The famous Australian-inspired café in Seminyak recently branched out to the capital early this month, bringing along its sister brand Sibling Espresso Bar, which is described as a “small-batch coffee roaster and espresso bar.”
Both brands are managed under 8 Degree Projects, a Bali-based hospitality and lifestyle group that also houses Bikini, Fika, and Bo$$man Burger in Seminyak — the latter of which arrived in Jakarta last year.
As the name suggests, Sisterfields Bakery only serves baked goods, granola, and coffee.
One of the foods is Sisterfields’ Famous Carrot Cake (IDR40,000), an Australian-style carrot cake with cream cheese icing, toasted coconut flakes, pineapple compote, grated carrots, and apple, and lemon zest. Its crumbly texture, which resulted in a heavier taste on the cream cheese that overpowered the whole flavor.
The Tunisian Orange Cake (IDR30,000), a Tunisian orange and almond cake, spiced syrup, cinnamon stick, star anise, and cloves with citrus-flavored icing. It’s basically a pound cake, with an added orange flavor that is pleasant without being too sweet nor sour, and we feel like it’s a great accompaniment to your afternoon tea.
Sisterfields’ Tabanan Chocolate Brownie (IDR40,000), described as a classic chocolate brownie with Balinese chocolate, raspberry, and walnut.
The brownie seems like it has so much potential, but it, unfortunately, feels dry and crumbled easily when we bit and sliced into it.
Sisterfields’ other baked goods include Chocolate Cherry Mud Cake and Raspberry Blondie (both IDR40,000), as well as Bittersweet Granola and Banana and Chocolate Granola (both IDR75,000).
Moving on to Sibling’s beverage lineup, there is The Es Kopi Susu (IDR45,000), Sibling’s take on the es kopi trend, which is sweetened by Balinese palm sugar.
The Black Coffee Honey (IDR40,000) is sweetened with black honey.
The Rosella Ginger Tea (IDR38,500), a Bali rosella tea with red ginger and kaffir lime, would make for an easy refreshing afternoon treat with just the right amount of sweetness and tanginess and just a hint of bitter aftertaste. The other item in the tea lineup is Black Tea Vanilla Mint (IDR38,500).
Sisterfields Bakery is worth a try, especially if you’re a fan of the OG Sisterfields in Bali or just looking for affordable sweet bites to accompany your drink of choice.
