One of the bakery's signature offerings is their signature Kaya Pandan Cake (咖椰蛋糕), a delightful marrying of fragrant pandan sponge and rich kaya jam. Made from real pandan leaves and prepared according to a traditional recipe passed down through generations, the cake is a lovely blend of flavors with just the right amount of sweetness and moisture.

The bakery also offers classic butter cakes, marble cakes and banana cakes, starting from just $13 for a 6-inch cake. 8-inch cake sizes are also available for a bigger party crowd.
Also, I have to confess something though, on the same day I had my cakes delivered, I already devoured half of it with my parents, who really enjoyed it as it's really light, fragrant and easy to consume. The next flavor I will aim to try is their marble cake, as it's one of my favorites!

Oh yes, have I already mentioned they also offer the MSW Durian Pandan Layered cake? This cake is most expensive out of all their bakes, at $31 for 6-inch cake, which seems to be the only size they offer at the moment.
