Lady M's cakes are so beautiful that we sometimes feel bad cutting into them. And yet, leaving them untouched would be a sin akin to blasphemy as they are just as delicious as they are visually striking.
This season, the iconic cake shop has raised the bar even further with a delicious Tres Leches Mille Crêpes cake, already available for pickup at various Lady M locations.
The traditional Latin treat boasts layers of milk-soaked vanilla sponge cake made with a combination of three milks and a hint of toasted coconut. "Handmade cream infused with blonde chocolate is gently brushed between every crêpe layer, finished with a light whipped cream topping and a sprinkling of crunchy coconut flakes," reads an official description of the delicacy. The price? A very worth-it $98.
Lady M's springtime menu also includes a strawberry shortcake made with superfine flour from Japan. The delicate vanilla sponge cake is then layered with fresh strawberries and whipped cream. Other standouts are the world-famous signature Mille crêpes cake, which features 20 layers of handmade, paper-thin crepes layered with light pastry cream, and the pistachio mille crêpes cake, which is prepared with California pistachios.
The dessert store has made a name for itself among local culinary circles in large part thanks to the intricate-yet-accessible sweets it is constantly dishing out in connection to specific holidays.
Remember this purple Ube cake baked in honor of Filipino Heritage Month, for example? A hit across town, it was made with purple yam cream, purple yam paste, purple yam crumbles and snow sugar.
