[Tokyo] Many Japanese shops do just one thing, and do it really well. Such as BAKE Cheese Tart ベイク チーズタルト which has caused long lines at Hong Kong and Bangkok.
The good news is, these yummilicious Hokkaido Cheese Tarts are coming to Singapore end of this month to ION Orchard. Cue the long queues.
Interestingly, these tarts started out as chilled blueberry cheese type, with its origins as a long-established Western confectionery store in Sapporo, Hokkaido.
Till the pastry chefs who made the cheese tarts told the owner, “You seem determined to sell them chilled in the stores, but they actually taste the best when they are freshly baked.”
So instead of chilled ones, they changed to sell them freshly baked and never looked back. These tarts with a combined crumbly exterior, fluffy texture, and cheesy sweet aroma became an instant hit.
The one main element of these cheese tarts?
They are all freshly baked, so much so that the shop promises to bake their freshest right until the last order —each and every day.
The verdict of these BAKE Cheese Tarts… Crispy crust and top, creamy warm oozing inside, very fluffy.
One of the best things ever to consume for Tokyo’s winter. You can also enjoy them chilled, as though you are eating frozen ice cream.
The tarts are not that pricey too, at 216 Yen (SGD$2.70, USD$2) for one. Note: Only 12 pieces allowed per customer.
Three different types of cream cheese – mild Hakodate, full-bodied Betsukai and saltier French cheese are blended to create the ultimate cheese mouse.
Its tart pastries created from cookies are twice baked – once as cookies, the next with cheese mousse on top.
BAKE Cheese Tart will open at Singapore’s ION Orchard end April. Look out for DanielFoodDiary.com for further updates!
