COVA Pasticceria-Confetteria---Gianduja Mousse

日期：2009-10-25

在"COVA Pasticceria-Confetteria"(中環太子大廈分店)買了"Gianduja Mousse(榛子朱古力慕思)"($28X)。

現在先學些意大利文和德文:

1.Pasticceria，意思是"Pastry(糕餅茶點)"。
2.Confetteria，意思是"Confectionery(糖果)"。
3.Caffè，意思是"Coffee(咖啡)"。
4.Ristorante，意思是"Restaurant(餐廳)"。
5.Gianduiotti，意思是"Gianduja(榛子醬朱古力)"。榛子醬含量達30%或以上。由Pierre Paul Caffarel和Michele Prochet於1852年發明。
6.Torte，意思是"Cake(蛋糕)"。
7.Sachertorte，意思是"Sacher Cake(Sacher朱古力蛋糕)"。由奧地利猶太人Franz Sacher於1832年發明。

"COVA"是意大利米蘭一家糕餅茶點糖果店、餐廳和咖啡廳，始於1817年。1993年起於香港開設分店。


Gianduja Mousse---它主要由Sacher朱古力蛋糕、榛子醬朱古力慕思(Gianduja Mousse)、榛子醬朱古力忌廉(Gianduja Cream)和紅桑子組成，外圍附有朱古力碎粒。海綿蛋糕軟綿，慕思和忌廉幼滑Creamy，朱古力味和榛子味相當濃郁，紅桑子酸甜多汁，整體甜味頗重。

女友的生日，當然要買蛋糕跟它慶祝。

這個Tiramisu，也是例牌三層的，面頭是厚厚的可可粉，中間有香甜幼滑的芝士層，芝士味挺突出的，而餅底是被咖啡酒浸得淋淋的手指餅，濕度夠，不會太乾，一口吃下，很香很好吃，咖啡酒的香味，配合香滑的芝士，然後再隱滲一點可可的味道，整體的感覺是妙極的，非常對版。

這個一磅裝的Tiramisu，若要兩個人吃光它，也真的會很飽呢，所以最後，也是剩下一半留待明天吃早餐。

之前我曾說過COVA既CAKE唔好食, 不過今天佢既黑森林旦糕令我改觀.

1.cake上朱古力cream/cake的周邊 部份:真的有好濃既朱古力味, 而且係唔會太甜
2. fresh cream白色部份: 有一種好香既cream味.
3. cherry係意大利貨, 朋友說好食, 我就食唔出有咩唔同, 不過就真係幾大粒.
4. cake 內的cherry有酒香及都真係啖啖都有cherry肉真係好好食. 最緊要唔多cream及唔加jello向入面.

店經理說,cova只會在每年既6-8月才有黑森林旦糕提供, 所以中意食黑森林旦糕既朋友可以買來試試 (price : hkd330/1lb <-比其他個d cake係貴小小, 不過都真係值架).

I dun have a photo for the pretty cake as I was busy working on a project while a lovely colleague has bought some refreshments from Cova. I chose the lemon chiffon cake and it worked on me!

Hope I can describe how the cake looked ... It was a squared layered chiffon cake with several layers, topped with few dry lemon pieces.

And going back to the piece, the chiffon was soft and spongy, as well as having a clear layering of chiffon cake and cream. The lemon flavor was not too strong *from the point of view of big lemon fan, me* and the lemon essence was just in my every bite. For sure, the topped lemon decoration was edible and the sour flavor came together. I think it was more suitable for soft lemon fans instead. Yet the refreshing lemon slice did cheer me up.

Actually I had the mango dome cake from my birthday which was as well in chiffon cake. Maybe the lemon is a stronger flavor to match against the creamy sponge compare to mango.

Anywaz, I would try on the coffee soon as the strong aroma keeps around the area ...

呵呵，好同事代買 Cova 的雪糕跟咖啡做午後甜品！

Gelato 真係好味到飛起！

早知要一球啦，因為二球份量對一個人黎講實在太太多了！ 滿足過頭了！

見前人讚開心果好味，我也要了開心果味，可惜無 peach 味，所以選了朱古力。

朱古力味道係特特特濃個種！

開心果味，仲好味，直情好似開心果翻生！開心果味 gelato 既味道仲濃過真係食開心果！

事實上 $48 / 二球 的價錢以呢個份量同水準，我覺得 cova 係抵過 haagen dazs 囉。

因為好開心咁食完雪糕既關係，連帶佢既 skim milk latte 都覺得好香滑 ，$25 佢既 size 等於一般大家樂的奶菜杯咁上下，一定無 star bucks 個 d 咁大杯，不過勝在好味過 star bucks。

繼續滿足。

不過攪到佢有兩個 packing 好似有 d 唔環保添

訂了個Mango蛋糕，整個order過程服務員都十分友善。
朋友超中意呢款蛋糕，但我就覺得味道有點似沙利蛋糕。
蛋糕內的Mango蓉還有點酸味，可能而家0吾系Mango季吧
4個人分量 $135@

在附近辦點事，完事立即過來吃雪糕。

要rapsberry，酸酸甜甜一貫的開胃引人，冇得頂!!

姐姐的service亦好，雖然是公事式笑容，但本著好過冇的心態，還是收貨。

即使價錢偏高，也從沒放棄過cova這心頭好。

Rushed for exchanging the pants bought on Sunday, 'cos the zipper wasnt function properly. So didnt have time to have proper lunch. Too bad. So while hurrily returning to office, had an idea of buying some butter cake for eating in office as lunch. So bought two pieces of butter cake. One was with walnut and another one, when I bought it, i thought it was banana cake, but after eating it. Dont know what it was. Both were not as tasty as I thought. The one made by Agnes b was better. Too bad. Though the price was relatively cheaper for just $8 a piece. But i thought i wont try it again. Save some quota for the Agnes b ones.

Really cant resist the temptation. Must have its gelato! Tried gelato in Italy, then love it immediately. Also saw the Cova head shop in Milan in Italy. Oh it looks the same as the shops in HK.

I tried its hazelnut and passionfruit favours this time. The hazelnut was really nice. It was smooth and rich favour. Really a must try for hazelnut lovers. For passionfruit, it was a bit sour (maybe cos just had some sweeties (ie the hazelnut) so making me feeling sour. Anyway, both were good and in good quality.

經過呢度見到呢個 mango tart,　好靚，所以買個黎試下啦．Okay 喎，個tart 底ｄ牛油味幾濃，幾香脆．上面有點點custard, 同埋粒粒靚芒果球，very nice, 芒果球香甜，美味，真係so good!

呢度ｄcoffee 都好多人買的．下次試埋先!

昨日要買蛋糕同男友慶祝生日, 本打算去龍島買個細細的朱古力蛋糕, 我記得兩年前買過一個一磅的蛋糕大約$80, 但昨天去到時, 發現要成$138一個, 仲要唔多吸引, 所以立即走去太子大廈cova買好過。

去到有4-5個一磅蛋糕選擇, 小姐話呢0的係最受歡迎的選擇, 正當我猶豫緊要生果蛋糕定tiramisu時, 小姐建議我選擇生果蛋糕, 因為個樣吸引0的。

到食的時候, 唔...真係好好味呢, 唔係太漏, 好好味。

下次有人生日時, 等我走去再買先

開心果...
YOGURT...
白桃...
紅莓...
熱情果...
榛子...
今次試了TIRAMISU

2個字:暈低!!
真係好好味呀
好味程度直逼開心果
酒香醇又不失芝味
好.正.
從來不會吃TIRAMISU味雪糕的...

又食雪糕，我最鍾意冬天食雪糕，特別係ＧＡＬＥＴＯ，因為冇咁易溶可以食耐Ｄ！
行過呢度，忍唔住買杯過下口癮，因為雪糕我只係食ＨＡＡＧＥＮ　ＤＡＺＳ／ＣＯＶＡ，難得經過梗係要杯啦！
又係要ＰＡＳＳＩＯＮ　ＦＲＵＩＴ，我最鍾意既味，一樣咁軟咁香咁滑，ＶＥＲＹ　ＧＯＯＤ！
５０蚊埋單都抵

熱情果雪芭:
非常極之好味
非試不可!

忌廉朱古力(strac....xxx):
又係一定要試
黑朱古力碎好正...........>3<

老實說這裡的GELATO真是頂級的
不但香軟細滑,而且份量夠多,感覺很抵
可惜服務差到無輪
完全估唔到吧....COVA wor!!
但係一而再再而三
西餅及雪糕負責姐姐仔的服務態度真是令我很失望
其實只是她一個而已
其他WAITERS都很有禮貌的
但這位姐姐每次都很趕忙似的
不論是有沒有其他客
就算是有也不應對任何客人好像澳洲牛奶公司的態度和速度吧!
仲要徒手極速"執"D toppings之後收$$
omg................這是cova嗎????!
還是我看錯店名???????!

吃你一杯雪糕$48
對,是比起你的座上客CHEAP
但過門都是客lor
如果唔係d雪糕咁好食
我真的不會再光顧
唉..........

這間COVA的gelato有很多口味呢!!
2人要了2球$48
白桃sorbet + 開心果
還加了手指餅和開心果
cova真係堪稱最飽的gelato之選
好大球,一d都唔姑寒!!!
而且味道超正
白桃sorbet都可以做到咁滑
好厲害!!
開心果真係食左會返生呀....
無論口感或味道都贏人成條街!

cova的雪糕已在我心中已穩佔一席位喇
