Combining thin crepes, light pastry cream and other fillings, mille crepe cakes are a big hit among Singaporeans. While different versions of the dessert have existed for centuries, the modern mille crepe cake is said to have been invented by Emy Wada in Japan around 1985.

You’ll find various places in the city-state – from New York export Lady M to homegrown bakeries – plying the sweet treat in flavours including crowd-favourite chocolate, Japanese-influenced matcha, fruity mango and more. Here are some of our picks.
