When I saw the name (without the address), Crown Bakery & Cafe, I kind of suspected that it will be located at Crown Centre at Bukit Timah. And I was right.

Crown Bakery & Cafe offers a range of naturally fermented bread. And they pride themselves against no additional colourings, flavourings, chemical and preservatives. Since it is both a bakery and cafe, it offers both dine-in and takeaway options.

There are few indoor seating, which I prefer. Mainly were outdoors. I like the colour theme of the cafe; very soothing.

They offer three selections on their Brunch Menu; Crown’s Breakfast, The Queen’s Eggs Ben and Earl Pear Bread Budding. The cafe also offer waffles as part of their menu.

Though the menu was small, I was alone at Crown Bakery & Cafe so I couldn’t order all for trying. I wish I could.

 

Earl Pear Bread Pudding

I limited myself to the Earl Pear Bread Pudding. The serving was considerably small. It would be a good choice of dessert for sharing after the mains.

The Bread Pudding has a nice cinnamon fragrance, slight Earl Grey flavour (I wish it was stronger) and creamy pudding with slight crispy and yet fluffy bread.

 

Cappuccino

I paired it off with Cappuccino. The coffee was decent. It was a cup of medium body and low acidity cuppa. Some spice and tea flavour was noted.

After my lunch, I can’t have enough of Crown Bakery & Cafe bake. So I decided to get more home for sharing. As everything on the shelves look so attractive. I ended up getting more than enough for the family.

 

Earl Grey Cashew Brioche, Choco Berry Imperial Seal, 27-Layer Croissant

I am attracted to anything that uses Earl Grey as an ingredient. So I got the Earl G Cashew Brioche

When I saw the Choco Berry Imperial Seal, it reminded me of the Cube from Asanoya Bakery. And I got one to try too.

The croissant was termed 27-Layer Croissant, this got me curious.

All were good.

 

Hainanese Chicken Bread

The Hainanese Chicken Bread is the Crown Bakery & Cafe Signature item. Lots of ingredients from chicken soup to chicken thigh to garlic to shallots were added.

The taste was indeed fragrance and bread was soft and fluffy with a crispy crust. It was a shame that the chicken meat in the bread were too tough.

Interestingly, there was a Chicken Rice Chilli dip. Dipping the bread into the chilli provides another experience.

 

Ciabata

I was so excited to spot my favourite Olive bread, Three Olive Ciabata.

The ciabata was chewy with a crusty outer which we enjoyed.

This is a fluffy dark chocolate bread. It was full of chocolate goodness.
