Longing for another cookie...

I discovered the Cookie Museum thanks to recommendation from Cat. Cousin and I went there once to have dessert and were bowled over by the premium collection of exquisite cookies.

Pamper yourself with a lovely brewed pot of tea and sample the delightful bite-sized cookies as the lovely sales coordinator patiently explains what ingredients go into the scrumptious and yummy cookies.

They have such a wide selection of cookies- from fresh and fruity flavours to flowery ones. They even localised their flavours and offered a piece of heaven for those far away from our tiny red-dot. Flavours like hee bee hiam, nasi lemak and ikan billis, laksa and d24 offer much relief to the palettes of the home-sick.

What really got me sold was the Papaya and lotus seed cookie. The melt-in-your-mouth cookie had a lovely scent of the papaya fruit coupled with the sweetness of the lotus seed nuts. Yumz.. my mouth is watering thinking of this cookie.

Last Sat, we went a sampling again after dinner at Gluttons Bay. Wanting to savour the papaya cookie again, we were all set to part with our $30 over dollars for that 24 pieces of cookies, only to be told that it's no longer available! Some of their flavours are seasonal and only available for a limited period.

So after trying many flavours from Mango/cranberry, lemon/macadamia nut to madeline rose, the 3 of us finally agreed on the lemon/apple and macadamia nut cookie. Ooh..I feel like having another one with my peppermint tea now...

So visit the one and only Cookie Museum at the Esplanade Mall today and be intrigued with the array of cookies on display!
