ASK A CHEF

Ever wondered why your cakes and bakes don't turn out the way you want to? Homegrown brand Humble Bakery is here to help. Run by founders Tan Zhuo Guan, Glenn Lai and their new baker-partner Xieng Hui, the bakery is at the top of its game with its artisanal scones, burnt cheesecakes, brownies and cookies. Its products have been so popular that it has expanded from an online bakery to a cafe at One Raffles Place. It has also upped the ante by introducing more specialty bakes such as loaf cakes and choux puffs. Read on as the experts share their top tips for the best bakes and cakes.
