Palette

1. On the corner of High Street overlooking Cardiff Castle occupying a tiny retail space was Palette. Inside there was only a couple of tables and the counter with ice cream and cake.
   
   The selection of ice cream was petite and mainly consisted of the core flavours. The ice cream was made by a company called Joes.

   I’m glad we stumbled on this. I have since found out that there is whole Joe’s ice cream parlour in Cardiff. If I return then I will check it out.

   On this occasion, although the offering was small at Palette, they had Welsh cake flavour. This had to be tried!

   We sat in at one of the tables to eat the ice cream plus we also had a hot chocolate and cappuccino.

   The ice cream was nice and creamy with subtle chunks of raisins and cake integrated.

2. Amazing strawberry shortcake!! I was in the mood for dessert, and passed by this shop by chance. Everything looked fresh and yummy, decided to give it a try, and not disappointed! The staff patiently explained to me each cake/dessert, and told me the strawberry short cake is the most popular one, and it did hit my trip to Cardiff, besides the Monet paintings and the castle across street 🙂

3. An excellent cafe situated right across the road in front of the main gate of Cardiff Castle. Although it is very small in size, but has amazing things for quick bite – cakes, snacks, coffee, cupcakes, brownies, milk-shakes and ice-creams. We tried cakes and ice-creams, and would definitely recommend. They also have a few seats outside and we were lucky to get for ourselves. The staff are absolutely friendly, welcoming and fantastic. Overall, a great place !!!

4. Attracted by the various food and the welcoming smile of the owner, went in and not regretted. The little shop had high-quality food, the vegetable and meat looked fresh. The raspberry cupcake was so tempting. had one and most satisfied. worth visiting and having a bite. The beautiful owner is an Armenian artist, was to open a gallery upstairs. will definitely go there again.

5. Recently had an overnight stay in Cardiff for the fabulous Christmas light show in the park.
   The following morning we were the first customers to enter the upstares of Palette. Had a shashing freshly cooked breakfast and a cracking brew.
