Why no preservatives? Why no artificial colouring?

‘cuz that’s just how we roll… we roll the dough with our rolling, rolling pin.

And that’s how we roll… we roll the super-sticky hand-grated pineapples into little heart shapes, painstakingly & carefully sitting them atop the heart-shaped almond meal crusts.

Impress the significant other and the in-laws (and some out-laws) by being clever — with heart-shaped pineapple tarts.

Why not, right? This way you wouldn’t have to choose between Chinese New Year and Valentine’s.

The significant other will be pleased. The relos will be pleased. You will be hailed the Golden Child of the year. Hurrah!

One (heart) shape, two tub sizes, two exciting flavours.

Original Hearty Tarts: hand-grated pineapples, top-grade high protein flour, almond meal, sugar, butter, eggs, salt.
Small tub $28 / Large tub $39

Rum Hearty Tarts: same ingredients as Original, but with lots of rrrrrruummmmmm, for that little extra sumthin’ sumthin’ ya know wha’ I mean? *nudge nudge*
Small tub $39 / Large tub $49

We bake ‘em fresh just before you come collect them. So pre-order at least three days in advance, can?

the long-awaited Xmas Take Home Kit!

3 more days and it’d be Halloween … Yes, that kan-tang ( that’s potato for the local dialect-challenged ) holiday that nobody really celebrates.. Except for our makeup-loving, ghoul-worshipping slugphiles of course!

So come on down this Halloween , ie, 31 Oct Saturday and get some hellishly delicious treats from us!

(Rather) Scary muffins~ Petite Blueberry muffins topped with white chocolate and emblazoned with (rather) scary edible icing designs. We’ll pack each muffin in a little twist bag, so you can go Trick or Treatin” with them. Sweet! Every customer gets one on the house, while the scares last!

Check out our sexy Bloody Macho Mary ( non-alchoholic, with refreshing watermelon crush and spices).. Come in ghoulish costume and /or  make up and we’d give you one of these babies absolutely free! Mere mortals can purchase this devilish drink for $6.50 ( non alch) and $10.50 ( with premium Absolut vodka added)

So, come on down! BOOOO!!!

This National Day long weekend, in line with the govt’s call for a Kinder Singapore (no lah, no tacky discount on “everything that’s red & white”) here’s a special offer to share el Double Cheese Lava Nachos on the cheap!

Although, on closer look, it does look kinda red & white hor? Kind of lah. Anyhoo, we’ll get to the cheap part later.

How’s this in line with the S’pore Kindness Movement, you ask?

Hello, is el muchos muchos nachos! Look at the size of this baby & the amount of cheese heaped on it – you can’t possibly finish it all by yourself lah you greedy selfish oaf!! MUST SHARE WITH FRIENDS OK?!

So yeah, be kind & share & you know what – we’re giving a $4.40 discount on every Double Cheese Lava Nachos purchased (because s’pore is turning 44 this year, nyahaha!) BUT there’s a big cheesy catch here:

You need a super-patriotic coupon code.

How to obtain said coupon code? 2 easy steps.

1. Follow us on Twitter.

2. Demand the coupon code from our Twitterslug!

~ that’s all. Easy peasy. ~
