After lunch at Iggy's, we walked over to ION Orchard to walk off our lunch. We stumbled upon Awfully Chocolate after a bit of walking. This little cake shop sells all things chocolate, including their signature dark chocolate cake with dark chocolate fudge, the only cake they sold when they started their business. How bold, but it worked since they now have more than 15 franchises around Taiwan, China and Hong Kong.
The menu is pretty small, but I wanted to try EVERYTHING they had to offer. But my stomach ain't big enough :P There are cupcakes, ice cream, Kahlua bars, chocolate banana cake and chocolate rum and cherry cake! Anyway two cakes/creations caught my attention,the white chocolate butterscotch block and cold poached chocolate.
Can I have whole block please?
Cold poached chocolate
Kahlua bars
Rich chocolate cupcakes
Since their outlet in ION Orchard does not have any seating, we bought the goodies that we wanted and hurried back to the hotel to eat it. But before that, some photos first of cos :P

The cold poached chocolate (S$5.60) is a soft rich dark cold chocolate invention created using their cold poaching methods, topped with a choice of cream. We went for the Kahlua cream (S$1.50) topping. It was indeed rich and indulgent, and although I am a huge chocolate fan, I would really struggle to finish this on my own.

After trying the white butterscotch block, I am in love with it. This is the perfect combination of the sweet chocolate and sweet-salty butterscotch with a dark chocolate swiss roll. Everything just went so well together. We went for a 100g slab (it is made as a huge block and they cut off as much as you want as it is charged per 100g), I found this to be very much lighter than the cold poached chocolate and I wouldn't mind eating more of this!

Verdict: Love the white chocolate butterscotch block... it's absolutely heavenly.

DeleteWOW! Heaven!! Guess I will not be able to decide what to choose. Bring the whole shop back! hahaha...
ReplyDeleteI also wish I could try everything!
DeleteTheir cakes are addictive... is there a branch in Malaysia?
ReplyDeleteUnfortunately no :(
Deleteawfully chocolate. what a name...
ReplyDeletechocolates is my best buddies...
Which type you prefer -milk, white or dark?
DeleteWahhhhh... this is awfully very sinful! But I LIKE =D
ReplyDeleteHehe too bad the franchise hasn't reached KL yet!
DeleteThe white chocolate butterscotch block looks really great. I want a slice too!
ReplyDeleteI love that too!
DeleteI'm so having this when I go to SG soon. Wanted to try during my last visit, but the queue was too long and I was pressed for time.
ReplyDeleteOh got queue one ah? Then we must be very lucky since we were the only one in line at ION Orchard outlet. :P
Deleteomigosh, droool ... what a great name for a shop, and what a great-looking cold-poached chocolate. it's like my ideal dessert, creamy and rich all the way through! i bet i'd love the kahlua bar too, cos that looks sooooo decadent!
ReplyDeleteI knew you would like the cold poached chocolate, I rmbr u saying before that you like you cakes with lots and lots of cream.
DeleteThat white choc butterscotch wins hands down! Such sweet indulgence!
ReplyDeleteIt's quite light so you can eat lots of it :P
DeleteI wonder how you can stuff so much desserts in your tummy and yet still looking great!!!! But the chocolate doesn't look VERY appealing.. ;P I prefer those kind of confectionery that's totally dark-brown(as you can easily judge that this is heavy-loaded with chocolate/cacao) ~ Yummm~~~
ReplyDeleteI think they use cocoa above 70% here, the cold poached chocolate is really rich.
Deletei missed out this one during my last trip!
ReplyDeletealmost get to try this. but then went for udders instead. haih

DeleteHahahahaha the conclusion from reviewing this blog post and the last suggests NOT everyone loves steak, BUT everyone LOVES chocolate !!
ReplyDeleteThat's so true! What if I put chocolate sauce on steak?
DeleteHow can awefully and chocolate be in the same sentence!? Looks too delicious. :-)
ReplyDeleteAwfully (GOOD) chocolate ;P
DeleteThe white chocolate butterscotch block looks so light and fluffy! I think I'd go for this too :)
