Olsen Bakehouse

This charming little nook along Joo Chiat Road features cakes in familiar flavours like orh nee and pandan. A fan favourite here is the kopi, kaya, and peanut butter layer cake (from $60/whole cake) made with a base of coffee chiffon and slathered with pandan kaya and homemade peanut butter, finished with crushed peanuts. It’s basically your go-to kopitiam breakfast order in cake form. If you’re celebrating a child’s birthday, the DIY bento cake ($32/whole cake) comes plainly frosted with sprinkles and toppings packed separately so that your little one can adorn their cake to their heart’s joy. Vegans are not forgotten – opt for the banana cake with homemade hazelnut-chocolate spread ($62/whole cake) or the sweet potato fudge brownies (from $10).
