Auntie Peng Banana Pie<\/h3>\n<p>Dona Manis&#8217; former co-owner, the eponymous Auntie Peng, left to open a new bakery\u2026 right beside the previous store. The modus operandi remains the same: affordable banana pies and chocolate tarts. Obviously, there&#8217;ll be comparisons between the two businesses. But in our humble opinion, each has its merits. Auntie Peng&#8217;s pies have a defined crunch with tangier bananas, while the tarts melt in your mouth.<br \/>\n<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/profile.php?id=61557905100368\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Auntie Peng Banana Pie<\/a>, #B1-92, Katong Shopping Centre, 865 Mountbatten Road, Singapore 437844<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>2.

For the uninitiated, the latter is a flaky, Chinese mung bean pastry that comes in two flavours: salty and sweet. Loong Fatt is the name most associated with this treat, and it&#8217;s been serving buttery tau sar piah since 1948, so you know it ain\u2019t messing around. Just follow the scent of freshly baked pastries and look for the store with the longest line on that stretch. If you\u2019re braving the queue, go ahead and snag some chiffon cakes and traditional biscuits for more snacks filled with nostalgia.<br \/>\n<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.loongfatt.com.sg\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Loong Fatt Tau Sar Piah<\/a>, 639 Balestier Road, Singapore 329922<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>3. Love Confectionery<\/h3>\n<p>It\u2019s buttercream cakes galore at Love Confectionery, which is beloved by residents nearby for its pandan cakes and egg tarts. Try the fluffy chocolate or almond sponge cakes for a trip back in time. They\u2019re soft and light, with just a dash of cream and old fashioned toppings like rainbow sprinkles and chocolate rice.<br \/>\n<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/loveconfectionerysg\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Love Confectionery<\/a>, #01-60, Blk 122, Bukit Merah Lane 1, Singapore 150122<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>4.

There\u2019s a reason why \u2013 the classic chocolate fudge chiffon cake is well-loved by generations of Singaporeans and has achieved almost cult status. Oh, and if you\u2019re looking for other flavours, you won\u2019t be let down by mocha cream chiffon, walnut torte, blueberry and lemon chiffon, or yuzu chiffon with jello frosting.<br \/>\n<em><a href=\"https:\/\/lanacakes-since1964.com\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Lana Cakes<\/a>, 36 Greenwood Avenue, Singapore 289239<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>5. Dona Manis Cake Shop<\/h3>\n<p>This hidden gem in Katong, previously run by a married couple, is well-known for its handmade pies and pastries. The buttery banana pie is filled with sweet bananas, fragrant coconut, and roasted almonds. Decadent? Definitely, but not too cloying so you can&#8217;t finish the slice. If you&#8217;re into chocolate, get your hands on the tarts, which come in a box of five.<br \/>\n<em><a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/dona.manis.cake.shop\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener nofollow\">Dona Manis Cake Shop<\/a>, #B1-93, Katong Shopping Centre, 865 Mountbatten Road, Singapore 437844<\/em><\/p>\n<h3>6.
