One will be surprised that at a price of $1.80, there is the existence of a smooth chocolate mousse. Although it is a little sweet but I do find it nice. With alternating layers of chocolate mousse and the texture of the cake similar to Roulade from BakerZin, it is a pleasant treat. Similar to Roulade, the cake has a generally nutty texture which I assumed it to be similar to a génoise cake but because of the light chocolate mousse, the entire texture is better than Roulade. At least it is generally not a hard cake. Dusted with cocoa powder, the top layer is actually a thin layer of dark chocolate mousse.
However, Yuan don't think likewise and as predicted, he didn't enjoy this cake. His comments were
"Well the mousse is nice, i think the layer of cake leave much to be desired. I find that the layer of cake is pretty dry and is close to the texture of bread. Maybe if you enjoy the Roulade from Bakerzin, you may enjoy this cake. But i would prefer wet and soft sponge with chocolate mousse."

12 April 2010: After a comment from the cbox, I called up Amande (9105 8208) and realized both Tangs & Toa Payoh outlets have closed but they are going to set up a store at Carrefour, Plaza Singapura.
