New Strawberry Yogurt Mille Crepe Cake From Yu 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.

You know you love me. X0 X0, fro-yo girl.
