Editor’s Note

Last updated 30 May 2026

Our take: Cafe Lilac by Whisking Bakes stands out for its dedication to taro-based desserts and drinks, making it a niche but popular spot.

Reviewers consistently praise the Taro Latte and the Taromisu, with the latter described as melting in the mouth.

The Earl Grey Cheesecake and taro chiffon are also noted as good choices, though some find the taro flavour in the cheesecake to be overpowered by the cheese.

The cafe offers a quiet atmosphere, making it suitable for a relaxed 'me' time or for getting work done during off-peak hours.

While the taro desserts are a clear highlight, the savoury options like kimchi fried rice and taro toast are mentioned as being 'quite pricey' and perhaps not the primary draw.

We'd recommend focusing on their specialty taro items, particularly the Taromisu and Taro Latte (the non-coffee version is often preferred).

Be aware that popular items like the Taromisu can sell out, especially during busier periods.

Overall, it's a solid choice for taro enthusiasts looking for a peaceful cafe experience.
