Melaleuca cake

Mille Crepes

Speaking of Lady M, Dessert Control can think of his famous Mille Crepes (Mille Crepes). Mille Feuille means "leaf on one another" in French. "Cake" as its name suggests. Seeing this layer of cakes that are as thin as cicada wings are superimposed on top of each other, it seems to be saying, "You, you, you, why don't you?" Eat me!

Mille Crepes layer cake is composed of French crepes and cream. Its process seems to be very simple. It is so simple that many ingenious foodies have been DIY at home. A soft crepe is fried in a frying pan, the fresh cream is laid flat on the cake, and then another crepe is covered. This is repeated 20 times, and a thousand-layer cake is born.

However, the taste of Lady M Thousand Layer Cake is better than home made, even better than any cake shop. Green tea mille Crepes ($ 8.5 / Slice) with "pillars", velvet-like cream melts into the mouth, thin and light crepes are layered clearly, and there are some crunchy on the outside. People think of leisurely and quiet Japanese life.

Signature Mille Crepes ($8 / Slice) is also very popular.The top layer of the pancake has a shallow layer of caramel, which is slightly burnt, and the sweetness is just right. You will not feel greasy after eating several pieces in a row.

Chocolate Mille Crepes ($8.5 / Slice) is the first time I have eaten it, and it is also seasonal. It is only available until the end of April. If you want to eat it after April, you have to make a reservation one week in advance. (Look at this layer, see the color, see the appearance, can you wait until the end of April?)

There is a bit of chocolate bitterness in the sweetness, which is exactly what I do not like the sweet star. Silky chocolates and crispy pancakes slowly unfold in the mouth, ah, fortunately! blessing!

Checkerboard cake

Checkers

Checkerboard Cake (Checkers, $ 8 / Slice)! My fellow friends are talking about this cake all the way. It is a black-and-white cake that looks like a chess board. The light yellow squares are vanilla-flavored cakes, and the black ones are chocolate-flavored. The side level is so clear, at first glance it is cut to lol.

The outside of the cake was surrounded by thick chocolate sauce, which made people unable to pick up the fork and cut a piece into the mouth immediately, um ~ taste buds exploded.

Green Tea Checker ($8 / Slice) is also very popular!Needless to say, the strong tea flavor, the cake is smooth, soft and fluffy, it is my love!This is also seasonal, and it is only available in the store until April.

Cheese / Sponge / Chestnut Cake

Unexpectedly, the very ordinary cheesecake (Gateau Fromage, $7.5 / Slice) is also unexpectedly brilliant. The cheese is rich and the cake is soft, not sweet or greasy, but refreshing and delicious. Personally think it is better than all kinds of super sweet. cheesecake!

The sponge cake (Mimosa, $8 / Slice) seems ordinary!Before I tasted it, I murmured in my heart, sincerely, when did the tall Lady M start making such "simple" cakes... I didn't expect it to be so delicious after a spoonful of it!

In addition to the super-high fluffy feel of the cake, each layer also has vanilla custard filling, which is pure in taste. If it is not seasonal (same as Chocolate Melaleuca & Matcha Checkerboard Cake, only available until the end of April), I can eat lol for one year.

The chestnut cake (Mont Blanc, $8 / each) caught the attention of the friends, of course, because the only one in the counter is not a slice, but a cup.Small and cute, it has a fresh chestnut on its head. The chestnut-flavored cream swirls into a small tower. It has to be said that the chestnut is full of fragrance and has a taste of autumn. It is XNUMX% of the benefits that chestnut lovers can enjoy in early summer.

Although Chicago's first Lady M was opened in Mitsuwa, a half-hour drive away from the city, it is worthwhile to visit the cakes that make people think about it.

The store is not big, you can't dine in, and there are no plates (all the plates in the picture above are our own...you can eat it in foodcourt if you want to solve the whole cake immediately after buying it), but the high-value takeout carton is Yes, it is appropriate to serve as your insta background~
