新加坡有名芋泥蛋糕，新加坡 Olsen Bakehouse，新加坡风味蛋糕，新加坡必吃美食

Oh my god, this one is great. This is definitely my go-to. I think it's probably one of the best. Shioh Pan in Singapore, I would say. Everything that we do here, we bake, we make, are things that we will feed our own family and friends. Strawberry shortcake, or chocolate cake You know, these are the flavors that Most parents would ask for their children. And it's such a waste because We have so many amazing flavors in the Southeast Asian context Things like pandan, gula melaka. We decided, you know, we're going to be a little bit different. We're going to focus Into the cakes. We'd tell customers, like, okay, if you're ordering for a young child, then try the onde-onde because They're familiar with, you know, pandan. Gula melaka is that sweet flavor. True enough, along the way, parents will Come back and say that Actually, their child loves it. That cake. And there are some kids, even To this day, the parents will say, "My kid" Only eats the onde-onde cake. We also have kopi kaya peanut butter. And I feel that's very Singaporean. flavor because how we came up with that flavor was Me and Jiaming, our standard breakfast at some point Was the Yakun set F? So at the time, Yakun set F Kaya peanut butter toast set. Then we have it for free. And so we decided, You know, we should turn this into a cake. We love it so much. A funny story is, we actually started calling this cake the Yakun set F. It was a very good cake to sell because People love Yakun, right? One day, very kindly, the yakun people came to us and said, It sounded something like, oh, we're very honoured. that you've named it, but it's actually Copyright, so I think you need to change the name. So we changed it to peanut butter kaya. I met my wife, Jiaming. She was My senior at university. One day she wanted to learn how to make a no-bake item through a mutual friend. She wasn't Ready to meet new people but I came along and from there we continued having these little meetups. Jiaming and I felt like There was excellent chemistry. Funny thing is, we studied chemistry. at university. We were not together at all. We were friends for the the longest time. I definitely harboured feelings for her but she was always attached. Her At that time, it was part of the business. Initially. In 2017, she felt like her relationship wasn't going anywhere and a very close friend of ours watched a Taiwan drama and She showed it to Jiaming. The Taiwanese drama is about this guy and this. girls who are best friends but they have never gotten together. The guy In the drama, his name is Da Ren. So it's really very obvious. So when she finally broke up with me, I told her that I want to spend the rest of my life with her because I think it was four years into the business We did everything together. I just knew that this is the person that I wanted to spend my life together with so in 2018, I think around Chinese New Year, we got together. Two months later, we decided to get Married. It was very quick. We were so sure of each other, and we got married. the following year, 2019 January. We have always known for our cakes and our customers Love the cakes, but when we moved into Jiu About four years ago ago in 2022, having a space here, knew that coffee and bread would also be another a piece of the puzzle that We are missing out. So we started to do bread. One day, we went to Korea because my her sister-in-law at that time, she was living in Korea. Everyone was saying, you must try this salt bread and I'm not someone who likes to fall into a trend, so I really resisted trying the salt bread but I went to Korea and I tried the Salt bread, and it was nice. But I felt it was very heavy. I kept thinking about this because I felt like the salt bread is still like that Asian counterpart to A French croissant, right? And it's very Asian because it's soft. People like things that are soft and fluffy. I decided to try. and make my own version of the salt bread, the siu pan and I really love the final product. I tried many different times and I felt like, okay, Not buttery enough, or not? It's too oily. and I came across this recipe that I feel is what represents Me. Then we started to put it out. Since then, it has been One of the products that our customers keep coming back for. So they buy it in bulk or they Just buy it for their breakfast that day and I think it's just like a testament to How much they enjoy the baked goods that they will come back every day. I work around here and Olsen is my everyday breakfast, so I I'd just have one garlic siu pan. and ice chocolate to go. I think one of the best, probably Siu Pan in Singapore, I would say. Oh my god. I like this one better. To me, because I like its very buttery taste. and at the same time a little bit salty but both buttery and salty taste complement each other and I think what I really like about this is also that it's very soft. It's kind of soft that I don't know, like a melt-in-your-mouth kind of sensation. So I would rate This is my number one. This is definitely my go-to because I like butter. For the siu pan, I think it was Actually really good already compared to some other places where I have eaten. Because some places I tried, it's a bit oily I feel it. But this doesn't have that greasy feeling. It feels a bit healthy. I really try my Best to get up by 4:30 and in the shop around 5, we start making our breads first. Then We can focus on the cakes. We also decided when we would have kids. that we are going to slow things down Down. It's just me who's going to work. She's going to stay home and take care of the kids. We are also homeschooling. The kids and I think that ties into mindful baking and slow alive because life is just Too hectic. It's too much. to try and follow where society expects us to be. Mindful baking which ties into what we do things with heart. Whatever we do is what I would be confident about to give to my friends and family. In 2019, We were expecting our first and he was due sometime in June but in May, two days after one of the regular checkups, his heart stopped. So at thirty-three and a half weeks, we were going into a weekend where we had wedding orders and wedding cakes because Our customers trust us. So we can't just say, "I'm so sorry." I can't do this right. So that silver lining during that period was knowing that we had such a a solid support system through our friends and people in the industry that they came Together and they helped us to complete our orders. And those were the two weekends when We had to go to the hospital, make sure. Everything was okay and also induce. The baby out. Humanity can always come together no matter what kind of challenge you face. So when You face a challenge, we always just leave it to God and we see how His hand is always there to guide us Sending angels to us and we always receive so many, so many angels during different difficult periods in our lives We have always believed that whatever we do is I think first of all, to be human, to be kind To be generous, right? And things will always come back to us From our family to yours. So everything that we do here We bake, we make things that we will feed our own family and friends. Not thinking about How much money can I make from this? but who is going to benefit From this. That's why we also have something like the gluten-free products, the things that are allergen-free cakes because It might not bring us that. huge amount of sales but I think it helps people celebrate together with their loved ones who might not be able to enjoy a regular cake that contains eggs and wheat and things like that. Even though we see others businesses open up, right? But I Look at these people as equals. in the industry. I don't really think of them as competitors because we always do different things. There is no two businesses that do exactly the same thing. Working in a mindset of abundance always makes you feel a lot better than working in a mindset of scarcity where you're always afraid, like, okay, is this person Going to steal my recipe? Is this person going to copy? Me? But thinking about it and Humans are good, humans are kind. Humans are generous. It helps. us also focus and do Well, in what we do and do not do bothered by everything outside Kindness, honesty, integrity Love and respect. I think these are very fundamental values. that I try to do as all our things that We do. So I look at the next five years, right, and it's For me, I go back to how we can maintain quality and it's still one shop, one location and I'm still going to be here all the time. Customers will always Still see me and ensure that we can create products that people will like, will love, will want to keep coming back to keep serving the people who are in the area and helping People celebrate together.
