Katong I12 previously known as Katong Mall to some of us 80s/90s people has upgraded their carpark and there's usually many lots there (except weekends) , make sure you enter by East Coast Road, and not the TGIF side, the guards will re-route you or tell you no entry. There's a nice, quiet and clean bakery in Katong 112 where there's a trade mark fish tank which you can gaze into. We ordered a Cookies and Cream Cheese Cake. The cake was nice and creamy, the chocolate pieces on top was a nice tou

Macaroons are such sweet lovely treats that one would not get tired of(at least i do not!)Tried the raspberry chocolate macaroons that were not too bad but i felt that the macaroon shells were a little soggy and not as crispy as they should have been. the yuzu flavoured macaroon has a unique taste to it and i love the tanginess of the yuzu that was sandwiched between the macaroon shells.

One of the better cake shops with a wide variety of flavours; they constantly come up with new creations as well, which is great for regular patrons like myself. Green tea cheesecake is good, rich in taste of cheese, but not overly so that one would find it too "jelat" after a few mouthfuls. Passionfruit mango cheesecake is one of the first original flavours, and worth a try.

I have always loved coming to Katong Mall on weekdays as the cafe's appear to be pretty empty compared to most places. I stumbled upon Obolo that faithful day. "Obolo" actually means "The Cake" in portuguese. I was attracted by the stunning array of colors from the french styled macaroons that were positioned on the shelves. They all looked so yummy!! I could not resist but get myself a couple. I was then told by staff that it would be cheaper to get a small box which contained 6 macaroons. As I

I was down at 112 Katong last weekend to check out the new shopping mall in the east. Located at the basement of the mall is Obolo which means "the cake" in Portuguese. Obolo is behind the inspiring story of 2 architecture graduates Mac Woo & June Lee baking from homes to forming an online patisserie specializing in gourmet cheesecakes and chocolate cakes. As the flagship patisserie cafe under Obolo’s repertoire of F&B lifestyle concepts, Obolo features a 44-seater open-concept cafe spa

After the last review. Been craving to eat it again and really missed the taste of Champagne Macaron and went back to 112 Katong for more of this expensive Macaron. Bought 3 of it and was thinking to bring home to consume but the temptation was overwhelming and ate 3 of it while shopping. It taste as usual great. Due to today is monday the crowd are low and enviroment are cosy it would be a best time for a group to sit and chat there and comsume this wonder macaron.

I love macaroons. But I love them even better when they are just shells alone. This is because the filling makes the macaroon really sweet. Macaroons are the best when they come in shells only.I was walking in I12 Katong and I passed this shop. The label caught my eye. "Macaroon shells" it said. Immediately, my mum and I stopped to take a look and without hesitation, my mum bought a packet. It costed only $1.50. We bought the pack that contained the rose and macadamia flavour. In the car, we ope

I am so into macaron and tried many place macaron. And at least found one of my best ever tried macaron till date. The 'Champagne Macaron' by Obolo and is rather ex abit. But the taste of the champagne are well made and once put into the mouth, it completely cover my tastebud with the sweetness of the champagne. It had a similar taste as the 'Royce champagne nama chocolate' . Those who are fan of macaron must really really try this. Perfect.

There are lots of fanciful cakes and macarons display at Obolo. You will definitely stop for a look while bypassing the shop. My first time trying on their macaroons and indeed it was fantastic! Comparable to Cedele and Antoinette ones in fact. The outer crust is thin and crisp while the inner layers are soft and chewy. It simply melts in your mouth upon chewing! Yummy! The one i'm holding up is Milk Chocolate Macadamia macaron between.
