Love beautiful cakes? Customise your own with these talented bakeries in Singapore

#01-03, Ngee Ann Polytechnic Block 16, 535 Clementi Road, www.cupplets.com

Customised creations from Cupplets look rustic and homemade – that is, if your homemade bakes are multi-tiered marvels covered in a watercolour marbled effect and decorated with a confetti of pretty blooms, herbs, ice cream cones, glazed doughnuts or macaroons.

Founders Ernest and Samantha Quek love fresh blooms, so their made-to-orders are filled with them. The flowers depend on the season and what they have on hand. If you are looking for a particular bloom, be sure to check with them in advance.

But if you want your flowers and eat them too, Cupplets also pipes blossoms made with buttercream. Or you can go for a mix of buttercream and fresh flowers for a visual and floral treat.  

Cake flavours: Popular ones include Elderflower, Salted Caramel, Lemon and Rose, Raspberry Red Velvet and Yuzu Passionfruit 

Sizes: From 5”.

Prices: Call to check for prices. Pre-order one to two weeks in advance.
