This dessert brand, which originated in Taizhou, entered Hangzhou in 17 years and currently has two stores: Guotai and Yintai. The founder Di Qianyi has successively become a guest of popular variety shows such as "Twelve Sharp Flavors" and "Youth Hostel", and her popularity has soared, which has also made Sugar Swing one of the "Internet celebrity check-in" holy places in Hangzhou. Di Qianyi, who was called "Teacher Qiu" by fans because of her Weibo name "Teacher Hehuo", studied at Le Cordon Bleu Ottawa Campus during her study in Canada, and finally graduated as an outstanding student. The founder's considerable qualifications have made the sugar swing get rid of the impression of "good looking or not delicious" in the Internet celebrity cake shop to a certain extent. Its products are concise in shape and light in taste, just like the slogan in the store: Life is too hard, add some sugar.
The two stores in Hangzhou are not too large, without too much decoration, and they are simple and indifferent to Japan. Walking through the door, a small number of tableware and slogans hang from large white square tiles, and in front of the glass window is a row of log tables and chairs, separated by a few green plants. White and logs form the main color of the interior, which is the popular IG style, but in order to accommodate as many customers as possible, the store has placed too many tables and chairs in the side hall, which makes the already narrow space even more cramped and reduces the comfort of dining.
"Listen to the Rain" is a classic style of sugar swing, and this cake is infused with lemon and mint, which is not so much a subtle rainy season in Jiangnan as a bitter tropical rainstorm. The chocolate shell and the mousse are inside, crispy on the outside and soft on the inside, sweet and sour, although there are not many highlights in the taste, but combined with the price of 39 yuan, it is still worth a try. Cold Mountain is a new style of sugar swing, with gray-white peaks with sharp edges and snow-white frosting like snow, just in time to cool down the hot summer months. In addition to its pleasing appearance, the mousse with sesame seeds is also amazing, with a unique sesame aroma and the brown sugar mochi on the bottom, which is sweet and soft and glutinous, which contrasts sharply with the cold appearance. Another type of custard with black sesame as the protagonist is also popular in the store, with the pitch-black sesame roll wrapping pure white fresh cream, one black and one white, complementing each other; The soft crust is mixed with a hint of salty cream, giving it a light texture that is not greasy. The disadvantage of this cake is that the cream and roll skin are too loose, and the result of the lack of cohesion is that the cake tends to fall apart, affecting the taste and appearance.
The service of the sugar swing is quite in place, and the clerk will take the initiative to come forward before the guests come to the freezer, and give suggestions according to the taste of the guests, and when the guests choose more than one cake, they will also remind the match between sweet and sour, bitter and sweet, which is very intimate. In addition, each cake has a detailed introduction below, listing the ingredients and flavors for customers to choose. There is also a tame and cute Shiba Inu in the store, and every time she appears cute, she will murder a large wave of young ladies and sisters, which can be called the mascot of the sugar swing.
