“The egg tarts are hands down one of the best”

Tiny bakery provides delicious fresh bakery. The egg tarts are hands down one of the best we've had for a long time! Pandan bread is on point and other buns are yummy! Will be back!

Incredible selection of Asian buns, cakes and pies. Highlights for me are the red bean buns and Portuguese egg tarts. Lots to try if you're looking for something new, and all very reasonably priced. Can be very busy so expect to queue to pay at lunch time.

We ordered a lychee and chocolate birthday cake and it was absolutely excellent — easily a 5/5. Fresh, light, and full of flavour. One of the best cakes we've had.
