| - I was handed one of these as a treat :) I have a notorious sweet tooth that is almost impossible to satisfy and am not one to pass up on dessert, calories be damned. These light pastry shells are stuffed with a custard cream of your choice of flavour (green tea, vanilla, chocolate, banana). They are not too sweet or too rich, but sweet enough to satisfy my cravings. I had the banana flavoured one and it was really banana-ey in a natural, real fruit kind of way.
I would have enjoyed my pastry more, and hence given it more stars had it not exploded all over my face, hands, clothes, hair....well you name it. I was covered in cream, and worst of all I was out in public! My fellow yelpers and bf had a good laugh watching me become a complete sticky mess as I ate this, and even more when entire glops started to drop on the floor, leaving a trail of custard as I walked.
So word of advice: Get one because they are yummy and totally worth trying at least once, but make sure you eat it by a sink, and have a paper towel roll beside you. If you can't control yourself and must eat it at the mall, then be prepared to have people stare at you as you get covered in custard.
