  • Lavender Bakery Garlic Cream Cheese Bun Review

    8.27.2020

    Garlic Cream Cheese Bun
    image source: Lavender Bakery

    Today I went to my favorite bakery in 1 Utama to get my usual Toffee Danish (it's heavenly with coffee) and saw something different. The popular Korean street food O_O Garlic Cream Cheese Bun! But truthfully, I didn't even know it's from Korea (LOL). I only knew about this delicious, sinful bread from AEON's LaBoheme which is so addictive! (I try to avoid buying this because one bite and you're hooked).

    So Lavender's pretty small, the size of your palm only and it's priced at RM4.20. Quite a cute size but AEON's is much more value. I thought maybe the ingredients are more premium, so I bought it, went home to enjoy this new treasure. One bite and...

    Immediately, all hope died. This was the worst bun I've ever eaten. The bun is so tough to eat, lucky I still have my teeth. I don't think elderly people can even chew this bun, it's just really tough. I am so disappointed at Lavender for this. Did they quality check this before selling?

    Or maybe I was unlucky to have bought one weird bun.


    P.S: Manglish version of me talking.

    Besides the bazaar, there will be a plant giveaway event to promote green love to anyone who's interested in growing plants at home. It's especially good for beginners who don't have green thumbs as there will be plenty of indoor baby plants for you to bring back to watch them grow. Once you bring them back, just pm me to ask about the plants! I'm on IG or FB.

     water propagation plants on desk, home, etc

    you can put in the bathroom (if there's light)

    Over 100 kinds of money plant (pothos), snake plants, alocasias, aloe veras, potted plants and other cuttings and propagations to take home. All at the plant giveaway table. Please take 1 - 3 different plants per person. Leave some for others! Sharing is caring 💚  After 3pm, we will allow you to take home as many plants as you can! Leftover plants will be donated to Crab Shack.


    Most of the plants will be in water, pots, or just with its roots because they're cuttings and babies given by kind-hearted people. What you can do is buy a mixed soil pack from the bazaar @ Jane Lee's table, and she can pot them for you! (do wait for turn yeah). Some of us are selling pots e.g plastic pots, nordic cement pots, and nice pots so you can opt to buy pots and get everything done on the spot and bring back.

    Free Fertiliser & Viral Plant Redemption

    Besides the plant giveaway table, there will be separate redemption booths for visitors as well. Bio-mate is giving away free 100 natural fertilizer pack 500g at their booth from 11am - 1pm only. This is while stocks last! Ask them how to use the fertilizers, they're here to help explain.

    see the 100 free snake plants on the floor?

    I'm also giving away free 100 viral snake plants for visitors by coupon redemption! Coupons are given to 1st 100 people at the event entrance (fair right? no need to serbu and fight). First come first serve, while stocks last.

    The snake plants are big and beautiful, assorted sizes. There are two types of snake plants here @ Sansevieria Trifasciata & Trifasciata Golden Hahnii (small species nice for indoor). Do note they're not potted, so you'll have to bring home to pot yourself or buy mixed soil and get it potted at mixed soil station.

    You can buy plastic pots from my booth or nicer pots from other booths! (go look around).

    air plants from rm20 onwards

    Air plants are very easy to care for plants that require very little care as long as you give it lots of indirect sunlight to grow. It can change color and flower when happy. They're called air plants coz they can survive using nutrients from the air! Mist them 2 - 3 days once and soak in water for 5 - 10mins weekly only.
