Candy Cake

After a satisfying dinner at a nearby restaurant, my wife and I decided to scope out the neighborhood for dessert. A short walk took us past this brightly lit establishment with a window display of mouthwatering cakes and other beautifully decorated offerings, any single one of which was sufficient inducement to walk in and indulge. The very pleasant English speaking owner bid us welcome and kindly explained the details of his creations and the taste expectations we could enjoy with each. Being a lover of chocolate pudding, and having noted that various puddings are a Turkish tradition, I opted for one of the very large bowls and sat down to thoroughly enjoy a delicious, rich and creamy culinary creation laced with ground pistachios. Wow!
My wife opted for the rice pudding which I tasted and found to be exquisite as well. This establishment is small and clean and caters primarily to «take out», but there is a small seating area. A small selection of drinks and beverages is available from a self serve refrigerator. With so many larger shops in the area offering similar desserts, Candy Cake is a rare gem and a real «find». All in all, the service and tastes were well worth going out of the way for. I’ll be back and SOON. By the way, free WIFI is also offered.

The best chocolate pudding ever! A huge serving, so rich and fudgy and garnished with chopped pistachios. We also had delicious rice pudding and a small finger éclair. The owner served us and told us that personally makes the confections.
