During this tumultuous stay-home period, folks around the world have sought solace in delicious and comforting food. Singaporeans, being natural-born foodies, also rely on food to fill up our bellies and hearts. Plenty of us have turned to desserts to satisfy our sweet tooth. Capitalising on this surge in demand for desserts and the abundance of stay-home time, many have turned to selling their homemade baked goods, all while spreading positivity throughout sunny Singapore. With that said, do support our local home bakers, and check out these 25 home bakers selling unique bakes with matcha chiffon cake, pineapple tarts, choux pastries and more.
