Baileys Irish Cream Tea Cake from The Cookie Museum


This place (8 Raffles Avenue, #01-02/04 Esplanade Mall, tel: 6333 1965) was previously known as the V Tea Room. I've always been curious about them but haven't walked in until today. It all started with just sampling some cookies that they had on sale and while looking around, I decided to try their Baileys Irish Cream tea cake - something that I recall from seeing here some time back. 

This cake sure was pricey. Then again, so was everything else on menu. The fairly generous portion of single serving dessert was a squarish log of dense butter like cake filled with bits of hazelnut, sitting in a pool of espresso/Baileys mixture. The cake was heated up before adding four dollops of cream and upon serving, had a shot of Baileys poured over the top. This was not bad but I guess most of what made it good was the Baileys.
