Jane’s Cake Station

265 Jalan Kayu (Map) Mon – Sat: 12pm – 6pm, Sun: 12pm – 4pm Wed

Her little shop looks nothing like the fancy designer cake shops of this century, just a non- event shopfront looking like someone's living room with a huge freezer. No cakes visible and totally unattractive but make no bones about this- every cake you do or don't see is already pre-ordered. Ms Jane Lim still makes her stunningly moist chocolate cakes by hand in her little “aunty kitchen”, which looks like a typical HDB kitchen, out in the back with a humble oven. “I still use premium Belgium chocolate”, she declares. The beauty in her cake is the moisture (perfect) and density (does not make you think it’s too thick or thin and teasingly wobbly). She is generous with the chocolate and the best part is the touch of sea salt that enhances that whammy sense of chocolatey-ness in that not-too-sweet cake.
