Located opposite redhill mrt station under a HDB flat was this Muslim owned bakery shop selling one of the most beautiful lemon meringue tart I ever seen.
Popped by over during lunchtime and grabbed some cakes. There was some outdoor seating available and they also served coffee and other drinks.
I wana get the lemon meringue tart $7 and their signature Paris-Brest $8.50. Their chocolate salted caramel and signature carrot cake looks pretty tempting.....haha....maybe next time.
Lemon meringue tarts are my favorite! Looks too pretty to be eaten.
Besides the look, the taste is also v important. Overall, I feel that the crust is good in the sense that it’s not too soft. I don’t like soft or thin soggy crust. Even after leaving in the fridge overnight, the tart crust itself is still cookie hard. As for the lemon filling, it’s good with the strong lemon citrusy taste but will be better if the texture can be softer and smoother instead of this stiff jelly-like texture. The meringue is perfect, but it seemed to slide off the lemon filling when I cut into it. In fact, the entire rose meringue can be lifted off the tart as it does not seem to gel well with the jelly-like lemon filling. Oh well, I hope they can improve it further. Anyway, for the price of $7, it’s pretty decent.
Nevertheless, the quest for the perfect lemon meringue tart continues.....
