Have you ever experienced being caught off guard by something arrestingly beautiful that you do not want to let it go? That is exactly what I have experienced when I saw Viennese Mocha Torte, a new addition to Conti’s Pastry Shop’s line of satisfyingly delectable cakes.
I was dead set on getting a box of Turtle Pie at Conti's after hearing raves about it. After all, I have truly liked their Infamous Mango Bravo and Mango Cream Cake, so I said, why not try the pie. Then while browsing through the choices of cakes available, this intricately beautiful creation provocatively staring back at me while situated at the corner of the refrigerator loaded with other delectable cakes caught my sight and I was never able to take my eyes off it.
It is delicately beautiful I want to display it in our living room if only it wouldn't melt! It is very enticing to the senses you would feel that it is too beautiful to eat. Indeed it was love at first sight; naturally, I have to buy it too.
This beauty is made up of layers of rich chocolate cake, meringue, mocha butter cream mousse, and thinly chopped almonds.
If you are a mocha lover, then this cake is for you. The mocha butter cream dominates the entire flavor of the cake but the richness of the chocolate cake gives balance to it. The crunchiness of the meringue and almonds adds texture to the cake it would make you realize that it is indeed something different.
If you are a chocolate cake lover like I am, expect that it wouldn't give you the same satisfaction you get from a slice of decadent super moist chocolate cake on your favorite pastry chop, because Viennese Mocha Torte screams mocha! in your face there isn’t a chance that you would ever forget that you are eating a Mocha flavored cake. Well, it wouldn't be called its name for nothing right?
All in all, I can still say that it is worth its price of 450php for the mini and 950php for the mile high one. Oh, did I mention that it is as tall as Mango Bravo? Yes, it is.
So, this delectably beautiful cake that captures my heart at first sight is truly beautiful and delicious on it's own right. But I guess love at first sight is still different from your one true love (read:chocolate cake). I never regretted having a palatable affair with Viennese Mocha Torte, but life is too short so I guess I’ll be on my way to my next quest, Turtle Pie!
