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
