Delicious Pastries Treats @ Croisserie Artisan Bakery, Plaza Damansara

Hola! If you know me in person, I am never a pastry lover. Well, I am not, until I was introduced to Croisserie. I visited Croisserie for a brunch date with my foodie friends recently. This bakery is highly recommended by one of my friends who love to get his pastries craving fixed here. Ok.... if he approved, then it's got to be good. :D The pastries are freshly baked daily by Chef Ken Jay using top quality and freshest ingredients and here are some of my personal favourite.

Salmon & Spinach Quiche RM13.00
This is the latest offering by Croisserie. Doesn't it look incredible? It is mouth-watering delicious too. Must try!
 

Beef Bacon & Mushroom Quiche RM11.00
For beef lovers, try the savoury delights beef bacon with generous mushroom.
 

German Pudding Tart RM4.00
Oh my... this is not only looking good, but taste incredibly good too. And no, it's not an egg tart! Simply adore the smooth and creamy custard in a totally perfect tart crust.

Canele 
Frankly, it was my first time trying Canele. It has a lovely crust and tasted slighty burn while the inner remain soft. Quite a memorable taste.

Signature French Croissant RM3.50
Never been a fan of croissant, till I tasted Croisserie's croissant. The croissant here is made of top quality Japanese flour and French butter.

The special 16 layers croissant is all fluffy, flaky and crispy with French buttery aroma. This is also Croisserie best-selling signature product.

Croissant aux Amandes RM5.50
For nutty lover, you can try this version of croissant coated with almond cream and covered with a layer of toasted almonds.

Cinnamon Raisin Puff RM4.50 
If you noticed, Croisserie's pastries are much darker in colour. They are definitely not burnt, in fact Chef Ken Jay wish to produce a much crispier texture and bring out the flavours of the pastries.

Oyaki Pan RM2.80

Plain Bagel RM3.50

Apple Danish RM5.50

The scrumptious fillings are homemade from fresh Granny Smith apples, for the extra tartness and tucked into a flaky buttery crust.

Oyaki Pan RM2.80

Tarte au Citron RM12
Crumbly pastry and deliciously zingy lemon combine to make the perfect tarte au citron.

We are also treating ourselves to a selection of Christmas special only available during the festive seasons. 

The Triple Noel Cake RM130

Ohh... Chocolate lovers would love the multi-layers of hazelnut dacquoise, chocolate florentine, chocolate ganache and chocolate mousse.

Santa Berrylicious Cake RM140

Wow.... look at the beautiful layering. The multi layers of sourish, sweet flavours consisting of biscuit joconde, raspberry mousse, lychee mousse & raspberry compote, refreshing with lychees goodness.

Croisserie Signature Stollen RM100

The fruit bread containing candied citrus, berries, fruits shimmered in orange & lemon juice, homemade marzipan, assorted nuts and bathed in a luxurious butter and drizzled with a coating of Trehalose. Truly a winner. Don't forget to grab  Croisserie's Stollen for your Christmas celebration this year. I bet your guests would be amazed!

So I Think I Can Groom with Petsmore @ Petsmore SS2 PJ

So I think I can groom..... Yes, I am proud to said so! Hehehe.... I've attended Petsmore 'So You Think You Can Groom' workshop held at Petsmore's SS2 PJ outlet recently. And I've gained great knowledge on basic grooming from the workshop besides having a good bonding time with my fur kid 'Toto'. Yeah... I have a dog and her name is ToTo! :D Now I could trim Toto's nails and clean her ears without worries of hurting her.

The COO of Petsmore Mr Sean Saw also introduced Furfurry Academy. The academy purpose is to nurture and educate new talent in the grooming field. To be a great pet owner, it takes a lot of patience, passion and knowledge. Some pet owners might think it is easy to snip away or simply shaving off the pet's fur but wrong technique could actually lead to disastrous result.

Petsmore Master Groomer also shared some easy tips to ensure our pet will be well-groomed at home. In the short workshop we learned to understand our pets, basic food and nutrition and a complete head-to-toe grooming training in just one hour. We also go home with a certificate to acknowledge our participation. Yay!

Look.... even a dog can dolled-up! Check our her manicure or is it pedicure? :p

Regular groomed pets is important as it not only helps owner to be aware of the changes in the pet's body that may require veterinary attention, it's also important for their health and well being. 

Living up to its new tagline, "Where Love Begins" Petsmore believes that every living being deserves to be loved and what better way to show your sincere  love to furry friends than to properly care for their well-being.
