1. Park Backerei
Located at Tanjong Pagar’s Icon Village, Park Backerei is Singapore’s first German pretzel bakery. Founded by a German native and his wife, the brand initially started out as a home-based business before opening its physical store in August 2023. We recommend their OG Plain Pretzel ($4.20+++), a soft Swabian-style pretzel that’s slightly salty, as well as the savoury Cheese Pretzel ($4.90++).

For something unique, try the refreshing Kaffir Lime Guava Strawberry ($5.50++) too. It’s made with real fruit and comes with sugar pearls that pair well with the tart jam.
