CROLO by Swee Heng’s Chinese New Year Buy 2 for S$5 promotion is still on, so I picked up two desserts. The promo is only valid if you choose from the chiller selections which is the second picture below. The prices of the items ranged from cheapest S$2.80 to most expensive at S$3.20.

The first dessert I chose is this Kinder Bueno Croissant (S$3). A perfect blend of crispy croissant and rich, creamy filling with half a stick of Kinder Bueno embedded. The flaky pastry is drizzled with stripes of dark chocolate and filled with heavenly flavours of milk chocolate and hazelnut inside.

The moment I set my eyes on the pile of cubed mango; I knew I just had to choose the Fresh Mango Custard CroRoll (S$3.20). The perfect combination of flaky croissant-roll topped with a smooth custard cream and freshly cut juicy mango chunks. The sweet tropical fruit with hint of acidity and creamy custard cream transports one to a sunny island paradise.

Taking advantage of Crolo By Swee Heng’s CNY two for S$5 promotion, I bought the Apple Crumbles Croroll (usual price S$2.80). This croroll is supposed to feature sweet and tart apple chunks topped with buttery crumbles, creating a delightful blend of flavours and textures. It’s a taste of home in every bite, perfect for those who crave a bit of nostalgia with their sweet treats. Unfortunately, it is too tart and not sweet enough plus there is a bitter aftertaste, maybe a little too much of the cinnamon.

Crunchy Salted Caramel Croffle (usual price S$2.80) featuring a soft butter croffle, salted caramel drip, and crunchy nibs. The crispy pastry comes with a rich and gooey salted caramel cream that is topped with crunchy caramel bits, creating a delightful texture and flavour contrast. It’s the perfect treat for those who love a balance of sweet and salty flavours.

Mum had the rich and buttery Egyptian Butter Bread (S$2.50 or 3 for S$7). Made with a traditional recipe and baked to perfection, this bread is soft, fluffy, and packed with flavour. Each bite is a delightful experience, perfect for breakfast, lunch, or a snack. Best of all, mum said she enjoy eating it.
