Brod and Paj

Brod & Paj is a plant-based bakery specialising in vegan-friendly cinnamon rolls. They use only clean and simple ingredients, no artificial colouring and flavouring, and 50% less sugar.

Alia started her Instagram account @gingercooksfavbooks during the Circuit breaker last year to share simple healthy recipes and her gardening experience to grow the community in her neighbourhood for trading homegrown produce. One day, she made vegan cinnamon roles, posted it on her Insta feed, and started getting inquiries from family and friends. That’s how @brodandpaj was founded.

The cinnamon rolls are made using organic Ceylon cinnamon, their signature vegan-friendly dough (also used in most of their other pastries), and slathered with a smooth cashew frosting, creating a decadent experience. Being less sinful, these are kid-friendly too!

Also on offer are savoury pies such as Mushroom Pot Pie and Potato “Egg” Pie made with tofu as well as sweet pies including Spiced Apple Pie and Chocolate Banana Pie.

Check out their Instagram for more information and order online.

Mrs Plump’s Superfood Ice Cream

Owning an ice cream shop has always been a dream for Mia Kusen, the founder of Mrs Plump’s Ice Cream. The idea of superfood ice creams came as a complete accident when Mrs Plump’s twin boys were infected with Hand, Foot and Mouth Disease. The then toddlers were only able to eat ice cream for an entire week due to mouth ulcers. Struggling to find any nutritious ice cream on the market, she decided to create her own!

The most popular flavour - Chocolate Kale - was Mrs Plump’s first creation whereby dates were used to replace sugar and ground-up dehydrated kale was added to ensure her boys got their daily dose of greens.

The Superfood Ice Cream Range also consists of other superfood goodness such as Banana Dates, Strawberry Yoghurt, Vanilla Chia, and Superblues (made with blueberries and blue pea flowers). Loved by adults and children alike, these healthier ice creams are nutrient-rich with added vitamins, minerals and fibre. They are naturally sweetened with fruit, dates and organic agave. No refined sugar, dextrose, maltodextrin, corn syrup or any highly processed sweeteners are used at all.

These guilt-free premium treats are handcrafted locally in small batches. The range has since expanded to include dairy-free ice creams, vegan ice creams and popsicles, and even keto-friendly ice creams. It’s time to indulge on cheat day too!

Exclusively for VL readers, use the code “VL20%OFF” for first-time customers (valid until 30 September 2021 for purchases over S$30, excludes delivery fee).

Mei Mei Bakes

Seeing her mom bake since she was young, Dharshy developed a passion for baking. From baking birthday cakes to Christmas goodies, her favourite bakes from her mom are Cinnamon Rolls. So, in April 2021 she started Mei Mei Bakes, a nickname given to her at home.

Dharshy calls them "Ugly Cinnamon Rolls" because, let’s face it, they are not that pretty. But not to worry, the beauty is in the taste!

Currently, Mei Mei Bakes has 2 items on the menu - Ugly Cinnamon Roll Pecan (S$19) and Ugly Cinnamon Roll Original (S$15). The Pecan is a little richer with a nutty caramel flavour while the Original is a classic. Both are paired well with Cream Cheese Swoop ($3) and come in an 8-inch tray. The Original comes in 7 pieces while the Pecan comes in 6 pieces.

With 2 trays ordered, you can enjoy S$2 off! There’s free delivery for orders above S$80. Otherwise, islandwide delivery is S$10.

Order via WhatsApp (+65) 9225 1220 or DM on Instagram.

Cel’s Cheesecake Brownies

Baking you the best of both worlds, Celina offers chocolate and cheese in every bite of her cheesecake brownies. A communications professional by day and a baker by night, Celina has always had an interest in trying out new recipes. While experimenting, she came across a recipe on cheesecake brownies and she loved the combination. She then started making different flavour combinations and perfected her cheesecake brownies, ensuring they can be enjoyed without being overly sweet.

As the name suggests, she specialises in one type of bake – cheesecake brownies - essentially a layer of decadent creamy cheese over a layer of dark chocolate brownies. Flavours include Classic, Red Velvet, Oreo, Nutella, Mixed Berries, Earl Grey Almond, Match White Chocolate, and newly launched Coffee Cheesecake Brownies. Mix two flavours and you get a cute checkerboard! During festive seasons, she also offers seasonal favours such as Bailey's chocolate cheesecake brownies.

The cheesecake brownies are available in regular boxes of 36 bite-sized pieces or small boxes of 16 pieces. Hit her up for birthdays, gatherings, special occasions like Teacher’s Day, as well as baby’s first month and corporate orders to enjoy customised hand-drawn designs.

Make your order via DM on Instagram or Facebook at least 3 days in advance.
