There was a massive hype about Hopetoun for the past year and a bit but I think the craze has died down this year when Asian/Taiwanese dessert parlours invaded the streets of Melbourne. Anyhow, a couple of friends and I rocked up at Hopetoun hoping to taste delicious cakes and tarts but I think we left pretty disappointed because the quality of their desserts didn't match their looks. No doubt Hopetoun's desserts looked fantastic with all the vibrant colours especially accompanied by colourful freshly cut fruits but unfortunately their Black Forest cake was crumbly and the layers of their Vanilla Slice were tough as rock - we couldn't even cut it neatly and it was just so messy. However, their Lemington which looked beautiful also tasted pretty good.
