“absolutely delicious! It has marshmallow melted into the cookie and the difference in texture from the chewy cookie to crunchy candied cornflakes was delightful. We also got a Creme Brulee Danish which was good but the cookie was perfect.”

“I ate the plain croissant there which was incredibly butter and flakey. The stuffed croissant was a little much for me, same with the berries and cream doughnut. Just a little too much filling for my liking but the flavors were delicious. No notes on the others, they were great and I will definitely be back to try more of their menu”

“Honey Roasted Cornflakes, Macadamia & White Chocolate Cookie — my favorite! It was sweet and salty, also the cookie was half-baked, which was such a texture heaven like me (cruchy&chewy) at the same time!”

“The ice cream sandwich was great! The ice cream itself was sorta salty in a wonderful way and seemed to contain pieces of something, maybe toffee. The cake part of the sandwich was soft and moist.”

“Every pastry chef in the world should wave the white flag of defeat when they try this; a brutal display of confident mastery over pastry technique, flavor profile construction, and recipe development.”

“This pastry shot its way up to my personal number one, and it wasn’t even the best thing we ate from Supermoon.”

“The passionfruit curd donut is truly to die for (only if you like citrusy desserts though), and their ube pandan ice cream sandwich is also very delicious (but super rich, I’d recommend sharing)! But honestly, you really can’t go wrong with anything there !”

“So while it was delicious, I’d rather look at a traditional french bakery if I wanted a plain croissant.”

“Supermoon Bakehouse - My favorite laminated bullshit (filled croissants, etc, they're more flakey then they should be) and the most exciting ice cream flavors (the passionfruit one is super pucker, and the soy caramel is just great).”

“Everything was great, the cookie was my fav, I actually didn’t love the Thai tea filling, there was a ton of it and I wish there was a more croissant/less filling balance”

replying to u/thansal: How's the cookie part of the ice cream sandwiches? I got a couple of scoops there recently and I'm now super enthusiastic about their ice cream as I think they have the most interesting flavors in NYC atm. Almost Ice & Vice levels for me. They're also my favorite laminated pastry bullshit options (cruffins, danishes, filled croissants, etc). They're so over the top flakey that it's ridiculous, but I love it. The multi-colored croissants are really pretty (especially once you get inside of them), though I tend to not like the flavor choices or the giant spill of white chocolate.
“the cookie is less cookie and more of an ube brownie. soft and melts into the ice cream beautifully. That sticky, wrapper-coating feeling you remember from childhood ice cream sandwiches.”

replying to u/sushi_sashimi007: Frozen affogato at Torrisi. Chocolate Tarte at Bad Roman. Anything at Supermoon BAKEHOUSE, especially the passion fruit donut. The fiore de latte at il gentile gelato.
“I didn't like the sweet croissants at Supermoon as they felt a little hard / dry, but Imma have to go back to try their plain given all the raves. Their soft serves were not bad!”

replying to u/dininghallenthusiast: Never thought of Supermoon as aggressively sweet but I can see where you're coming from, especially when thinking about the eclairs. I find the doughier pastries more balanced (cruffins, maritozzos). Their gelato was very sweet. Radio has great hits from breakfast through lunch too (especially w/ the sandwiches) which is impressive.
“Some flavours of Supermoon’s gelatos, notably the chocolate and lychee/rose, are disgusting. The lychee/rose one tasted and had the texture of pink bubblegum, no hint of lychee or rose whatsoever, and the chocolate one also barely tasted chocolate (even the color was a very light brown)”

“i think supermoon had nice creamy, rich ice cream and the cookie was definitely custom made to hold ice cream well but the ube pandan flavour was really muted unfortunately”

“Then there are places like Supermoon, which are such utter supremacy that all you can do is feel admiration at the sheer mastery of cuisine and a little twinge of sadness that you might not ever match the level of the work you’re witnessing as a consumer.”
