Hiap Joo Bakery & Biscuit Factory

PSA TAKE NOTE banana breads come out at 730am and 1030am strictly or later, and sells out somewhat quickly?(because a lot of people buy a lot...) Buns come out at 1130

Overhyped. What did you expect? Not sure why a cult following developed to the point where people are buying back as middleman and others are taking away piles of it, but it's too much and expectedly no simple banana cake should deserve this much attention

That's not to say it's not worth queueing tho, after all, the queue moves quickly. The texture is pretty soft and honestly it's somewhat rich as well, quite unique. Depending on your preference this might not be your favourite but there's no shortcomings at all.

Tbh it's quite ulu u need to grab here, it's not like it's damn near the checkpoint.

The Best Banana Cake (RM10)
Hiap Joo Banana Cake was freshly made and piping hot when I first got it 🍌 Banana cake was soft, moist and not too crumbly! One thing that I really liked was that the cake wasn’t too oily and buttery, but moist enough to not get tough to eat!

Hiap Joo seems to be making the rounds lately in SG. Using the simplest of ingredients, this golden brown banana bread is light and soft, incredibly moist and flavourful, making it perfect for breakfast or simply an afternoon snack. The clean cut banana cakes were really fragrant, no thanks to the hole-in-the-wall wood fired oven used by the shop. Priced affordably, it's no wonder there's so much hype over it.

How to pass up the opportunity to buy Hiap Joo’s famed banana cake even if I love their buns? Banana cakes are usually out of the oven early, but we were there on a Monday - the only day their banana cakes come out at 12 noon. Note that they don’t accept any pre-orders unless you order more than 20 boxes. When we joined the queue at 11.45, there were already 15 people ahead of us and we missed the first batch of cakes that came out of the oven. Waited another 20 minutes for the second batch at 12.20 and got our hands on these warm, soft, moist and springy banana cakes. Admittedly these don’t have a strong banana taste, but they’re light and super moist. Just skip the small box (5 slices) and buy the large ones with 10 slices!
