Cakes

A very hungry Burppler, Celest, puts it perfectly: "This is chocolate - in cake form". Don't bother resisting the urge, just buy a whole cake and we assure you it'll be love at first bite. You won't want to share it, but you'll have to, cos it's just too darn good. It's a tough fight between the original and the dark chocolate, they're both excellent. Their molten lava cake is a must-try as well, with warm oozing cake sitting atop cold ice cream in cup- the perfect combination of hot and cold with extra oozy chocolate!

Located within The Little Drom Store, Kki can be easily missed if you're heading there for the first time. With only a few seats available, just a handful will be able to dine in the charmingly quirky interior. Savor these gorgeous creations slowly, and take notice of how carefully and beautifully crafted they are, even on the inside! We love the ever-classy Antoinette, bursting with creamy white chocolate mousse paired with mango.

Ok, we're gonna close one eye, and consider the humble Swiss roll as a form of cake. Simple yet extremely delicious, we love how good things come in a roll. These classic Swiss rolls are perfect for a simple afternoon tea with the family, with traditional flavors like kaya, durian and mango. Those who queue for these rolls often buy 5 to 10 rolls at a go, distributing them among family members and colleagues. We recommend you do the same!

Translated as "the Tiramisu workshop", this new kid on the block is a strong contender for serving up the best Tiramisu in Singapore. Crowd favourites are the Classico, gorgeously light and aromatic, as well as the Dark Cherry, great for those who love intense liquer and cognac notes. To make the experience complete, you can enjoy a beautifully made cup of coffee along with your tiramisu. It might interest you to know that the coffee used in the tiramisu is pulled from Liberty beans!

Some say that Dulcet & Studio has THE best scoop cake, ever. It sells out really quick, and is best eaten fast at the shop. Indulge in "it's so fluffy I'm gonna die!" texture, the light-as-air sponge cake generously layered with dense, vanilla scented cream, and topped with fresh fruit. If you enjoy the taste of apple, we recommend the apple custard Millefeuille! It's a pretty fun to eat an entire scoop cake, just dive in and scoop with your spoon ;)

Awfully Chocolate is accessible to most of us, making it that much easier to satisfy our chocolate cravings anytime. The thick, rich chocolatey taste of their Super Stacked Cake will leave you wanting for more. Count 'em, it's not one, but six fudge layers!For a good brownie fix, try their Salted Butterscotch Brownie, a really chewy treat.

This unassuming bakery will surprise you with its variety, affordability and quality. It is rare to find a neighborhood bakery that does such unique buttercream variations, and Pine Garden does it remarkably well. Popular flavors include their Lychee Martini (at only $2.50 a slice) and the Hazelnut Chocolate Crunch Cake. These guys even do custom wedding and birthday cakes along with Asian pastries!

Japanese inspired french pastry? Why yes, please! With over 20 years of Japanese baking experience, Chef Yamashita gets his inspiration from flowers. "Flor", pronounced in Japanese as "fu-ro-ru", means "flower". Every cake is almost like an art piece, full of color and vibrant but balanced flavor- perfect for a special occasion. If you're looking for a bite of heaven on-the-go, grab their ice cheese tartlets in any flavor you please, cos they're so.damn.good.

Opened by the gutsy/ gorgeous Zenn Eng, Cake Spade brings something fresh to the cake scene we didn't know we were missing. Her tofu cheesecakes are genius, light and creamy at the same time, appealing even to those who don't like cheese or tofu (well, they don't actually contain tofu, it refers to the texture). The strawberry is popular, but the peach makes you come back for more. What Zenn has really achieved with her cakes is great balance. Check out this industrial-chic space for yourself, and get a few slices to share.

Known for their gorgeous HUGE cakes, The Fabulous Baker Boy is simply fabulous. Dig into their sinfully rich, chocolate covered Red Velvet cake with a cup of coffee. Set in The Foothills, it's a nice place to relax with a couple of friends on a lazy afternoon. We suggest that you share a few slices, but hey, sometimes it's alright to be selfish.
