These Cake Shops On Our #RadarList Are Transforming The Way We Look At Cakes

Cake, ah, what a marvellous creation. Cloud-like sponges and melt-in-your-mouth frosting certainly do make for a perfect dessert. We just can’t get enough. 

Most of the time, classics like red velvet cake, victoria sponge cake, carrot cake and the dark and delicious brownie get the job done, but after years of having the same flavours over and over, they just don’t cut it anymore. Hence, every foodie with a massive sweet tooth is going crazy for the below online bakers, who offer innovative cakes, whether via ultra-creative designs, out-of-this-world flavours, or both.

She is bringing back Lambeth style cakes with major vintage vibes and wow-worthy spins mimicking vintage objects. Think grandma tissue box cake, flower vase cake and even box cake that actually opens up like a box. Brilliant.

Amy Yip’s cakes exude a sense of calm, strength as well as playfulness – very much like a painting which is also where she usually get inspired from, for the colour schemes and patterns of her cakes.

If you’re one of those people who likes munching on cake with a side of something boozy, go for their Moët & Chandon or Soju Cake. But for something cutesy and alcohol-free, opt for their colourful cake designs that look like they are out of a Disney movie scene.
