Ng Kim Lee Confectionery has traditional bakes in Beauty World

As food moves with the times, traditional bakeries in Singapore are gradually diminishing too. That only means that the significance of these bakeries are becoming more apparent, and every new find tucked away in our neighbourhoods is worth a mention. Cue Ng Kim Lee Confectionery, an old-school bakery with more than 60 years of history.ย

Their Kaya Cake ($1.20) is a steady seller among patrons, and it features a top layer of pandan chiffon cake, and a bottom layer of kueh. Some online reviews point to the fact that the pandan flavour is relatively strong and sweet!
