Cakes Literally is also along Owen Road, near Farrer Park MRT station with P. Bistro and Letoile Cafe as her neighbours. I passed by Cakes Literally yesterday when I was going to P. Bistro and today I was at Cakes Literally.
I was having lunch with my aunt and Dad and was thinking where to go after lunch with an intention of buying my aunt a cake to celebrate her birthday in advance as we will not be in town during her birthday week. I will be travelling for work. And so I thought of Cakes Literally. An opportunity for me to try their cakes and at the same time to give my aunt a treat. Good reasons aren’t these.
The cafe feels homely and as it was a quiet Saturday at the cafe so it was great to hang around and chat.
The cakes feel, look and tasted very homemade, like the cafe.
Cakes Literally focused only on cakes and she baked a wide range. There are some interesting cakes which I noted on the menu such as Avocado Pound Cake. There are some cakes with black sesame too, sounds interesting.
My aunt chose the Orange Almond cake while I have the Lemon Tart. The Orange Almond cake has a tangy orange flavour and lots of ground almonds in the cake, very nutty. Good for those who like nuts. This cake is gluten free and no oil added, very healthy too, for the health conscious.
As for the Lemon Tart, it is more sourish. It tasted creamy and has a thin tart base. They served great coffee and tea too.
We have a great Saturday afternoon at Cakes Literally; enjoying delicious cakes, gourmet coffee and tea and most importantly, spending quality time with family ♡.
