With all of the times we’ve walked right by this place I can’t imagine why we never poked our head in to look around. I guess it was the really fancy cakes they had in the display cases facing out towards the mall walkway. Tampines 1 isn’t really the place I’d think of when I want good, but reasonably priced, baked goods.
However, with my time in Singapore fast coming to an end, I got curious and looked around inside. I was surprised to see great prices and a great variety of sweet baked items. There were things with chocolate cream, custard fillings and apple pies and it was all completely affordable.
We quickly loaded up a tray to take home with us. We’re gonna have to go on some long runs this week to burn off these calories, but they were definitely worth it!
The custard was better than I’d hoped, the waffle was sweet and tasted like it’d go great in a bowl of vanilla ice cream, and the apple pie my wife picked out was incredible!
If you’re looking for some good quality pastry type items for a good price, I recommend this place. You can even get some Japanese milk tea or cafe au lait from the cooler to wash down your pastry.
