Aroma, Biggar

Friendly cafe on the main road going through Biggar. There was a lovely looking chocolate cake in the display cabinet but for research purposes I ordered the Rocky Road. Wish I'd tried the chocolate cake. Perhaps it was just because the previous Rocky Road was so good (it was the Reading Lasses one with the montezuma's chocolate) but it was a little disappointing. It did have large marshmallows, so thumbs up for that, and I had seen a little bit of cherry on the slice but sadly that little hint was all there was, on that piece anyway. There were no chunks of biscuit and the chocolate was a little too sweet for me. I realise that saying the chocolate in a rocky road is a bit too sweet is like finding the water in a swimming pool is a bit too wet. But there you go, it was milk chocolate and didn't compare well with the bitter richness of the Reading Lasses version. Also, finding that there was no more cherry than the tiny sliver so my expectations hit the floor. I would recommend the cafe though, the coffee was good.
