As they always say – what celebration is complete without a cake? This Mother’s Day, as we honour one of the greatest loves of them all, we’ve put together a list of local bakeries to hunt for your Mother’s Day cake.
(Psst… for those who don’t yet know, the occasion falls on 8 May. So you’ve still got about a week to get your orders in!)
1. Zee and Elle
This year, Zee & Elle’s Mother’s Day cake series (from $58) follows a garden series theme – so you can expect floral fondants and dainty décor. If your family isn’t very much into cakes, they also have a tart alternative.
To top off your cakes, they are also throwing in a flower bouquet bundle package, starting at $115 for both the tart and bouquet!
Price: From $58

2. Janice Wong
Any chocolate fanatic must have heard of Janice Wong. If your mum is one of them, this Mother’s Day cake may just be something right up her alley.
This year, Janice Wong’s collection features 2 unique treats – tulip chocolate bon bons ($50) in 5 seasonal flavours and a pink guava and hazelnut cake ($78). You can choose to top the celebration off with a bottle of wine for the cake, or a bouquet of flowers for the bon bons.
Price: From $50

3. Baker’s Brew
For a pink themed Mother’s day cake setup, you might want to check out Baker’s Brew for their cakes and cupcakes.
Their Mother’s Day cake is made with layers of rose mousse scream and fresh raspberry compote, topped off with gold flakes and macarons ($68.80). If you find cakes a little too filling, opt for their cupcakes ($39.80 for a box of 6) which come in berries, lychee mango and vanilla flavours!
Can’t decide? Get both for $108!

5. Elijah Pies
For another alternative pie option, another must-try is Elijah Pies. While their designs are minimalistic, they are nothing short of an edible yummy artwork (explains their popularity among the IG masses these days!)
Here, they offer flavours such as matcha, speculoos hojicha, wild berry lavender and earl grey rose. If your mama loves something more savoury, they also have black truffle mash and scallop chowder.
Price: From $47 for a pie

8. Here for Cakes
If a huge Mother’s day cake is not what you’re looking for, Here for Cakes does offer other elegant alternatives for you in pastel hues.

Perhaps a dessert side table? The possibilities are endless!
