Delightful visit to this bakery! The mocha cake was heavenly—moist, rich in flavor, and with the perfect balance of coffee and chocolate. Paired with their freshly brewed coffee, it was an absolute treat. Cozy ambiance and friendly staff added to the wonderful experience. A must-try spot for anyone looking for quality cakes and coffee. Highly recommend!

The desserts here are too cute. The presentation when served is wonderful and the desserts are tasty as well. They pay meticulous attention to detail for sure, it’s worth checking out!

This place serves the cutest desserts ??We ordered many things like Lychee Panna Cotta, Polar Bear dessert, Bunny dessert, Tangerine cheesecake dessert, Mango mouse dessert. The one star I deducted is for that tangerine dessert and Lychee panna cotta as it lacked the proper flavour of the main fruit in it. But nonetheless it was not that bad that one cannot have it at all. Big fan of Polar bear dessert plate and the Bunny. Cannot wait to try different other desserts on their menu ? Definitely going back again ?

Incredible desserts!! SUCH good quality and taste. I’ve never had anything here I didn’t like. We got the polar bear and the dragon chocolate crunch roll this time. We both got hot milk tea with foam which was shockingly delicious despite being so simple. The foam is better than the Starbucks cold foam. If you’ve ever been to bakeries/cafes in Korea/japan this is very similar! 10/10 will come back

I wish the store was bigger with more tables. But it’s pretty good. I had to have the lucky cat.

I was informed that the mango crepe was one of their top sellers, but its taste didn't meet my expectations. I was surprised to find that the filling was solely cream, without any mango as anticipated, which left me disappointed. However, I'm interested in returning to sample their strawberry shortcake, as it looked enticing. Overall, the mango crepe didn't win me over, but I'm eager to explore other options on their menu.

I have a huuuuge heart for Asian-style/inspired desserts because they're often cute, unique, and not too sweet! A la mousse hits all of those points which is why I always MUST drop in every time we hit Philadelphia for dinner! It's a very small, very cute and quaint cafe with a decent selection of Asian inspired desserts and flavors like matcha, lychee, ube, mango etc infused with classic flavors as well. Everything I've had there is absolutely delicious. And presentation is always worth the social media post! That being said, the small space and staff size is probably it's only drawback. It's very popular for good reason, especially late in the evening as it's one of the very few dessert places open late (till 12am on some nights!) so the line is very long, the store is very small and the wait times as a result are quite lengthy. I don't often plan on being seated here as it's often crowded during the later hours. However, since I'm obsessed with how delicious everything is I always go in for a to go order. Certainly worth the wait (like 20-30 minutes in line, I'm just inpatient when it comes to sweets) I just wish they had more seating and space. Guess I'll have to keep pouring my money into them so they can upgrade should they choose to one day
