New Jersey's This Soufflé Gets a Perfect Score!

Blue Fig Garden, which serves customers in its Wayne and Cherry Hill locations in the U.S. state of New Jersey, draws attention not only with its extensive menu of dishes but also with its dessert options. The restaurant, which brings together diverse flavors from Turkish and international cuisine, offers a rich alternative for dessert lovers.

United States Post New York correspondent Özlem Özgüt Yörekli examined Blue Fig Garden’s dessert menu on site and sampled its standout flavors. After tasting künefe, baklava, soufflé, and specialty cakes, as well as smoothies in various flavors, Yörekli shared her impressions with United States Post viewers.

Traditional Turkish Desserts Take Center Stage

Blue Fig Garden’s dessert menu features beloved Turkish favorites such as künefe, pistachio and walnut baklava, triliçe, and rice pudding. The menu also includes international selections like tiramisu, crème brûlée, soufflé, and specialty cakes.

The first stop on the dessert experience was künefe. Tasting the pastry with its crisp phyllo and stretching cheese alongside a strawberry smoothie, Yörekli said she appreciated both the appearance and flavor of the treat.

It Earned a Full Score for Its Soufflé Flavor

One of the most striking flavors in the tasting was the chocolate soufflé. With a light crust on the outside and a fluid chocolate filling inside, the soufflé ranked among Yörekli's favorite desserts.

Impressed by the soufflé's flavor, Yörekli said, "I could say it's one of the best soufflés I've ever had."

He claimed, "I would even come to Blue Fig Garden just for this soufflé," expressing his approval. The mango smoothie accompanying the soufflé was also one of the tasting's standout drinks.

Pistachio and Chocolate Cakes Were Also Sampled

Blue Fig Garden's specialty cake selections were also reviewed. The Pistachio Cake, with its soft texture and mild flavor, garnered praise, while the Pyramid Chocolate Cake, noted for its intense chocolate taste, was considered one of the options appealing to chocolate lovers.

Highlighting the cake's lightness, Yörekli remarked, "It’s as soft as cotton. Moreover, the taste is very mild. I’m not exaggerating; I could eat four or five slices in a row." The mint and lemon smoothie served alongside the cake also earned praise.

A Sweet Finale with Baklava and Turkish Coffee

Baklava, one of Turkish cuisine's indispensable flavors, also became one of the tasting journey's important stops.

Yörekli, who tried pistachio and walnut baklava with pistachio ice cream, said he liked the flavor of both varieties.

The restaurant’s beverage menu includes latte, espresso, and cappuccino, as well as traditional Turkish coffee. The tasting journey of diverse desserts was completed with a generous, foamy cup of Turkish coffee.
