FOODIE VS THE WORLD 

I still dream of that Saturday morning where I ate all that cake. It was without a doubt not only a feast for the mouth and tummy, but also a feast for the eyes. Beautifully laid in a row, D9 Cakery did not fail to impress me with the display of their masterpieces from the Valrhona Premium Cocoa-Inspired Creations, created in collaboration between D9 Cakery and Valrhona. I got the opportunity to meet the woman, Executive Pastry Chef at Hilton Singapore Chef Cindy Khoo as well

I have a confession to make. I go to Chateraise every week to spoil myself with a dose of “Steamed Bun of Milk Taste” — a really creamy Hokkaido Milk ice cream with red bean fillings. So when Chateraise invited us to taste their new cakes and desserts, I leaped at the chance. Chateraise has actually been in Singapore for 4 years, and now has 25 stores islandwide. It was founded in Japan back in 1954, and pioneered the farm to factory system. This means everything across the p

Calling all dessert lovers, there’s a new dessert haven in town! Crème De La Crème is the new go to place for mouth-watering ice cream and cakes.

You can find 18 ice cream flavours here, many which are inspired by local flavours such as Musang King, Barley Lime, Pandan Kaya Toast

Fashion and food are a two of my favourite things. I was so excited when I heard the launch of Antoinette's selection of couture cakes this season. Antoinette has always been famous for its creative and beautiful aesthetic cakes. Inspired by world renowned designers such as Coco Chanel and Issey Miyake, fashionistas and foodies alike are in for a treat! The first cake I tried was the "Chocolat No.5" (pictured on the left), inspired by the iconic Chanel No. 5 perfume, this cho

Rejoice fellow cake lovers! The D9 Cakery in Hilton Singapore is introducing a range of new cakes and sweets that is sure to satisfy any sweet tooth. Before we move on to the food, let me tell you a little about the brains (and beauty) behind these amazing cake creations – Hilton’s executive pastry chef Cindy Khoo. We manged to have a chat with Chef Cindy and she said that she got the inspiration for her cake creations from the two cities closest to her heart (and creates som

This is actually foodievstheworld’s second time to Foret Blanc. The first time we visited, we enjoyed it very much for its whimsical desserts and flawless execution. So of course, we were delighted to be able to try three new desserts from Foret Blanc — the Deconstructed Pavlova, the Breakfast Set and the Gojiberry Buttercake with Homemade Chrysanthemum Ice cream. The Deconstructed Pavlova (RM20) was extremely beautiful in both appearance and taste. The meringue ball was supe

It's the most wonderful time of the year! To celebrate this joyful month, Little Collins is spreading the Christmas cheer with a variety of festive treats for family and friends.

The Baileys chocolate cake is essentially a moist chocolate sponge cake layered with Irish Baileys whiskey

On a rainy Tuesday night, a group of food trucks light up the carpark behind BHP and Caltex at Taman Melawati. Faris, the co-owner of Sundaydotruck greets us while his staff are busy setting up and getting ready for service. Sundaydotruck is a family business started by Lina who is Faris' (far right) sister. She experimented with different flavours and textures in her home before venturing out into the foodtruck business. We got to try 6 different flavours that evening and bo

Singapore's Popular Ah Mah's Homemade Cake has come up with a new flavour that has not failed to wow us all again! The Rocky Choc Ah Mah Cake ($13) is made from luscious dark chocolate, which the chef has generously blended into the cake batter and topped with delicious milk chocolate chips. Even after adding chocolatey goodness, this latest Ah Mah cake still remains as fluffy and light! Ah Mah Homemade Cake is also proud to announce the launch of its first ever outlet in tow

Dessert lovers would recognise the name, Just Heavenly for their fine selection of delicious cakes, but did you know that this dessert place cooks up a storm too? Having been around for 16 years (and counting!), you can trust Allan Yap and Nigel Skelchy, the creative masterminds behind this business for doing what they do best in “Designing Dreams, Serving Pleasure”. It was a pleasure indeed when I had the privilege to be at their flagship cafe recently to peek at what’s in s

Everyone has a preference to either savory, rich or spicy dishes. And then there are those who (just like me!) have a sweet tooth the size of a ship. Even if you're firmly in the sweet-is-better-than-savory camp, it's likely that you have major preferences over what kind of sugary treat is best. Cake Baby, a home based dessert house covers a wide spectrum of all things heavenly, personalised for any occasion. When I was little, my favourite part of attending birthday parties

This small neighbourhood bakery has been open since 2014. It is tucked away in a cosy lane facing the Singapore river.

Cake slices are also available here in classic favourites like carrot cake and of course, the universally worshipped Nutella. The cafe is a great place to sit back and relax while you rea

Jia Yuan, previously of a different establishment has broken away to do his own thing in Jaya One. The Melbourne-trained chef opened a cosy nook in Jaya One and has decided to call it Fest. The interior is very basic and comfortable with just a hint of a hipster vibe. Look at all the desserts I cannot have ~~~~ Since we dropped by for an early dinner, we decided against coffee but instead went for less caffeinated drinks like locally made Tapping Tapir sodas.
