Pâtisserie Tony Wong Metroplaza (Hong Kong, CHINA) ★★★☆☆

Life has been pretty boring of late so after leaving work a little early this afternoon, I decided to swing by Patisserie Tony Wong in Kwai Fong for some sweet treats to spice things up.



As always, there are some new seasonal items in place of old ones including the very eye-catching durian-shaped chiffon cake.



Ivory White ($50) - I have been sampling different cheesecakes around the city for my research on some of the best cheesecakes in town so this immediately caught my eyes.



The Ivory White composed of a sweet almond crust, white cheese mousse, strawberry confit and vanilla sponge, finished with a circular peach jelly on top. It looks adorable and the flavors very light and refreshing too.



It's the entire opposite to an American cheesecake. The texture was soft and very airy. I like the contrasting flavors from the different layers too, with a nice mix of sweetness (white peach, sweet almond crust) and acidity (strawberry).



Musang King Durian Chiffon Cake ($65) - I got this for Jelloman because she's such a durian addict.



Unlike the previous cheesecake, this durian themed chiffon cake was a very simple one with silky durian mousse and a durian flesh centre made with Musang King durian, sitting on top of a crispy Breton tart. You can really smell the aroma from the durian from miles away.
