Revlon Sandalwood Beige Lipstick

I've searched high and low for the Revlon Sandalwood Beige lipstick. I've always wanted to try on nude lips but to find for a perfect color for me is hard as I have a dark skin tone. Seeing the ads is refreshing, knowing that I could go for the look. Unfortunately, I couldn't find it anywhere; Mid Valley, KLCC etc.

If you're looking for the color, you can find it at Guardian IOI Mall and Guardian Endah Parade. They have a few left on the shelves. :) According to Revlon sales person, the color has been discontinued last year but now they're going to resume the production. It's going to take time to get here though.

It glides on your lips evenly and it moisturized your lips. I love it to bits! The color is however a little bit orange-y to me. I have to powdered my lips, apply the lipstick and dab with tissue to get the perfect color for me.

The price is RM33 (regular) but Guardian is having sale right now and you can get it for RM19.98! It's a steal!

The Best Red Velvet in KL (Part 3)

Actually I blogged about Nadia's Red Velvet Cake while writting for The Daily Grind. I believe that she deserves to get a whole page to herself. She made me so happy with the cupcakes. I was struggling to finish up the cupcakes, not because it was bad but it was heavenly good. I don't know when will get to taste that again. I know she's pretty busy with work and tries really hard to juggle with orders etc. I can't forget the first time I ordered from her. I loved it so much! It was really good. Without any reason, I ordered the second time from her. It wasn't as good as the first time but it was still yummy. Maybe the bar is too high even for her. lol!

I can't wait to try for the 3rd time. I've ordered a cake from her for my 3rd anniversary! I hope my hubby loves it! Here are the photos for your drooling pleasure... Yum!

Cute huh?

Nonchalant yet heavenly tasted cake

Has anyone seen a Rainbow Velvet Cake before?? :)

The Best Red Velvet in KL (Part 2)

Blogged about my experience with The Daily Grind Red Velvet Cake earlier. I suddenly have this insatiable craving over the Red Devil. Right after my training, I went to Empire Shopping Mall Subang to try another joint selling the Red Velvet Cake. This is due to astounding reviews for the cakes. I've got to try it out!

It was my first time at Empire Shopping Mall so I was a little out of my element. While strolling along the lower ground, we finally found a cafe called Whisk Espresso Bar & Bake Shop. It's small and cosy place, nearby Jaya Grocer.

We had Red Velvet Cake, Carrot Cake, Hazelnut Latte and Coffee Latte. It cost us RM45. The cake priced at RM11.90 each. Hurmm.. to think bout it, I could have a whole cake for that kind of price. Haha!

OK, here goes my review.. The cake came first before the coffee. I had my first bite and it was crazy sweet! It was like a rush to the brain and I actually get a really bad headache after eating it. No joke! I don't know how would people consider that Whisk has the best Red Velvet and Carrot Cake. Seriously, I won't go there again for their cakes. I'd love to taste the macaroon though... This is just my personal views.. *ducks* As for the coffee, I think the barista did a good job in making us a good cup of coffee. We didn't add any sugar to it, thanks to the kind reminder written at the cafe - Try the coffee first before adding the sugar. Safe to say, by consuming the cake while taking the hot coffee latte (non-sugar) is actually bearable. We didn't finish the cakes though.

Verdict: Definately NOT the best red velvet cake *in my book*.. Still looking for the best.. At this point, The Daily Grind come in close second after Nadia's cupcake..

Next: I want to try the Red Devil from A Taste Boutique. I went to the shop yesterday and it's closed. Really can't wait to try it out!

*If you have found your dream Red Velvet Cake, do leave a message. I'd love to try it out.

Found a beautiful picture of the Red Velvet Cake. It was too dark. :P

3. Nadia's cake - Love frosting!

Dislike:
1. Whisk - Too sweet and definitely overrated!

*This is my personal review. I don't get paid giving the review. It's for my love for the food! :)

I'm in the midst of hunting for the best Red Velvet Cake in KL for quite some time now. I love my "jalan-jalan cari makan" moment with my hubby. It's wonderful to share delicious food experience with someone special! My mom came back from Ireland - stayed at my brother's house for 2 weeks. I've been craving for Red Velvet for quite awhile so I took the "oppportunity" to buy 1 whole cake of the red devil! As I read reviews over the net, many of them suggested to get the Red devil from The Daily Grind. Without thinking, I picked up the phone and ordered it! It cost me RM99.76 (plus tax)! Pretty darn expensive for a cake huh?! Argh! Never mind that. Regret later... Everyone was shocked by looking at the size of it. We didn't have party or anything. Just family affairs. It was HUGE! Not too bad for a RM99.76 cake! ;) I've tasted my first Red Velvet Cake baked my a dear friend of mine and I could still remember vividly of the cream cheese. It was sooo good! We ordered cupcakes from her and I enjoyed it to bits! I was hoping of getting the same effect from the cake. No. I hope for the better. Hehe! Well, now comes the review. The cake was good BUT it's not cream cheese. It's butter cream. The cake is still yummy but to me the icing is just not to that level. Maybe cuz I've had better? *duck* However,my sister loved it! So it depends to your own taste palate. Have it a try.. I think it cost about RM12 per slice.

The cake is huge!
