Mike's Pastry, 300 Hanover Street, Boston, MA
Almond and Pignoli Macaroons - very sweet and too mushy for me :(
Napoleon - The best tasting dessert in my box! I still can't figure out how to cut it without dissembling the entire pastry. Oops, I forgot to remove the wrapper before taking the picture. :(
Note on the Napolean: They look so similar to the ones I made in class! Take a look.
Tiramisu - One of my favorite desserts, but I did not like the Mike's version. The best I ever had is still from Bracco. The Mike's version didn't have the texture I wanted. The cake wasn't tender enough to blend with the creamy filling.
Hazelnut Cannoli - I think this was the first cannoli I didn't like. However, I haven't had a cannoli in many years, so maybe I forgot what they are supposed to taste like. My favorite part is always the cheesy, creamy filling, but I didn't like the filling this time. :( It's possible I didn't like the hazelnut flavouring. But should't it still taste like ricotta?
Tiramisu Gelato - Even better than the Napolean was the gelato. The flavour blended so nicely. I was amazed at how good it was.
Note on the pictures: They are a little blurry because I forgot to reset the ISO to a higher setting. They are currently set at ISO 100.
