The Fat Kid Bakery’s popular sourdough bomboloni now available at Amoy Street
The bustling Telok Ayer area is one of the most vibrant neighbourhoods in the CBD with no shortage of dining options. From fine dining and Korean BBQ to bakeries, hole-in-the-wall hideouts and casual but aesthetic cafes, foodies are spoilt for choice.
You probably don’t need another reason to explore the area, but if you really love bomboloni (stuffed Italian donuts), good news: The Fat Kid Bakery has just moved to Amoy Street!
Originally located at a secluded spot in Ang Mo Kio that was served only by a few bus services, The Fat Kid Bakery’s sourdough donuts were highly sought after during the height of the bomboloni craze in late 2021.
Cognisant of the fact that its location was not the most convenient, The Fat Kid Bakery decided to relocate to Amoy Street — just a few minutes from Telok Ayer MRT station — to make its delicious bakes more accessible to everyone.
The new outlet’s official grand opening date is Tuesday (April 18). To celebrate that, the first 100 people to take a photo in front of the cafe’s mural and tag the brand’s Instagram page will receive a free chocolate or vanilla bomboloni!
Of course, most of us wouldn’t be satisfied with just the simple chocolate or vanilla filling. Not when its airily soft sourdough bombos (from S$3.80) come in so many unique flavours.
Some bestsellers include the fragrant earl grey milk (S$4.50), rich and tangy blueberry cheesecake (S$5.20), and indulgent seasalt maple (S$5.50).
But if these aren’t unique enough for you, The Fat Kid Bakery also has a range of donuts with delectable savoury fillings. Yes, you heard that right — savoury donuts.
Mentaiko aficionados will no doubt be drawn to the alluring torched mentaiko (S$6.50), but the other umami-loaded options, such as the roasted garlic mascarpone (S6.50), spicy egg mayo (S$6.50), and sour cream and onion (S$6.50), will definitely attract a following, too.
Book a ride to its outlet.
