compared to the other bakery outlets in the du north campus, cocopots is rather expensive but thetastemakes it worth it. they also provide a 20% discount for students and 50% discount on pastries after 830pm.
delivery : cocopots is a perfect dineout as well as delivery option. the food is very well packed.
favourites : chocolate cheesecake, mango cheesecake, white chocolate mud tart.
1. chocolate mud pastry : 5/5. divine indulgence. the oozy warm chocolate is so so good.
2. butterscotch pastry : 4.5/5. the caramel balls in between the layers takes it to another level.
3. mango cheesecake : 5/5. my favourite. creamy, smooth and delicious.
4. chocolate cheesecake : 5++/5. its the creamiest cheesecake i've ever had. i've had cheesecakes from almost all the top restaurants and bakeries in gtb and cocopot's cheesecakes are the best, by far. you can't help not order it again.
5. opera party : 3.5/5. it tasted good but it was a tad too heavy on coffee that overpowered the chocolate and almond flavours.
6. red velvet brownie : 4/5. the layer of cream cheese on top is 💛. i prefer fudgy brownies to dry brownies which left me a little disappointed as the brownie was more on the drier side. nevertheless, it was tasty.
7. apple pie : 5/5. one of those apple pies that is actually an apple dessert and not a sugar tart with bits of apple. priced at a mere ₹100 (update, new bigger sized one costs ₹150), cocopots' apple pie is a steal. the filling made of golden raisins, cashews and caramelised apples with a mild cinnamon flavour is rich and delicious. the pastry very well baked and its one of the best i've had.
8. red velvet cheesecake : 4.5/5. cocopots cannot go wrong with cheesecakes. i rushed to their outlet as soon as i got the insta notification and it was totally worth it. i hope they continue to surprise by coming up with various flavoured cheesecakes.
9. baked newyork cheesecake : 4.5/5. cocopots' baked newyork cheesecake didn't disappoint but i prefer the chocolate and mango flavoured ones over this.
10. paan pastry : 4/5. the pastry is so light that it didn't feel heavy even after having a pretty big slice of it. the small pieces of tutti frutti on top and in between the layers complemented the paan flavour well. a nice and light pastry perfect for summers.
11. white chocolate mud tart : 5/5. i cannot possibly rave about this enough. chocolate desserts like these freeze moments of time. it had a luscious milk chocolate ganache filling with a layer of white chocolate ganache on top. looked pretty and tasted even better. the chocolate tart shell was too thick but that's hardly a negative considering how delicious it was.
12. blueberry cheesecake : 2.5/5. the first and till date, the only disappointing pastry from cocopots. the biscuit base was too buttery and blueberry cream cheese tasted quite ordinary with a way too soft/wet texture. neither the portion size nor thetastewas worth the price.
13. chocolate modak : 4.5/5. ganesh ji would we happy to be offered a serving of these chocolate delicacies. coated with tempered chocolate on the outside and nuts, berry and cookie dough on the inside, these modaks are flavour bombs. it was rather hard in texture and we had to use a knife to cut through but that was totally worth it.
14. missisippi mud pie tart : 3/5. rather disappointing considering how good their mud pastry and white choc tarts are. it was rather dense and not oozy or as moist as you'd expect. the tart shell was crumbly and too soft. we were left wanting for something to cut through all the richness of the chocolate.
15. chocolate truffle cake : 5/5. gooey, indulgent and delicious. this cake was the highlight of my birthday. the perfectly tempered melt-in-your-mouth bits of white chocolate are addictive.
16. belgian chocolate pastry : 4.5. silky smooth, rich and delicious. this one is rather expensive at ₹180 but the portion size and the quality of chocolate makes it worth it. i did end up wishing there was something like caramel to cut through all the intense richness of the belgian chocolate.
17. blueberry pie : 3.5/5 : although both the blueberry compote filling and the tart shell were delicious, the pastry tart shell was rather soft in texture and a bit too thick. the eye catching and pretty gold flower thing on top had a weird elastic / rubbery texture to it.
