Chillin' at Brunetti City Square, Melbourne

Our second & last night in Melbourne, and after a long drive to the Great Ocean Road we've decided to do the dessert hunting around our hotel in Melbourne CBD. We head down to Brunetti City Square on 214 Flinders Lane, famous for its wide selection of cakes, chocolates, crepes, and gelatos to name a few. It was a warm night and we enjoyed sitting outside...chilling.

Some of the cakes that I managed to capture, unfortunately unable to try...

Strawberry & Ricotta Cheesecake

(A baked ricotta and strawberry cheese cake with a layer of chocolate sponge)

Mud Cake

(A decadent moist chocolate cake with marsala liqueur, ground almond meal and topped with a rich chocolate ganache)

Captivated by its beauty, I failed to note down the name of the cake

Torta

(Vanilla sponge, strega liqueur, one layer of chocolate custard and one layer of vanilla custard)

Black Forest

(Chocolate sponge, kirsch liqueur, blackcurrant jam, fresh chocolate cream and cherries)

After seeing all the cakes, I settled with the Tiramisu $5.40. The serving was small and to be honest it tasted like any other tiramisu, nothing out of the ordinary. I was hoping that Brunetti serves its own signature style tiramisu.

However, my disappointment was lifted by the tasty Rum Baba Mignon. Sponge fingers soaked in rum and apricot, the rum was definitely a kick for this petit size cake.
