What is it about a bakery display that always makes it so appealing? All the pretty colors?
I'm always a sucker for fruit-laden desserts.
Mmm. Creme brulee.
I ended up with a Parisienne, a fruit-stuffed cream puff for $2.75.
And a green tea tiramisu for $4. The words tiramisu are etched onto a piece of white chocolate. Though it looks heavily dusted with green tea powder, the taste was actually very delicate. I actually prefer moist tiramisu and wished they made green milk tea (you know in lieu of the espresso) to pour over the cake layers. That would then make it perfect.
Hehe, I was very careful in opening my box and photographing the pastries. I ate part of the green tea tiramisu, and wrapped the rest of it along with the cream puff to take home to lil' sis. Really. I don't eat everything I photograph!Who else ate at Italian Tomato?
Elmo of Monster Munching ate a stuffed crepe and a tiramisu.

LOVE ME The Italian Tomato. Especially to cool off my tongue after having it boiled by the soup at Santoka!
ReplyDeleteI still need to make a green tea tiramisu and use up that green tea powder. Lol
ReplyDeleteTigerfish,
ReplyDeleteMy mood comes and goes until I'm caught up again!

Yeah, I wish I had bought the creme brulee too. Haven't had it in forever!
Elmo,
It's so bad b/c it's right there! I can't turn away.
