Croissant ($6.50) comes in 3 different flavors: Salted Egg, Peanut, Custard. The pastry at Kokomama is much denser and less buttery. The salted egg custard was savoury, similar to the taste of the salted egg in Salted Egg Prawn from zi char stall; hence, it didn't quite complement with the pastry.
