We spent the relaxing Saturday afternoon at Starbucks Coffee in Sunway Pyramid. Like nearly every mall during the festive year-end holiday season, the café is quite fully occupied when we arrived. Fortunately we managed to secure a small table to enjoy our drinks.
The Grande-size Toffee Nut Frappuccino (RM15.50) is an ice-blended drink made from toffee. Toffee is a type of candy made from caramelized sugar and butter. This gives the drink a rich and buttery flavor followed by lasting sensation of sweetness. The drink is also infused with a hint of toasted nuts, giving it a bitter-sweet aftertaste. On top, whipped cream and toffee-flavored sprinkles gives this beverage an appealing and glamorous appearance.
The Tall-size Asian Dolce Latte (RM13.00) is the Asian-inspired version of classical latte. In this drink, double-shot espresso roast is melded with specially prepared dolce sauce (blend of special type of milk) to give it a rich, velvety texture. The flavorful drink is then topped with sweetened whipped cream and a dusting of finely ground coffee beans.
