CAAAAKE! // The Fabulous Baker Boy

My mamma has come to visit me, so this week we hopped over to Singapore for a few days to do some shopping, sightseeing and of course, eating - Haha! 

I'd heard about the cake at The Fabulous Baker Boy, it was supposed to be delicious, some of the best cake, if not THE best cake, in Singapore apparently. We had a bit of a challenge locating the place, trekking all the way up the hill into Fort Canning park in the 32 degree 90% humidity (the things I'll do for good cake!), and then all the way back down again when we realised it wasn't up there. Finally we found it, a small one-story bright white building nestled at the bottom of the hill directly behind Clarke Quay. I don't think I've ever been so relieved to walk into a thoroughly air-conditioned cafe in my life. It was H.O.T that day, let me tell you! 

Thankfully, the servers greeted us with a cheery welcome and seeing our sweaty state promptly offered us a table situated under the air-con, complete with a large bottle of icy water. After a few minutes of cooling off and glugging down water, we selected our cakes from the wide array. No easy task given how delectable they all looked! They had about 15 in total; some layered up with buttercream, and a fridge-full of cream-cheese frosted options. I went with Caribbean Lemon cake and my mum opted for Red Velvet. Both were delicious; freshly baked and very tasty; the price was fair (not always the case in Singapore); and the service was the genuinely kind and friendly sort that makes you feel right at home.

I spotted that they also offer a brunch and dinner menu, so I think that gives me a good excuse to return again on my next trip. Then again, the cake alone would have been sufficient of an excuse I reckon. Fabulous indeed!
