Rive Gauche Patisserie

I had passed by Rive Gauche a few times and never noticed it until I had a chance to try The Guanaja at a colleagues birthday and was pleasantly surprised! It was unlike any other chocolate cake I had had in Singapore, more like Praline with an almost cereal base, layers of a light chocolate mousse filling and topped with a dark chocolate ganache. For the amount of chocolate in this cake, it was surprisingly light, not rich at all and very flavourful.
The website has a detailed listing of the other varieties of cakes they have, with different sizes and prices. The Strawberry Shortcake looks the most appealing & seems to sell out fast. The stall in Takashimaya is in the food court area so its quite claustrophobic and crowded. I recommend ordering before hand and picking it up on a weekday if possible.
I’d say this is the perfect place to try out a new birthday cake if you’re looking for something different.
