Home and online bakeries are plentiful on our little island, but if you’re looking for halal options, those might require a little more trawling. We did the work, and here’s a guide to some Muslim-owned and halal home bakeries that’ll deliver fresh bakes, from irresistible tarts to bombolinis and Basque burnt cheesecakes to your doorstep.
This Muslim-owned business churns out bomboloni or mini stuffed doughnuts overflowing with both sweet and savoury cream fillings. Think salted caramel honeycomb, Biscoff cream, tiramisu, matcha and Nutella — and for the spice lovers, there’s a sambal option.
From time to time, you’ll also find other bakes like Tapak Kuda cake and cookies, based on availability.
A buzzy trend from a couple of years ago, the Basque burnt cheesecake is now a mainstay in many a dessert menu. And Paparch is one of the OGs in the scene, whipping up beautifully charred concoctions with a luscious gooey centre.
Apart from the original Basque burnt cheesecake, Paparch also has other flavours on rotation, from hojicha to banana and smoked berries. Keep an eye on its Instagram page for available slots to place your order.
It’s tarts galore at this Muslim-owned bakery, with the prettiest confections that make for both visual and palate-pleasing treats.
Check out its dreamy selection of flower-garnished bite-sized fruit tarts, as well as banoffee, chocolate, Biscoff cheese and choco crunch options. You can also order them in bulk for events or weddings.

It also offers everyday bakes like tartlets, loaf cakes, brownies cupcakes, and mouthwatering chocolate cake fondues (cake with chocolate sauce in middle). Order through the link on its Instagram page.
You might have heard of the NYC-style banana pudding, made popular by the city’s Magnolia Bakery, which first rose to fame with its appearance on Sex and The City.
Inspired by the dessert, local home-based vendor Okieco has created its own handcrafted version of the pudding here, offering pints layered with light vanilla creme, housemade vanilla wafers, and chunks of banana.
Go for the original, or savour iterations like Milo and Speculoos. You can also shop other bakes like chocolate chip cookies and banana bread.
Want some pies? Yes, yes we do.
No prizes for guessing what this Halal bakery specialises in. Handmade from scratch and with a buttery biscuit crust, crowd favourites are the Creme Brulee and Chocolate Ganache Salted Caramel pies.
