Duke Bakery\u2019s healthy baked goods<\/h4>\n

Everyone into wholesome breads know of Duke Bakery. After all, the chain\u2019s known for its large-sized loaves made with Japanese and European baking techniques using high quality ingredients with its 3 \u201cLows\u201d in mind (low sugar, low fat and low calories). And, its breads, indeed, make for healthy eats; Black Goji Precious Green, Chinese Wolfberry, Cranberry Quinoa and 10-Multi Grain Toast are but some of its more popular and beloved fruit- and seed-filled ones.<\/p>\n

But, would a bakery selling such healthy dough offer more creations made of the sweeter stuff? Let\u2019s list some out: Chocolate Bun, Chocolate and Blue Mt. Coffee bread, Taiwanese Pineapple Tart, Traditional Butter Cookies, a range of flavoured Japanese scones and even cakes such as Handmade Almond Banana Cake, Handmade Black Forest (that actually contains alcohol) and Fraisier Entremet (a cake made of strawberry, mix berries compote, vanilla sponge and vanilla diplomat cream). So the answer\u2019s a big and resounding, \u201cYes\u201d. Drop by any of its bakeries found isle-wide or visit its e-store to see just how big of a sweetmeats range Duke Bakery has.<\/p>\n

Old Seng Choong\u2019s mindblowing chiffon cakes, cookies and more<\/h4>\n

The greatest of good food can bridge generations; Old Seng Choong is a brand name you can trust that will please both the elderly folks in your fam and the new gen peeps in your socials. Old Seng Choong is an homage by top SG baker Daniel Tay to his father\u2019s Seng Choong Confectionery that was established in 1965 (it closed in 1996), with the current biz being a bona fide modern-day success \u2013 no surprise, given Tay\u2019s blessed with both traditional baking know-how and creative-mad skills. It\u2019s evident in the baked goods available: Goreng Pisang, Hae Bee Hiam and Laksa cookies; Coconut Blue Pea Flower, Black Sugar Lava and Jeju Yuzu chiffon cakes; Lychee Martini, Taro and Yuzu swiss rolls; Black Pearl and Tiramisu cakes; and Pear, Cherry and Lemon Tarts. There are loads more exciting fusion-flavoured confections to try \u2013 you and the loved one that you are buying it for just need to have an open mind, an adventurous palate and a willingness to share between yourselves (these treats can be absolutely moreish, we kid you not).<\/p>\n

Kintry Singapore\u2019s home-style granolas, cookies and chips<\/h4>\n

Mum knows best, ya? At least for former stay-home-mother and current F&B Mum-preneur, Michelle Chai, she does. Chai knows all about coming up with healthy home-made bites and making a successful business out of selling them; she started her Malaysian brand Kintry in 2017. Fast-forward to today and the former pop-up market, small-batch biz has expanded to be sold in physical brick & mortar supermarkets. But, if you want to peruse its smallish but delish selection of snacks, it\u2019s best to visit the brand at its SG online website and store.<\/p>\n

For granola packs, there\u2019s Pandan Gula Melaka, Salted Butter Caramel, Honey Quinoa (made without nuts) or Chocolate Hazelnut to choose from; for its cookies, there are two flavours, Oat Cookies with Chocolate Chips and Macadamia White Chocolate; and there\u2019s the one and only Salted Egg Yolk Potato Crisps for its chips. The best things about them? They come in mini or regular packs (so you can control portions for snacking) that feature relatable and totes adorbs illustrations and the products are all Halal-certified by JAKIM Malaysia.<\/p>\n
