Top 7 Birthday Cake Shops in Singapore That Might Just Outshine the Birthday Celebrant

For my birthday this year, all I wanted was that viral chocolate vintage heart-shaped cake. I even told my partner how much I loved it and sent him a bunch of TikToks and screenshots. 

So when my birthday rolled around and I unwrapped… a circular carrot cake, I couldn’t hide the disappointment. 

Don’t get me wrong—carrot cake is great. But it wasn’t what I asked for. After more than a year together, I kind of expected more. 

The following year, I decided to take matters into my own hands. I asked everyone (friends, family, even acquaintances) where to find the best birthday cakes in Singapore. 

In the end, I found more than just one good option—and now I’m sharing the best of them. Here are a few birthday cake shops in Singapore that won’t let you down.

1. Lady M @ Orchard Central

Website: https://www.ladym.com.sg/
Address: 181 Orchard Road #01-27 & #02-07 Orchard Central
Phone: +65 6509 3672
Hours: Daily – 11 AM to 10 PM
Must-order: Mille Crêpes

Lady M is a luxury patisserie with a reputation that stretches all the way from New York to Singapore. 

Known for their crepes, this shop’s cakes are like edible works of art, with their intricate layers and delicate flavours. Though the price tag may be a bit hefty, the quality makes it all worth it.

Lady M’s signature Mille Crêpes is the star of the show. Each slice features 20 paper-thin handmade crepes layered with light pastry cream. 

The result is a beautifully balanced dessert, with the crepes and cream complementing each other. It’s a far cry from the usual dense, overly sweet cakes you find elsewhere.

I also tried a couple of their other offerings. The Pistachio Mille Crêpe was quite a unique twist. Its nutty flavour combined with the smooth cream was refreshing, making it a hit with the regulars.

Pro Tip: Choose early morning delivery slots to avoid delays during peak hours.

2. Cedele

Website: http://www.cedele.com/
Address: 1 Vista Exchange Green, #01-18/19 The Star Vista
Phone: +65 6734 0763
Hours: Daily – 10 AM to 9 PM
Must-order: Carrot Walnut

Part of a homegrown chain that started in 1997, Cedele is known for their real ingredients, honest baking, and the belief that food should nourish both body and soul. 

Their commitment to unrefined sugars and no artificial additives shines through in everything from soups to pastries.

Their cakes alone have built a bit of a fan base, especially the Carrot Walnut, which layers just the right amount of sweet cream cheese between a moist, spiced sponge and generous chunks of real walnut. 

I personally keep coming back for the Matcha Chocolate Slice—balancing earthy green tea with rich cocoa in a way that doesn’t overwhelm the palate.

It’s not all just sweets, though. You’ll find soups, sandwiches, and brunch-style mains made from fresh ingredients and served in portions big enough for a proper lunch. 

Pro Tip: If you’re after a classic flavour, go for their Red Velvet Cake. It’s layered with tangy cream cheese frosting and finished with red crumbs on top.

3. Whyzee

Website: https://whyzee.com.sg/
Address: 11 Sin Ming Road Thomson V, Two, #01-30
Phone: +65 9773 2434
Hours: Daily – 10 AM to 6 PM
Must-order: Lavender Earl Grey Cake

Whyzee was launched in 2017 by a couple with a shared sweet tooth and a knack for healthier baking. They’ve quickly become one of Singapore’s most reliable go-tos for last-minute celebrations. 

This shop’s mission is to serve up fresh, artisanal cakes that focus on indulgence and wellness, with a growing menu of eggless and even vegan options.

One of the best examples of that balance is the eggless Triple Dark Chocolate Cake. Made with coconut cream and zero dairy, it’s surprisingly moist and full-bodied, even without the usual butter and eggs.

Then there are the lighter picks, like the Lavender Earl Grey Cake. I’ve heard from the bakers that this one’s all about smooth mousse textures and delicate tea notes.

On top of all that, this online cake shop’s one-hour express delivery is a game-changer. It has saved more than a few parties from being cakeless. 

Pro Tip: Ask if the cake is freezer-friendly so you can keep leftovers for longer.

4. Edith Patisserie

Website: http://www.edithpatisserie.com/
Address: 275 Outram Road
Phone: +65 6443 7150
Hours: Daily – 10 AM to 7 PM
Must-order: Cookie Dough Speculoos Chocolate Cake

Edith Patisserie has been crafting small-batch bakes that are as delectable as they are photogenic. 

They’re known not just for their layered cakes and soft sponges, but also for values-driven work. Each order supports their inclusive hiring of individuals with special needs and female caregivers. 

And while the cakes may come dressed in pastels, florals, or clean lines, there’s a lot more substance behind the sweetness. I say this because of the Cookie Dough Speculoos Chocolate Cake, which is one of their top sellers for a reason. 

Rich layers of chocolate sponge, cookie dough (eggless and safe to eat), and a speculoos spread make it ideal for parties where you’re not sure who likes what—because honestly, everyone ends up liking it. 

Another highlight for me is their Black Forest Cake, packed with liqueur-soaked cherries and named one of the best in Singapore!

5. Cakebar

Website: http://cakebar.com.sg/
Address: 7 Holland Village Wy, #02-21 One
Phone: +65 9638 0010
Hours: Daily – 10 AM to 9 PM
Must-order: Kori Lemon Cake

Small, pastel-toned, and softly lit, Cakebar invites you in with their colourful lineup of cakes behind the counter. While the space itself is charming, it’s the flavours—playful and surprisingly complex—that leave a lasting impression.

Their cakes reflect a mix of French and Japanese influences, with amazing textures and elegant finishes. 

I’ve been told that one of the most popular creations is the Caramel Mixed Nuts Beer Cake, made with Guinness-infused chocolate sponge and topped with salted caramel mousse. 

The crunch of caramelised nuts against the soft, boozy base makes each bite more interesting than the last.

If you’re after something refreshing, the Kori Lemon is worth keeping in the freezer. Customers love that it’s made with real lemon juice and curd on a white chocolate almond base; it’s creamy and tangy with a sorbet-like bite. 

Pro Tip: Let the cake thaw for a few minutes before eating—it turns extra creamy.

6. Cake Avenue

Website: http://www.cakeavenue.com/
Address: 33 Lor Kilat, #01-01 Kilat Centre
Phone: +65 6877 9008
Hours: 

  • Monday – Closed
  • Tuesday to Saturday – 10 AM to 7 PM
  • Sunday – 10 AM to 5 PM

Must-order: Mango Sensation

For over two decades, Cake Avenue has been one of Singapore’s most dependable and delightful cake shops, especially for families. 

This small e-commerce bakery has grown into a halal-certified bakehouse and cosy café, popular for its hassle-free ordering, reliable delivery, and wildly creative themed cakes. 

A reason why people keep returning to Cake Avenue is how friendly the service is. Patrons regularly mention the staff, whose patient and considerate approach to custom cakes has turned one-off requests into years-long relationships. 

Speaking of customising, what I found so ridiculous was that you can order any theme at all. I mean, it could be a cartoon your kid saw once in passing, a castle, or even a steak-themed cake!

But if you want a pre-made cake already, I suggest the Mango Sensation. It pairs vanilla sponge with mousse and real, refreshing mango chunks.

Pro Tip: Pre-order your cake at least 3–5 days in advance, especially for custom designs.

7. Four Leaves

Website: https://fourleaves.com.sg/
Address: 4 Tampines Central 5, #B1 – 22 Tampines Mall
Phone: +65 6788 5056
Hours: Daily – 10 AM to 9:30 PM
Must-order: Strawberry Shortcake

This long-running Japanese-inspired bakery has been part of Singapore’s food landscape since 1981, starting from a humble outlet on Nutmeg Road. 

Today, Four Leaves has grown into a widespread chain, known for its consistent quality and affordable prices. 

Their shelves are always stocked with soft breads, sweet rolls, and savoury pastries that rotate throughout the year.

Their bakes reflect careful attention to detail, from the use of premium Japanese flour to the soft, moist sponge found in their signature Strawberry Shortcake. This famous treat layers an airy vanilla sponge with fresh strawberries and 100% dairy cream. 

I also came across a seasonal Apple and Rum Fruit Cake, which had a generous filling of caramelised apple and raisins. It was a rich, boozy dessert that came pre-cut and chilled.

Pro Tip: Ask if they offer free candles or a cake topper. They usually include them if you make a request.
