I remember Cova stepping up their game and establishing their dominance here in Hong Kong. They opened up this beautiful cafe on the top floor of the Pacific Place and then also added this beautiful cake shop next door. Most people go for lunch or tea and have a piece of cake after so everyone knows the quality and caliber of the desserts they produce.
Etched with the finest Italian baking and smothered with the most delicious cream you have ever tasted, their cakes will not disappoint. I will share with you some of my favorites: the black forest cake with fresh cherries is always going to be a winner as the cream, chocolate and cherries are just to die for. The mango cake is always divine between the sweet fruity taste of the mango and the delicious cream on the outside. The chestnut cake is also an instant favorite if anyone were to try it with its smooth chestnut paste lining the bottom of this buttery cake. Oh, yes, and did I mention the awesome cream on top?
They also have a great selection of chocolates and you can always order for a special occasion. They will write whatever you need on a piece of chocolate to put on top. For those that are looking for something smaller, try their smaller tartlet versions of the larger cakes. MMMMM.
You will always have friends if you buy them a cake from Covas! read more
