All you knead is a cup of determination, a spoonful of luck and one awesome DIY baking kit…
Is it just us or are people becoming more ready than ever to kick ass in MasterChef? The circuit breaker has truly turned us into domestic gods/goddesses, thanks to DIY meal kits and quarantine baking recipes. But for those new to the world of flour, eggs and sugar, baking can seem intimidating – that includes trying to figure out all the measuring units in the world. Lucky for us, the science of baking is made easier with these baking kits that provide all the necessary ingredients in the right amount. Be it cupcakes, muffins, cookies or cakes, now you can easily bedazzle the family with your creations.
Cookyn Inc.
Not sure what to cook for dinner? Take your pick from Cookyn Inc.’s recipe kits, which not only offer delicious meals such as meatball pasta, roasted chicken and shepherd’s pie, but each savoury item is paired with a sugary treat. Expect the likes of banoffee trifle, apple crumble and even local flavours like kueh dadar or Milo bread and butter pudding.

Bake at home with Janice Wong
While we can’t have local dessert maestro Janice Wong in the kitchen to help us along the way, her baking kits are the next best thing. From chocolate and green tea cakes to madeleine and chocolate truffles, even novice bakers can handle this as there are step-by-step video tutorials. For those seeking a little less adventure, go for the easy premixes, which are available in flavours like red velvet and chocolate brownie.

Bakestarters
This is the perfect go-to option for beginners as Bakestarters has already done the work for you by providing measured-out ingredients. All you have to do is choose from an extensive list of baking kits, including cakes, shortbread, cookies and cream puffs. Do take note that most of the kits sell out real quick, so keep an eye on the Facebook page for restock updates.
