Nicole: We begin with one of the OGs that started it all, the Californian Apple Stacker (S$9). An impressive four-tiers made with layers of tender spiced sponge. Who knew apple cake could be so good? Made with tart Granny Smiths and balanced with Fuji Apples, each bite was sweet as The Fabulous Baker Boy’s beginnings. Rating: 7/10 Basil: Our cake e...
Nicole: Each cake at The Fabulous Baker Boy promises to be prettier than the last. This Green Tea Praline (S$9.50) cake is no exception, a thin layer of matchabuttercream surrounds a dense butter sponge filled with almond praline Swiss meringue buttercream. I did find the sponge just ever-so-slightly parched, but I was willing to overlook for the s...
Nicole: Our first Diva cake of the afternoon and it’s the incomparable Ms Celine Dion (S$9.50). It’s an elegant white chocolate and macadamia sponge cake that’s filled with a bright red raspberry compote that oozes ever so delightfully as you run your fork through. This makes all the wrongs in the world right, and you’ll want to be all by yourself ...
Nicole: It would be remiss to call The Hummingbird (S$9.50) a banana cake because it’s not. It’s in a league of its own. A spiced, warm cinnamon-y banana cake filled with pecans and pineapple makes banana bread seem rather pedestrian and basic. Rating: 8/10 Basil: The Hummingbird is fruit-forward. The banana and pineapple sit front and centre, and ...
Nicole: Anything with pistachio gets a vote from me and already a fast favourite. Named after Juwanda’s godparents, THE OGGS (S$10)is as complex as it is sweet. A butter torte cake baked with pears and filled with salted caramel, it’s sweet, salty and even fruity all at once. That fragrant pistachio buttercream makes having this cake a genuinely tr...
Nicole: Our first in the Divo series, and we are met with one of the coolest presidents. Inspired by how Obama grew up in Hawaii, the BARACK OBAMA (S$10)pays homage to the copious amounts of pineapples found on the island. A coconut cream cake filled with homemade pineapple jam and cream cheese filling is something you should be having by the beach...
Nicole: Wouldn’t you want a slice of this? Tall, dark and full of coffee just like his Nespresso ads, Mr George Clooney (S$9.50)is the kind of coffee cake we all deserve. Coffee cake usually gets a bad rap for being terribly dry or tasteless but not anymore. This one is moist, loaded with crunchy hazelnut praline with an extra hit of espresso—a par...
Nicole: A cake that’s almost too pretty to eat, the Strawberry Lemon Yoghurt (S$9.50)is a definite crowd-pleaser, and no one would object to having a slice of this. With yoghurt mixed into the batter, the cake is unbelievably moist and yet as light-as-air. It’s hard to go wrong with classic flavours like this and Juwanda nails them to a T. Rating: ...
Nicole: TAKESHI SAN (S$9.50)greets you with a respectful and polite bow as he sits across from you. His black robes are glistening in the afternoon light as he sips his tea—the epitome of decorum and propriety. The intense notes of sesame in both the sponge and buttercream make this cake a celebration of all things sesame. The ferocity of the sesam...
Nicole: What bakery is complete without an earl grey flavoured cake? A dusty pink Earl Grey Swiss meringue with cloud-like layers of earl grey sponge with the heady fragrance of earl grey is enough to let this tea fanatic keel over in excitement. Still, The Bette Midler (S$10)is no run-of-the-mill earl grey cake, a zesty lemon emulsion lifts this s...
