The cakes at Sketch were truly awesome. I feel I should do them justice by describing each one down to the last crumb.

The Coffee Eclair
The coffee eclair was very delicious. The pastry was delightfully thin. The filling was sweet and really smooth, tasting only slightly of coffee which was good because I don’t like coffee.
One of my favourites.

The Macaroon
This old fashioned pistachio macaroon is definitely in my top three. There was a beautifully thin layer of what tasted like marshmallow and a roased pistachio on the top. I am finding it hard to describe, but It was really very very nice.

The Sketch Opera
This truly was a remarkable cake. It was comprised of layers of sponge, praline, orange and a layer on the top that tasted like chocolate. This caused it to be a real taste sensation.
First, you get the chocolate, which tastes very good to start off with.
Then suddenly, the praline hits you, and the word WOW circles your mind.
Finally, the orange comes in, and you know that flavour itself has really been pushed to the limit. One of my favourites.

The Cheesecake
The cheese was as soft as the coulis.
I don’t have anything else to say on this subject because I didn’t really like the cheesecake.

The Fruit Tart
I very much enjoyed the fruit tart. I thought it was epic. On it there was a blackberry, a raspberry, some flaked almonds, and what really made it for me, a chrystalised redcurrant. The sugar on the redcurrant counteracted its natural sour flavour and caused it to burst when I bit it. It was fabulous. Definitely one of my favourites.

The Lemon Meringue Tower
This cake was so soft I could barely pick it up. It was sweet and tasted nice, but it didn’t really blow my mind or anything.

There was also another cake which I don’t know the name of and find hard to explain. So tough luck to all of you.

The cakes at Sketch contributed widely to the overall experience, and I thoroughly enjoyed them.
