I have been wanting to buy the breads from Duke Bakery since the longest time and I was really excited to know that there is an outlet at Suntec City. The outlet is quite brightly lit (as compared to the Bedok and Citylink outlet) and when I was there, there are lots of varieties of bread as well as samples. I tried quite a few, and in the end decided to go for this Swiss Chocolate bread. It is a huge dome shaped bread and it is quite heavy carrying it around. I have already ate one quarter of i

I have been wanting to buy the breads from Duke Bakery since the longest time and I was really excited to know that there is an outlet at Suntec City. The outlet is quite brightly lit (as compared to the Bedok and Citylink outlet) and when I was there, there are lots of varieties of bread as well as samples. I tried quite a few, and in the end decided to go for this Swiss Chocolate bread. It is a huge dome shaped bread and it is quite heavy carrying it around. I have already ate one quarter of it before remembering to take the photo. The bread has chocolate and walnut bits in it, and although there is no filling inside the bread, it is quite flavourful on its own. I can just eat it plain without having to spread anything on the bread. Even though the bread is more expensive, but given the larger portion and ingredients used, it is worth the money.

    Fermented Pineapple

    What is Fermented Pineapple?Is it when you left the cut pineapple in the fridge for days that bubbles started to form on the syrup & the fruit began to taste almost wine-like? Does the name of this bread suggests that the pineapple has been fermented (as mentioned) before baking into the bread? Nah...maybe not...My humble opinion:Ripe pineapple is sweet, low in calories & full of vitamins. Nobody would ever overeat pineapple because of the acidic nature.

    What is Fermented Pineapple?
    Is it when you left the cut pineapple in the fridge for days that bubbles started to form on the syrup & the fruit began to taste almost wine-like?

    Does the name of this bread suggests that the pineapple has been fermented (as mentioned) before baking into the bread? Nah...maybe not...


    My humble opinion:
    Ripe pineapple is sweet, low in calories & full of vitamins. Nobody would ever overeat pineapple because of the acidic nature. It enhances the monotonous flavor of any food, like cookies, tarts, cocktails & even our uniquely Singaporean dish, Rojak!
    What is Rojak without pineapple?!

     This is the first time that I tasted bread filled with loads of pineapple & walnuts inside.


    The bread is fluffy but it is also firm enough to hold the many chunky pieces of fruits & nuts & prevented them from sinking to the bottom. The pineapple tasted sweet (as if candied) & juicy while the walnut adds crunch...this combination creates an interesting texture to the soft loaf. Making every bite very enticing & anticipating. It kept me wishing the next bite has both the pineapple & the walnut.


    Verdict:


    PS: Just found out that they had added red wine. No wonder the pineapple is reddish!

    Mmm...Nice...Very nice...

      We usually come to Bedok Point for great Body Spa or Foot Reflexology sessions. Yesterday's trip was to shop for our daughter's sunglasses & I, to redeem a free haircut.So hubby & daughter went shopping while I was having my hair done. When we finally meet up, he told me of a bakery with very generous chunky sampling pieces. I was curious to find out how generous could any shop offer in this very expensive shoppers' & foodists' paradise named Singapore?!

      So he led me down to the Ground Floor. The bakery was located just next to the escalator & it was already filled with a sizable crowd. We went closer to take a look.
      The store was rather small but it was clean. There were 2 rows of shelves leaning back-to-back with only 1 level of trays where the breads were showcased. The customer traffic was flowing oneway, towards the cashier counter (a very simple & effective retail strategy).
      At the outer corner of the counter, a young lady was busy cutting up chuncky pieces of bread & refilling up the sampling trays. There were 2 staff at the cashier counter but only 1 cash register. One young lady staff was helping to slice the bread (upon customer's request) & bagging them up while the other attended to the customers at the cash register. All the staffs were wearing gloves.

       We managed to blend into the traffic but to my horror...I saw people picking up the chunky samples with their bare fingers! Gosh...I seriously thought the owner should consider spending a little more & to stick a toothpick into each chunky sample pieces (even the huge supermarkets do that, nowadays)...

      After trying out a few varieties, we finally settled to have the Magic Stick Cheese & the French Garlic Soft Bread. The Magic Stick Cheese (in the tray) looked as if there were cubes of cheese embedded into the loaves while the French Garlic Soft Bread was quite plain looking with only herb-powder baked onto the loaves.

       We didn't have time to settle down & to enjoy the breads till it was supper time. Both hubby & I were very surprised to find the mountainful of cubed cheese inside our loaf!

       The bread itself tasted soft, chewy & springy (QQ) at the same time.
      I considered myself very choosy with bread but I could simply ate this on its own!
      Discerning eaters would be able to pick up the subtle sweetness and would also conclude that the bread must have been meticulously hand-baked with the finest & freshest ingredients.

      The cubed cheese were soft & did not stick to my teeth at all. Hmm...wondered if that was how this loaf was named, the "Magic Stick Cheese"...

      Verdict:

      Hubby & I decided that we must get their Membership Card today!
      Would you join us?
