I can't believe I forgot this, considering I love chef Kiko but anyway better late than never right? Our cake tasting happened June 16, 2013 (I know, I know that long) right after our mini-EB/lunch with some w@wie friends (first time to meet each other) at Contis Serendra. Me and Nana went to Chef's house or shall I say Chef waited for us in 7-11 15th avenue (because we got lost, I have history of getting lost).
Moving on to cake tasting, Chef prepared 3 cupcakes for us Dark Chocolate, Red Velvet and Vanilla. I know you wanted pics but sorry I got too excited that I was not able to take picture of the yummy cupcakes but don't worry I will have another cake tasting and will update this post and upload the pictures.
Verdict:
Vanilla: I never considered this as a cupcake flavor on my wedding because this is too simple and plain for me though I love vanilla. It's like am I getting my money's worth for a simple flavor? my questions was answered on my first bite of this cupcake and the answer is... this is LOVE (^_^) omg! yummy.. the simplicity of this flavor plus the yummy butter-cream icing yum! I am going to get this flavor for those that don't like chocolate (are there?). Well me! me! I love this.
Dark Chocolate: this is my weakness, I can be biased but this did not fail me. the cake is moist and I love the bitter-sweet taste. I enjoyed this too and I love love this. If only I can ask for another one.
Red Velvet: This may not be the best red velvet that I tasted but hey! this is also yummy! maybe because this has butter-cream icing and not the usual cream cheese but chef said that the icing can be replaced with cream cheese at no extra charge *sweet* and can even put nuts without extra charge also *extra sweet*
Overall, Chef Kiko's cakes are yummy cakes for a reasonable price. I really enjoyed our cake tasting. The cakes are moist and intact (not the airy/spongy type). you are getting value for money (^_^)
Since I am already booked with chef Kiko, we discussed our package and what I love is that chef suggested ways on how to save, he made me realize that i do not need an all edible 5-layer cake, It can be 5-layer bottom edible only and the rest of the layers can can be converted into mini cakes and cupcakes for souvenir at the same price. Good right? I am now considering his suggestion.
Btw, this is the first time I met chef after months of exchanging emials and I can say that he is so kind and sweet (^_^) we already clicked with each other. I love chef kiko to bits promise. More than a supplier, he is really like a friend to me. He is the type of person that will not take advantage of you, and this is the reason why he is becoming popular.
Great yummy cakes + lovable personality = LOVE. I am happy that I made the right choice of booking chef even without cake tasting.
Since I failed to taste the most loved Banana Walnut so I ordered it because Nana loves anything "banana-ish"

Banana Walnut with Dark Chocolate Icing
sorry for the crappy pic.. It didn't do justice I know
This is 5inches tall and I think 8 inches, with the weight you will know that the cake is intact. (the cake is really heavy).
Verdict: We love this (^_^), the banana cake complements well with the dark chocolate and what I love is you can find lots of walnuts (value for money). Not that sweet. the sweetness cames from the icing only. yummy!
I also got Scones
Verdict: This is Dark Chocolate and Pistachio scones, Chef said that I heat this first and put jam/butter but the lazy me did not do that I just ate this as is and it is yummy so imagine what more if I do what chef told me to do right?
I love everything, the cakes and the chef. I am one happy bride (^_^). I know I am in good hands come my wedding day.
