Fro-yo girl here. It’s been a few months since I’ve had a yogurt-flavored cake, but I noticed that Motto Tea Café had a blueberry yogurt crepe cake. One slice was $9.98.
The purple cake was pretty, with uniform thin layers of crepe and yogurt-flavored cream. There was a thin layer of blueberry gelee on top, and then fresh blueberries on top of the gelee. The blueberries were fresh and tart. The cake was soft and creamy. The cream had a hint of yogurt flavor. I liked how it wasn’t that sweet. Still, I think the mille crepe cakes at Lady M taste fresher, but I don't think Lady M has ever had a yogurt cake.

Fro-yo girl here. It was love at first bite when I first tried Yu Cake’s Blueberry Yogurt Cake Roll in 2022. I was impressed enough to want to try all their yogurt cakes, so I tried the yogurt box cake and the raspberry yogurt cake. The Blueberry Yogurt Cake was still the best.
Recently, they introduced a new yogurt cake, the Strawberry Yogurt Mille Crepe Cake ($9.75/slice, $97 for a whole 8” cake). It’s flavored with yogurt powder. Like all Yu Cakes, the cake looked beautiful with thin layers of crepe and cream. There was also a thicker layer of cream with strawberry bits and a strawberry gelee layer.
Strawberry Yogurt Mille Crepe Cake: This was my least favorite Yu Cake to date. The cake had one texture – soft and creamy, but it also had a strange gummy texture. The cream didn’t have much flavor though I did appreciate that the cake was not too sweet. I could also taste a bit of the yogurt and the fresh strawberry flavor. The strawberry gelee was slightly tangy. Something about the texture of the crepes and cream wasn’t quite right.
Yu Cake closed the Rosemead location, so I went to the one in San Gabriel. They also didn’t have the other yogurt cakes that I tried in the past.
