A La Mousse - Mango and Tangerine - Desserts Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I had occasion to try four things from A La Mousse - Tangerine cheesecake Strawberry cream cake Double chocolate cake Caramel chocolate cake Everything was tasty, but I found the citrus items to be especially fluffy and light on flavor. I usually like my desserts to have more of a bang, but if you're into lightly sweet things that aren't too heavy, the non-chocolate items are for you. The two chocolate cakes I tried were delicious. Very chocolately, great textures. Overall I'm glad I tried A La Mousse but probably won't be going tout of my way to return in the future. read more

This A La Mousse location has a bit more room to sit than the other one in the city. Same great dessert and drink selection, and friendly staff. Had the Hokkaido cheesecake and it was perfectly fluffy and sweet without being overpowering. Not as cute or aesthetic as most of the other desserts, but still just as tasty! Definitely can't go wrong with any of the choices. Thanks read more

A WONDERFUL stop for coffee and sweets! The staff here are incredibly friendly. The store is clean. There is plenty of seating. They have a great variety of tea, coffee, and treats. I came in for a coffee and almost walked out with the entire case of desserts. They were all so cute! I ended up using my will power and getting an iced hazelnut latte with oat milk and told myself I'd come back for the ube crepe cake another time. Let me tell you, this coffee was perfect. It wasn't too sweet. The hazelnut flavor was just enough to enhance the coffee flavor. The coffee flavor wasn't bitter or burnt tasting. It was perfect! I also saw a flyer that they do an afternoon tea set that includes a pot of tea, a dessert, and possibly something else? I'm definitely coming back to try that too! read more

Cute spot that was recommended to me. There's a bunch of teas and so many desserts! The desserts are very cute and there is an air of whimsy about the place.

Ashamed to admit that A La Mousse is my most frequented Door Dash order! But their desserts and so clutch, and satisfy your sweet craving without sending you over the edge. The ingredients are fresh, feel minimally processed and are relatively affordable, considering the times. I've visited the retail store once before and the staff was friendly, and help you decide what to order based on your preferences. It's the perfect after dinner, night cap vibes. read more

A La Mousse - Mango Crepe Cake - Desserts Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I was fortunate enough to be very close to this location, and loved to come here for sweets. The staff are extremely friendly, and the store is very clean and cute. They have a ton of desserts that can probably satisfy and craving, and I've never gotten anything from here that wasn't absolutely great! The ingredients feel fresh and it feels that each dessert is made with great care. I basically loved all the cakes I have tried, and cannot pick a favorite. It's also a great place to get a good surprise dessert or cake as well given they are all very aesthetic. read more

A La Mousse - Brown Bear Chocolate - Desserts Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

I've been to A La Mousse many times and have only had amazing experiences here. The ambiance is relaxed but they have very nice offerings for desserts. The service is always kind and accommodating. This most recent visit we tried the Tea-Ramisu (Matcha Tiramisu) with salted caramel ice cream and the Earl Gray Cyclone. Both were amazing. The matcha tiramisu was really light and I love Earl Gray tea so I always enjoy getting the Earl Gray Cyclone. Overall, amazing dessert spot and I always try to stop by when I'm in the area. read more

My beautiful birthday day did not disappoint, and it was a huge hit at my party due to the attention to detail and delicious taste! I ordered the cake 7 days before the party, and the staff was so attentive and patient as I bought slices to taste and discussed options with them. I enjoyed the strawberry filling, and the fondant of the bow was so delicious too. The service was excellent of the day of the party as well, thank you to the staff for being flexible with my timing to pick up. I will definitely be ordering cakes for my occasions in the future, and stopping by for casual desserts as well. the bakery is well lit, has wifi, has bar-like and table seating, and the creations are beautiful! read more

Matcha peach latte with oat milk was great, especially if you want something different from a regular matcha latte. It has the deep earthy matcha flavor yet also feels lighter and sweeter. Good introduction for those who may be new to/are not ready for the earthy depth of matcha. Chocolate matcha cake is also fantastic--it is rich and sweet but is not as heavy and too sweet like American desserts. read more

Ordered two desserts and they were fantastic. They were fresh and flavorful. We did have them delivered via DoorDash to a hotel.

Yooooooo! The dessert at this place are the real deal. It was my birthday so we made a special trip to A La Mousse and we're not disappointed. First-I appreciate they were open late so we got to experience this treat. The options were plentiful, involved true artistry, and had such a flavor variety. I chose the flourless chocolate plus mousse cake slice and it was so rich and decadent. My daughter chose the bear mousse and the hardest part was eating such a cute confection. You can't go wrong visiting this amazing place-oh and get a cappuccino-it was the perfect pairing. read more

Cute cafe serves desserts best for your IG. I personally enjoy dessert is not too sweet and this place is up to my alley. Their famous matcha crepe cake is too light.

Adorable little spot with a great selection of delicious desserts. I had the mango millie crepe cake and it it's like nothing I've ever had before - and I will dream about having another slice for years to come! It's 20+ layers of crepe cake with mango & passion fruit mousse. Not overly sweet and the best texture. 11/10! read more

A La Mousse - Mango Mille Crepe Cake - Desserts Near Me - Philadelphia, Pennsylvania

A La Mousse offers some of the most beautiful looking desserts I've ever seen! After walking by on countless occasions, I stopped in for some caffeine and a break from the cold. I was easily able to order my drink and tea for a friend and then grab a seat in the small dining area near the front of the store. It's still early on in 2022, so I'm trying to stick to my healthy eating new year's resolution. I plan to update this review later on once I try some of those incredible looking desserts! There is a $10 card minimum, so I got a drink for myself and a friend to make the minimum. read more

This quaint desert café, located in Graduate Hospital on South Street, offers up some decadent dessert options! I've walked by here several times but finally decided to pop my head inside. I ordered the Double Chocolate for myself, because who doesn't love chocolate. For my husband, I got the Coffee Mousse. The Double Chocolate was packed in a beautiful little box, which should win an award of its own. Both items were quite delicious, but we both agreed that the Double Chocolate was the winner. The prices are slightly higher than what I would expect and the Chocolate Mousse was a rather small piece. But for an occasional splurge and treat, definitely worth it. read more

My friend and I popped in here after dinner Saturday and were hoping to sit down for a bite. They nicely let us know they weren't having anyone sit inside but there were tables outside. Too cold for that so we headed out to my friends office to have the desserts. I got two things. First was the Tiramisu in a pot. Very good, little dessert, mostly cream on the bottom and was very slightly defrosting, but understandable. Again, it was super tasty. But the second thing I got, a slice of the strawberry fresh cream cake, TOP 5 best cake slices I've had in my life. There, I said it. Every bite was perfect. From the cake, to the actually fresh strawberries, the not too sweet cream, it was just so balanced and soft and delicate. I ate half that night and then for breakfast I slowly ate the other half, living in every bite. Please do yourself a favor and try that cake if nothing else. read more

In Philadelphia for a conference. Adventured into Chinatown for dinner and came across this cute dessert place. Nice ambiance...cute and delicious desserts. Highly recommended! Great pricing too read more

The triple chocolate mousse cake is phenomenal! It consists of four layers, each varying in fluffiness, chocolatiness, sweetness, and nuttiness. The very top layer is sweet and very light, and the bottom layer is a thick chocolate torte that has an eggy aftertaste. Each layer individually is okay, but eating all at once is sweet trip. The cake slice was a bit expensive ($8.50) but was gluten-free. Plenty of seating inside, with a clean interior. Service was friendly and gave recommendations. read more

Super cute place offering good drinks and desserts. We picked the little orange dessert because it looked like an orange, but isn't an orange, and we loved it. It was creamy and light, and *not too sweet* (the requirement for a good dessert, by Asian standards ;). The fruity drinks were refreshing and perfect as we rested our feet on their cold marble seats. Good rest stop! read more

There is a an item called Matcha. Basically think of something that gives you a pick me up without the caffeine jitters. This place has 20 layer Matcha cake and more items that you can shake a stick at that are cute AF. Highly recommend you try this spot if you are in the area or their sister property in China town. As always people SYOY!!' read more

I was looking up ice cream places in Chinatown but found this little spot and decided to check it out. The interior is clean and modern and the staff is quick and kind. The menu is easy to read and the treats are laid out with detailed but simple descriptions. I had an iced matcha latte which was so fresh, I wish I got the larger size. I also got the tiger cake! This little cake was almost too cute to eat. It was SO moist, fluffy, had an amazing filling and was just the right size. I am 100% adding this to my "Philly Favs" Yelp List because it truly is a little quick treat and something you cannot miss. read more

Update : owner reached out to me with an extremely responsive email , so I'm taking this as an isolated incident , updating my review and returning the stars I originally granted since this really is a great little place --quality of the product is superb as I had written in my original review. As I said to the owner : . It happens , and I regret I lost my temper a bit too . That kid was just a bit too much for me that day , and wayyyyy out of line . Possibly he is a great worker in another capacity , but front facing customer service ...is not his bag of tricks . Extremely RUDE. I am a regular here and used to dance at the studio next door when It was there all the time . First , let me say your product --is delicious . It's perfect really . Where you go wrong --is the short sighted customer service of the people at the counter . I can only imagine that the management or owner must back this very short sighted " customer policy " --of a $10 minimum . And pressure the employees to enforce it at all costs --to the detriment of your business --even if it loses a sale . While I understand this is there for a reason--to save the money the fees of having credit cards run for a low amount . I get this policy as a general "rule ," the way the kid enforced it --was extremely short sighted --and "stickler " I didn't have cash on this particular day and the counter guy proceeded to get into a snarky condescending "tug of war " with me . It was his TONE that spoke loud and clear and more his bad attitude --than any policy he was enforcing . I get it . But he proceeds to tell me how " if I understand the policy , then why am I asking him " upon which the other girl at the counter says "if you really don't have cash , we can make an exception " (Which is really what the guy should have said in the first place ) At the end of the day it comes down to the tone of what you say --as much as what was coming out of his mouth . He should never have let it go that far with a customer to begin with . I got the sense that he just wanted to be "right " and it became a matter of him having to have the last word , a battle of wills . He could even have nicely said "you could purchase one more item " At the end of the day it was more his tone that caused the situation to escalate more than anything else . Not the policy , rather his horrible attitude from jump . In an effort to enforce a general policy , do you really want to lose long time customer over what amounts a .50 cent charge ? On top of it , he proceeds to get into an argument with me along with the other girl at the counter and started "dismissing " me in a very condescending way . When I reminded them I was a customer and took out my phone to record their bad attitudes, they all of a sudden changed their tune --real quick . The guy who was at the counter actually frustratedly snapped at me that he would be fired --for not enforcing this policy . To which I really hope he was exaggerating because if that's the case , in your effort to enforce a shortsighted policy to begin with --you alienate customers and create an air of hostility in a market climate where businesses are closing left and right . Classic example of shortsighted business"policies " in which small business owners "trip over dollars to pick up nickels . Also , if there is something you don't have on the menu , don't put it on the counter in a prominent place . Worth noting , I still tipped them for their "service ." Also , the strawberry matcha latte --is really nasty . Or maybe they just made it so because they didn't like what I said lol . It was thick and gross and almost impossible to drink from a straw . Feel free to reach out to me . read more

Happy to see there's a third location! I was only aware of the one in Chinatown and the other in Narbeth. Got the A La Mousse which was great. The Lychee Panna Cotta unlocked a memory from my childhood. The Milk Foam Iced Coffee paired well for the hot day but there was way too much ice. I felt like I only got 4 sips. The floor and tables at this location need some cleaning. I didn't feel at ease sitting and dining. The dessert case was clean though which is more important. read more

Delectable deserts are abundant at La Mousse. They filled my desire for rich chocolate. It hit the spot!

Ordered the strawberry cream cheese cake & it was perfect! I don't like cakes because they are usually too sweet. This was not too sweet which was what I wanted. The cake was moist, not dry at all. The cream cheese was light, fluffy & oh so yummy! My mom is the typical Asian senior that is very very picky & she ate a whole piece! I felt like I hit the lottery (^_^) I will definitely be ordering again! I can't wait to try all the other cakes they have available. read more

I found this place while waiting for food at a nearby restaurant. The desserts are beautiful and delicious. It has become my treat while at work. So far I've tried about four of their desserts: the triple chocolate, pink love, mango mousse, and the strawberry cream cheese cake. They are my favorite in that order. So light, fluffy and delicious. The mousses are exceptional but the cake was a bit dry. My coworker tried and raves about the blueberry fresh cream cake so I may have to give it a try. The prices are reasonable for the product received. It's definitely worth the money. The staff could be a bit more inviting. Overall I love their desserts and I will be back. read more
