| - Sugar Peony's cakes look stunning and seem to have good variety, but unfortunately I didn't have any of those so can't comment. This 3 star rating is therefore solely for the macarons, which were really hit-and-miss.
The "hit" part:
- Really unique and interesting flavours like ube coconut (my favourite flavour of the bunch), french moka cafe, coco pandan, birthday cake, and (the ever-polarizing) durian
- Cute "character" macarons (like Winnie the Pooh and Hello Kitty)
- The ube coconut macaron was exquisitely done: crunchy outer shell that just melted as you bite into it, really smooth cream with just the right amount to taste the unique coconut flavour
The "miss" part:
- Lack of consistency with the macarons, with many of them having an overly chewy exterior and a surprisingly "hard" cream filling (out of the 12 we got, 9 were like this)
- Got a deal through Groupon - would have been expensive if I hadn't
Overall, I'd go hereto get cute and pretty macarons with pretty unique flavours, but would look elsewhere if I were prioritizing the taste.
