From chocolate cakes and brownie boxes to gluten-free bakes, there are plenty of types of birthday cakes in Singapore to choose from. Here’s just a selection of them, including cake delivery details and special offers!
Lucia The Brownie Bar for brownie boxes
Brownies make just as much of a statement as cake – especially when they’re this good. Celebrating its 10th year in business, Lucia The Brownie Bar has built a loyal following for its handcrafted brownie boxes, which make a fun alternative to a traditional celebration cake. The bite-sized brownies are easy to share, can be personalised with fondant birthday messages and candles, and are available to pre-order online for delivery or pick up from the brand’s outlets.
Each box of Lucia Brownies includes up to four flavours, from Triple Chocolate and Oreo to Salted Caramel and Biscoff Swirl, so there’s something for everyone. The brownies are baked fresh daily in small batches using preservative-free ingredients, with crackly tops and a rich, fudgy centre. Choose from three box sizes: a 16-piece box (from $22), a 36-piece box ($43) or a partyready 64-piece box ($78).
While brownies remain the star of the show, Lucia recently opened its first flagship store at Wisma Atria, where you’ll also find the return of the brand’s original cheesecakes, along with dessert tubs and chocolate chip cookie jars. You can also visit Lucia The Brownie Bar at Raffles City Shopping Centre and CIMB Plaza.
