This is not my first visit to Sevva but I was too full to try the infamous Sevva cakes last time so I visited Sevva with a group of friends (4 peeps) on a Saturday afternoon to try out the long-awaited Marie Antoinette Crave which was inspired by the Queen's beautiful fluffy hair. Seriously, the cake looks SO cute that I think it defines happiness!To be honest, the happiness stems more from the look of the cake than its taste. The cake's look does have a "wow" effect to it.

This is not my first visit to Sevva but I was too full to try the infamous Sevva cakes last time so I visited Sevva with a group of friends (4 peeps) on a Saturday afternoon to try out the long-awaited Marie Antoinette Crave which was inspired by the Queen's beautiful fluffy hair. Seriously, the cake looks SO cute that I think it defines happiness!To be honest, the happiness stems more from the look of the cake than its taste. The cake's look does have a "wow" effect to it. But to be fair, the flavour is not bad though not as amazing as its look. The cake itself is a sponge cake in pistachio flavour with whipped cream and raspberries. The topping is cotton candy and its body is decorated with macarons. The cake is alright. Quite fluffy and the texture is almost like chiffon cake. The cream tastes fresh and the pistachio flavour matches well with slightly sour raspberries which further improves the sense of freshness of the cake. It leaves a refreshing impression. One of the downsides is that the macarons are too chewy and moist although they look so pretty on the cake! Maybe it's because they are stuck onto the cream. The glittery decor made of sweets are too stiff as well. But then I think you're not meant to actually "consume" them. They are afterall just decorations.
Aside from the cake, I like Sevva's green tea latte. It's not included in any sets so I ordered it on an a la carte basis. I like the richness of both the green tea flavour and the milk. It instantly warms me up. It's a bit on the sweet side but I have a sweet tooth so I don't really care. But I do think it would go better with something savoury since the sweetness can then be balanced out.The staff were nice and they helped us take many pictures. Even offered to help us remove the cotton candy from the cake and cut it into four slices for us. We did hilarious things like tearing off the cotton candy, shaping the pieces into "moustaches" and taking pictures "wearing" them but the staff did not actually show us any signs of discrimination lol We were impressed! We actually invited the staff to sit down on the sofa opposite to us so he could take a group picture for us comfortably but he insisted on standing and bending over for the picture. We suspected he might have done this out of politeness (not wanting to sit with us since we were customers)? Anyways, the staff were helpful and we're pleased. =)
Needless to say, the environment at Sevva is posh but cozy. My worn-out friends who've been working so hard nearly fell asleep on the sofas. It's great for a girls' day/night out. I think it's pricey but the tea was really enjoyable as a whole. We love it there and will re-visit this place for sure!
