don't ever say it's too heavy

CROWN BAKERY. 215 Swanston Street.
CROWN BAKERY. 2nd floor, Melbourne Central Foodcourt.

Crown is a bakery. It sells cake. and coffee. and normal stuff a bakery would sell. But Crown expanded since last year.
Besides opening a second shop in the food court of Melbourne Central, it is also providing the cakes for BreadTop, which I also will be reviewing soon.
Well, it's really simple. Say you walk into the shop. If you decide to have the cake in the shop, it'll cost $3.60 for a slice of cake.
If you take away, it's $3.30.
So it's kinda reasonable, considering the fact that if you go along Lygon or any 'high class' cafe they'd charge you at least $7.
If you take that amount of money and go to Crown, you get two slices of cake. Although it's smaller, I still think it's a plus on value.
The choice is great ranging from tiramisu to chocolate fudge cake to black forrest to mango cheese to strawberry.
But for now, I shall review the Green Tea cake.
It's great. It's not like other 'green tea' food which everyone tried to make the tea fragrance really heavy and thick and in the end you have no idea what you were eating.
The taste of green tea in this cake is light, yet enough for you to realise it's green tea. The cake is soft and tender.
You get red beans in between the layers of cake. Which balanes the bitter taste of tea. That was a nice touch.
The whipped cream wasn't too greasy as well. Although I'm still kinda reluctant to actually have a mouth full fo the cream.
Overall, I was surprised. A must try for cake/green tea lovers. Mango chesse used to be my only favourite. Now seems like I have two favourites in Crown.
