Pretty & Scrumptious ~ LeGem Patisserie

Posted on by ShenWendys

Hey Lovelies!

Was craving for madeleines and chance upon LeGem Patisserie. Sometimes I think Instagram can read my mind (haha).

LeGem Patisserie freshly baked modern madeleines comes with an assortment of unique flavours.

Chocolate hazelnut ~ glazed with a layer of chocolate, sprinkled with a generous serving of nuts and filled with whole nuts too!

Nuts about you

Black Sesame ~ aromatic and had a deep nutty flavour.

Sesame everywhere

Fig with Cheese ~ savoury and sweet a perfect match.


Triple Chocolate ~ has an intense chocolate flavour but not too sweet.

Thick chocolate coat is simply divine

Kaya with coconut ~ uniquely Singaporean style topped with desiccated coconut.

Glistening golden brown

Matcha With yuzu ~ refreshing twist of zesty citrus yuzu and an earthy kick of matcha goes very well with a cuppa sencha green tea.

Perfect combi

Strawberry with ruby chocolate ~ a tension of fresh berry fruitiness and luscious smoothness like yoghurt.

Pretty in pink

Lemon ~ a decidedly tangy note but not too sour.

Sugar coat & lemon peels

Earl Grey ~ wonderful in smell and delicious in taste.

Evergreen classic

The dear little cakes are tenderly moist, soft and spongy and definitely does not have the acrid after taste of baking powder.

I can’t decide which is my favourite cause all are so yummy! Melts in your mouth…makes you going back for more and I sure did (this is my second purchase before I wrote this). I highly recommend you to try! LeGem Patisserie madeleines are not only scrumptious but also a feast to the eyes!

To me what makes LeGem Patisserie stands out is that she takes the effort to pen a note which adds a personal touch.

Handwritten cards are so rare these days

Thank you for reading, it’s time for tea!

Home Bakery – Mar_velicious Patisseries

Hey Lovelies!

Today I want to share about my new found find – Mar_velicious Patisseries a home bakery founded by two best friends Jet and Amirah with whom I got acquainted by chance.

My first encounter was their brownies and its simply love at first bite! The texture was perfect- moist and yet not too soft, chocolate melts running on the sides but wasn’t overly sweet best paired with a scoop of rum & raisin ice cream making it simply divine.

Their sea salt chocolate chip cookies are equally yummy – sweet and savory at the same time. Highly addictive I must say, can’t just stop at just one you will want more. Their peppermint chocolate chip cookies are refreshing – don’t worry the peppermint isn’t overpowering.

oh guess what the do Ondeh-Ondeh cake too!! I was so over the moon when I found out they make that. The smell of pandan is so fragrant, texture of the sponge is dense and moist, drizzles of gula melaka seals the deal.

What I really appreciate most about Mar_velicious Patisseries is having the option to customize the sweetness of the bakes to my preference. Don’t get me wrong I have a sweet tooth and desserts are important to me a meal is never complete without desserts. But perhaps with age I prefer low sugar bakes.

There are so many reasons to chose home bakeries over commercial ones – personalized, creative, the use of quality ingredients and most importantly its baked with passion and love.
