GULA MELAKA CRUFFIN
LAVIE BOULANGERIE (Previous: Bakerry La Artisan Boulangerie), Petaling Jaya
BRIEF: “Dive into Merdeka vibes and say hello to our Gula Melaka Kaya Merdeka Cruffin ~ Imagine a cruffin masterpiece oozing Coconut Kaya, coconut milk, Gula Melaka & a dash of egg-citement. Topped with sugary love, meringue, coconut flakes, and a whole lot of patriotic yum.”
SOOT’S TAKE: After their amazing croissant, this just seemed somewhat underwhelming. Perhaps it was because I had this to go and the whole thing had softened from the humidity? Or perhaps the attempt to balance the richness of laminated pastry with a relatively paltry amount of filling (at least compared to more substantially filled traditional kaya toasts) just let the whole thing down? Still, their croissant made me not want to give up on their laminated pastry and so I may try their other cruffins in store next time.
