Wild Sweet Review Again

So it was Father's Day and I wanted to get daddy a cake since I got one for mommy, have to be fair. I went to Wild Sweets again because there are still a few cakes I wanted to try.

I got an e-mail from them introducing some new sweets for the summer and thought great timing. I got the Strawberry Cream C Puff2 and the Praline Cream C Puff2 ($4.99 each). When I saw the actual thing, it looked a tiny bit different from the site but close enough. I knew they were gonna be tiny from last time experience but that's ok as well.

When I lifted the puffs out of the recyclable containers, the puffs felt heavy, I guess because of the filling? One of the pink petal chocolates broke off when I opened the container. The petal chocolate presentation were like ears sticking out from the puff online but the real thing looked like it's just surrounding the puff. I guess it's because if it was sticking out, it wouldn't fit the take out container? However, it actually did look like a petal, very pretty. The long green chocolates, I thought they could be thinner, maybe it would look better? I like those pink chocolate crispy balls (cereal?). I didn't really like the mint leafs on there, it was too minty, I couldn't taste anything after it.

Then there were 2 squeezable orange and green tubes. I guess I was supposed to squeeze it into the puff, which I did. I tried them alone, the orange tube had a fruity taste to it but it wasn't sweet or anything, it was kind of like a flavoured oil. The green one was similar to the orange but it was a minty taste.

When I cut into the puffs, there were cream on top and strawberry/praline cream on the bottom. The cream texture was more runny than I expected, maybe because it wasn't cold enough? I'm not too sure what praline taste like but it had a hazelnut taste to me. I couldn't really taste any strawberry flavour in the other puff?

Overall, I thought the cream puff presentation was very pretty and creative. It tasted ok but I don't think I will get their cream puffs again. Just a suggestion, maybe they can put the puffs onto those gold cardboard like thing that they put under cakes, maybe things wouldn't break off as easily? I will still try their other cakes though.

This time I got the Cherry Dark Chocolate Creme Brulee Gateau (cake, $23.99). It was small, as expected but it was very pretty. It was similar to the first cake that I bought from them. There were a cherry flavoured mousse layer, different chocolate flavoured layers with a crunchy chocolate bottom. It wasn't filling, I guess because the cherry mousse had a tiny bit of sour taste to it. I really like the bottom crunchy layer, it tasted a bit like hazelnut or Nutella. I thought it was really good, it wasn't too sweet, just perfect. One thing I didn't like was the pink chocolates on the cake, I believe they were white chocolate and I don't like white chocolate. It's just me so I'm sure other people will like it.

I will for sure keep trying their other cakes.
