And what an indulgent chocolate cake it is. The flagship store and its many outlets now has a long list of specialities, including truffle chocolate, poached chocolates, and the Chocolate Banana – named one of Singapore's top five cakes. It's Chocolate Rum and Cherry cake also hits the sweet spot oh-so nicely. The Sinpopo Brand is also under their ownership.

Rive Gauche's signature cake is the Guanaja – a French bittersweet chocolate, chocolate mousse and chocolate sponge cake all form layers atop a crispy chocolate biscuit bottom. The combo of textures ensures that every bite has an interesting mixture of smoothness and crunch. The Strawberry Short Cake tastes so light, you can't stop at just one bite.

Founded in 2018, pastry chefs Germaine Li and Joy Chiam came together to realise their approach to French desserts with fresh produce and flavours by creating Pâtisserie CLÉ. Having worked in the kitchens of Les Amis and Joël Robuchon Restaurant, the pair are using what they’ve learnt to create unique sweet treats that include Noisette (from $62), a dark chocolate cake with hazelnut praline, or the special Orh Blanc Tart (from $42), which is a playful twist on the French Mont Blanc dessert where yam paste is used instead of chestnut paste. Orders need to be placed 48 hours in advance and deliveries are from 1-6pm.

Love durian? Enjoy it in a decadent dessert from The Durian Bakery, where the quality of the durian itself is not compromised. Rather than using leftovers of the pungent king of fruit, the bakery only uses pulp from the Mao Shan Wang durians it delivers from its private plantation in Pahang, Malaysia. Try its signature cakes, like the award-winning signature Mao Shan Wang mille crepe cake and classic Mao Shan Wang durian cake; or go for more innovative flavours like black forest cherry with Mao Shan Wang. The Durian Bakery also has well-stuffed durian puffs, delicate durian tarts, chewy durian mochi and more.

Zee and Elle use mother nature as muse, translating scenic snapshots into edible works of art by creating intricate, multi-layered and nature-themed cakes at their bakery. The natural inspiration extends beyond design to the baking process. Cake flavours come in botanical themes: there’s guava lychee (from $38 for a petite four-inch one), where guava sponge is slathered with guava cream and juice lychee bits; and honey yuzu (from $58), a personal favourite of the pair, with yuzu cake layered with yuzu curd and manuka honey cream. There are also vegan and sugar-free options on the catalogue if you're looking for a lighter and guilt-free way to enjoy cake.
