Cova Pasticceria, Paragon

We picked up a couple of desserts at Cova after sending our stuff to the dry cleaners. Cova offers a mind-boggling assortment of tantalising desserts, and we didn't get to try them the last time we were there because we were so stuffed by then. Desserts here are admittedly pricey, so it's best to get the desserts after 8pm, as they go for half the price then. Much more worth it.

The Dark & White Chocolate Cake ($8) was awesome. I gobbled it up so fast that the Fiance didn't get a chance to taste this. Opps. The dark chocolate, with its bittersweet overtones, married well with the rich milkyness of the white chocolate. A semi-tart blackberry, raspberry and strawberry provided a brilliant counterfoil to the rich, creamy dessert. I preferred this over the cheesecake below.


The vanilla in the Vanilla Cheesecake ($8) was barely noticeable, but there was a distinct lemony scent and taste that permeated the dense, creamy cake, lending a fresh twist to the classically rich dessert.

Update 29 October 2012: Cova has closed and made way for PODI The Food Orchard by the people behind Cedele.
