O'Sulloc Jeju Island Green Tea Chocolate Bar




Just looking at all these items in O'Sulloc shop and the Tea House menu makes me want to be there! Even though I don't fancy going back to Jeju as I have been there in 2009, but I still hope to visit O'Sulloc somehow.

The Green Tea Chocolate Bar is pretty good, the mixture of the green tea and chocolate blend makes it such an enjoyable dessert.

Chateraise Japanese Sponge Cake Matcha





Chateraise, a popular patisserie from the Yamanashi prefecture, Japan, has been expanding rapidly in Singapore with stores opening in prominent areas one after another. Their prices are kept reasonable, considering that they are flown directly from Japan. Other than cakes which are a hit with the masses, their ice-creams are also pretty popular with the OLs ( office ladies ) working nearby.



The Japanese Matcha Sponge Cake caught my eye so into my basket, it goes. Still have so many snacks in the store for me to try. :P



The packaging looks great and polished. Open up to reveal a very simple looking sponge cake with the green to remind you that its matcha. Being a matchaholic, I will prefer the matcha taste to be stronger and bitter, however this simple matcha sponge cake is still a delight during a tea break.

Matcha Swiss Roll at The Plain Jane





After hearing much hype about their swiss rolls online, I decided to try the Matcha Swiss Roll at The Plain Jane for myself. Unfortunately, it did not sit too well with my taste buds. It is decent but not WOW for me.

The matcha swiss roll has a soft and fluffy texture but not as moist as I expected. Its matcha flavour is more to the milky side than to the matcha bitterness taste preferred.

At $5.90 and located in a neighbourhood area, I thought the prices can be kept slightly lower to cater to the neighbourhood folks.



Matcha + Houjicha Soft Serve at Tsujiri Singapore




It is always difficult to reject a soft serve, especially when it comes with 2 of my favourite flavours.
The matcha flavour is pretty subtle while the houjicha is much better and is my preferred choice.

SHUU ( Choux Puffs ) By Koki Tamagoyaki



So in love with the matcha choux puffs, priced at $4.30.

The exterior has a crumbly texture, but it was soft when I had it the following day as breakfast. It probably may be crispy if I had it on the same day though. 




I am definitely impressed with the overflowing Gyomuyo Maccha filling enveloped within a thin layer of croquant that its so satisfying with each bite. There is a slight bitterness to the smooth creamy custard and is perfect the way I like it. 


DIY Corsage





Swirl, a vintage-inspired shop in Singapore, have shared on how to DIY fabric corsages.
Its also ideal to get your scraps of material to do this corsage.

What is exactly a corsage?
It is a single flower or several small flowers, worn pinned.

A corsage is generally worn on the left side, just under the shoulder. It should be pinned with the stem down, the same way it would be planted in the ground.

I was crazy on corsages some time back because I thought it was just so pretty to add colour to an oh-so-boring top but everywhere I look, the corsages seems almost similar everywhere or even overpriced. I did eventually buy some to jazz up my outfit or a bag though but from Bangkok. The same piece was way overpriced in Singapore.

It can be worn at the shoulder, over the shoulder, in the hair, on the wrist, at the waist, hem line, on a hat, or even on an evening bag. Etiquette indicates that no matter how it is worn, it is most always worn on the left side.

Here are some ideas
