These crispy shell egg custard filled Spring Tarts caught my eyes when I was at Metrotown. These thin puffy shell tarts from Castella are relatively new. Their appearance is very appealing. The shell was crispy on the edges and all dente elsewhere. Every bite was very interesting. You get the crispiness, the al dente and the softness from the egg custard.
The egg custard was very eggy and smooth which I appreciate. Sometimes you have the egg custard that was overpowered by sugar which you can't taste the egg at all. The sweetness was good even though it's a tad too sweet for my personal preference. However, it's totally acceptable. It tastes best when it is fresh or warm. I had 2 in one day. Haha...
The girl who took my order had a nice smile and was very friendly. The store is a corner unit right across Superstore inside the mall. Easy to locate. They have their all-time famous cheese tarts which I also liked. read more
