The Good
It was a delightful start with the Biscoffee Soufflé Pancake. We found the pancake wonderfully airy from top to bottom, without the stodgy, gummy centre that can so easily spoil this style of dessert. The Biscoff crumble provided a pleasant sandy crunch and gentle warmth, beautifully contrasting the lighter pancake without overwhelming it with sugar. A thoroughly enjoyable rendition.
The Mediocre
The Masarap Ube Drink certainly impressed us on presentation. The intricate bear latte art sat beautifully against the purple ube, while the drink itself was silky smooth and carried a distinctive ube flavour. Unfortunately, the sweetness became rather tiring as we worked through the cup, taking the shine off an otherwise attractive creation.
The Bad
Nothing.
The Verdict
Kumo Desserts is well worth considering for its excellent soufflé pancakes, with the Biscoff version proving the highlight of our visit. The ube drink offers considerable visual appeal but would benefit from a more restrained sweetness. Even with the queue outside, which moved along quickly, we found the pancakes worth waiting for. Dessert lovers should make those their priority.
