This is my favorite from all the cakes I've tried from Hvala. You can taste
the black sesame at first bite. I can probably eat two portion of this cake since it is just so decadent and not very sweet. It also has a great, moist texture.

Tasty goma cake :) The black sesame was strong and thick in flavour. The only
downside is the cake is a bit dry and crumbly. But I can live with that.
Black sesame taste is not too overpowering. I would like it more if it had
a stronger black sesame taste!
Finally got to try this! I have been waiting for their launch of their vegan
version of goma cake for ages. This cake totally didnt disappoint. Yes, it is a bit drier than the ones containing eggs and dairy but it is legit. The intensity of black sesame was string and even got a thumb of approval for my sister who is a major fan of black sesame.
I think this would pair well with nomvnom's black sesame ice cream :P
I’m lowkey obsessed with anything goma so I was over the moon to find out
that Hvala has a vegan version of their goma cake at their Craig Road store! The flavour was on point, but the cake was a little dry. Still good tho!!!!
For $9, the slice is rather small. However, the goma taste is really profound and
nutty. You can tell that they used a lot of black sesame. The texture of the cake is of the dense type.
Intense black sesame fragrance and flavour. The cream is slightly heavier and feels indulgent. Yet
the sponge cake is very airy. As a black sesame lover this is a must-try!
I don’t opt for black sesame enough in life and everytime I eat anything black
sesame based, I always wonder why it’s not my go to flavour because everything black sesame I’ve tried in life has always been a win 😍 This cake is no exception to that! I bought a variety of desserts including 3 cakes and this one was my favourite of all 3 slices.
Mmmmmm just thinking about the goma makes me happy!
The cake was sweet but nothing overly so, rich in sesame, fluffy, soft, creamy, and spongey, and very well layered.
It’s gorgeous!
If you try any cake from Hvala Craig Road, I truly recommend opting for this one first! It was my housemate @raffymabanag’s favourite of all the cakes too!
