It was delicate but nothing that we would miss. Shiny Orange with a colourful chintz-printed plate looks good on IG or Twitter though. And taking selfie and cake pornography are what many Thai customers come here for.
Last but not least, I ordered Raspberry Choc Pie (175 baht). This is highly recommended as the thick sweet chocolate mousse balanced really well with the slight acidity and sourness of half a dozen raspberries.
Cakes are made daily from a common kitchen in Nonthaburi province, north of Bangkok, for all its six café and restaurants under various names.
Strangely enough, Siriwan said more Thais are coming to the café since the coronavirus pandemic broke out and they are doing rather well despite the lack of foreign tourists.
Perhaps the government’s boosting of domestic tourism plays a role. Afterall, the café is well-located to serve those who need more than a crude immediate sugar injection.
“With seven pastry chefs, we make 12,000 slices of cakes daily. Thais are eating more and more cakes. They are more discerning. More adults and people upcountry are eating cakes,” Siriwan said. “Delicious is not enough. It must be eye-catching as well.”
A pink rabbit + Bob open every day from 9am to 8pm. It is located at 378 Maharaj Road. Call 062-639-8880 for details. This review is unsponsored and we paid for the cakes ourselves.
