have little frosting on top, which is always the one thing local folk have issues with when it comes to cupcakes. The cupcakes I had were delicious, although if I had one personal complaint, it would be the rolled ball of fondant on the top, which I didn’t like so much. I would have p...
This market is pretty damn awesome. It sells almost everything from old Japanese traditional clothing to beautiful vintage crockery from France. Some items can be quite expensive, but if you snoop around well enough, you’ll find really cool items for just a couple of bucks. Personally...
I’m sure when you visit Shibuya, you will definitely stop by Tokyu Hands . I always start from the top floor and make my way down, scanning floor by floor for things I might like… so you can imagine, by the time I get to the ground floor, I’ve burnt a major hole in my pocket. I don’t ...
* B A N A N A & C A R A M E L * Hello my sweets! It’s the weekend again and if you have time, I’d like to suggest this cake to bake! I saw the recipe in the latest issue of Donna Hay magazine and knew immediately that I had to try making it. It’s super simple to make and the results a...
I’m a sucker for flowers and flower arrangements. While I personally hate receiving flowers, I love buying them and arranging them in their little vases and placing them all over the house. Flowers are always so pleasing to the eyes and make people feel happy, don’t you think? Then th...
If you’re in the Bukit Timah area, you’ll want to drop by Little Men for a little retail therapy. They have rare and eclectic wears, wares and little things like Forage bow ties (great present for the boyfriends, btw) and greeting cards by Quill & Fox . Little Men 7C Binjai Park Singa...

We also did another session the following day and this time instead of a scrub, we did a chocolate detox wrap. They spread a very yummy-smelling chocolate paste/mud all over your body, then wrap you up in a thermal blanket of sorts and you relax will the chocolate does its detox magic...
Hello my lovely honeybuns! I just came back from a 4 day trip to Bangkok with my friends Amanda , Yvonne , Esther and Rumi . Rumi is a dear friend I made when I was in Tokyo a few months back. She’s here in Singapore on a 10-day visit! When I asked what she wanted to do, the first thi...
Hello loves! I’m sure most of you have either just passed by or had meal at Marmalade Pantry at Ion . But have you been to the Pantry At The Stables located at 55 Fairway Drives? It’s just off Eng Neo Ave in the direction of Bukit Timah Road heading towards the PIE. Talk about the tre...

This year I thought of a fun way to celebrate National Day. I decided to make a selection of red & white themed desserts and make a stop motion video with them. Honestly, it was a crazy random idea which I didn’t think would happen, but it did. And I’m glad I did it! Raspberry & lemon...
When Daniel invited me to join the #COOKFORFAMILY Intiative and I immediately replied with a “Yes, I Want To Cook For My Family!”. It is a meaningful movement where we as bloggers hope to encourage you to cook for your family! I hope by the end of this entry, you might be inspired to ...
Preheat your oven to 180C. In a medium sized bowl, place the eggs and sugar. Using a hand mixer (but not switched on), break the yolks and gently mix the ingredients together for about 5 seconds. In a shallow saucepan (if don’t have maybe you can use a frying pan) of simmering water o...
You know what… Plain Vanilla is not overrated. Their cupcakes are extra-ordinarily good. They were awesome the first time I had them, they are still awesome now. The Apple Toffee is my new favorite. It’s out-of-this-world yummy. The toffee drizzle, the moist apple filled core…. Delish...
* C A R P E N T E R & C O O K * Hey everyone! When you view photos of the newly opened Carpenter & Cook in this post, you’ll think “this can’t possibly be in Singapore! ” I’m so happy to tell you that it is! Located near the iconic Beauty World and Bukit Timah Market , you’ll can’t mi...
Hello hello! If you’re thinking.. this photo looks vaguely familiar… It’s not the same but quite similar to the one in this post of my crepe-tastic breakfast. Instead of just a whole stack of crepes, I made it into a crepe cake with the addition of a large number of fruits and good se...
has become a daily aspect of my life, because it helps me stay ‘Switched On’ through the long day. I start my mornings at 6am to bake my first batch of bread. Because baking is such a meticulous process, it is important I am energized and well-focused right after getting out of bed. T...
I have had no idea why my skin condition deproved after coming to Switzerland but I certainly hope with the SKII Cellumination Essence it would once again be back to its ‘glorious days’. Possibly because of the dryness in the air here in Switzerland, though the previous trip to Korea ...
Sorry for the absence! Amanda’s in town, so we’ve been out the whole day every day. Today we attended two cake classes which were a lot of fun, minus the strong winds and rain. Yesterday we went around the always lovely,Kichioji . Every time I visit, there’s always some new cafe, cake...
Early Friday morning breakfast of macarons I had made in class the day before. The class was taught in Japanese and the teacher was talking extra fast because it was a group class with 3 other Japanese ladies. Fortunately, I could understand her in general by picking out familiar word...
I rented a 4 gear pretty red bicycle for the day. It was about a 30-45 minute ride to Ebisu . The weather wasn’t the best for cycling, especially on the way back when the winds were so strong I was nearly blown off the bicycle when I stopped at one or two traffic lights. It was freeee...
! I can’t help myself. I suppose so far, it is probably one of the very few bakeshops that I make sure I go back again and again so that I can try all their cakes. Alison is a brilliant baker and a big inspiration to me. Her cakes are so yummy and I can officially say that cause I’ve ...
I’m getting back on track with blogging. I realised I have quite a lot of photos I’ve been wanting to share but have been procrastinating…More photos from last year’s trip to Japan. Hope you’re not bored of them yet!

I’ve been having a overwhelming craving for ReStore’s cinnamon bagels and if you don’t know by now, when I have a craving, no matter how small, I will satisfy it! While the thought of making bagels has always deterred me from doing so, I finally decided I couldn’t take it anymore and ...

Hi my lovelies! Just the other day, my dear friend Pok came over to my house to do a short video that featured Amanda and I baking. It’s currently being edited and I’m very excited about it! Here are some photos I took throughout the day. One of Pok’s many camera lenses. My grandma’s ...

The thing is, the last time I moved overseas was when I went to London, but back then, I was a child who knew absolutely nothing and didn’t care about anything. Now, with so much responsibilities and expectations weighing down on my shoulders, I have to cultivate a stronger do-or-die ...
