If you love luscious desserts, Sucrose's fab four temptations will be irresistible, creamy and dreamy, named cryptically for four women - Eva, Audrey, Liu Ying and Josephine.
It's challenging to choose a favourite, but Eva certainly wins our heart - a chocolate Paris-Brest layered with hazelnut cream and hazelnut praline, decadently rich but not cloying, sumptuous and scrumptious.
Audrey is like a cheesecake, elevated - densely soft and smooth chilled cheese mousse with baked cheese on a crumbly-crunchy McVities Digestive base.
Liu Ying is aromatic with apples, a caramelised apple cinnamon tatin nectarously encased in a panna cotta donut, a terrific testament to Sucrose pastry chef CK's talents.
Josephine is peanut mousse with choco sponge and a feuilletine base, indulgently fluffy-nutty, like Snickers on steroids. Sucrose's desserts cost a relatively high RM35 for two, but its confident use of top-notch ingredients makes each worthwhile.
Note: Sucrose is essentially a dessert kitchen and counter in a striking set-up on the doorstep of Imbi's Curee cafe.
