Sembawang Confectionery - Singapore

When times are hard, some of us long for some sweetness to counter the bitterness. Weekend afternoon tea—from Sembawang Confectionery@Blk 6, Beach Rd, #01-4869 (daily from 7am—7pm) This bakery needs no introduction. I love its old-world charm, friendly staff, wide variety of bread types, cakes, buns and many more. The Beach Rd neighbourhood, where Sembawang Confectionery is located, is a lovely place to spend an afternoon.

Simple old school bakery serving up local favourites. Buns, butter cream cakes and tarts. The Pandan chiffon cake $8) is good. It was moist, light and fragrant. Friendly staff.

This quaint, traditional bakery offers a wide selection of treats and has a warm, welcoming atmosphere thanks to the friendly staff. The cream horn is particularly delightful, with just the right amount of sweetness in the cream.

I discovered this traditional bakery on YouTube and decided to cycle all the way from the east coast to Beach Road to pick up some cakes to take home. The traffic light cake is absolutely delicious, and the chocolate chip cake is just as delightful! The egg tart could be the highlight of the day—it's a top-notch egg tart. However, I found the chocolate chip balls to be just average; perhaps younger children would enjoy them more.

The banana is outstanding, the walnut is excellent, the butter is alright, and the fruit is acceptable. Overall, I still give it 5 stars!
