Uncle Lee’s Confectionery (\u674e\u53d4\u53d4\u9762\u5305\u897f\u679c\u5e97) is a popular confectionery located along Jalan Pisang in Kampong Glam. It offers a number of old-school cakes, including kaya-pandan<\/em> cake, durian cake, banana cake, etc, and buttercream cakes with various toppings and flavours. Each cake is about 6 inches in diameter. Other pastries include cookies, custard puffs, etc.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Uncle Lee’s highly-recommended Kaya Cake emits a nice pandan<\/em>-coconut aroma when the box is opened. The 6-inch cake is sandwiched with fluffy pandan<\/em>-flavoured sponge cakes between thick layers of pandan kaya<\/em>, which has soft jelly-like texture. Overall, the cake has a nice aroma, mildly sweet, non-greasy and non-cloying. Half a cake can be finished without realising it.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Note: It is advisable to order the cake online or go to the shop as early as possible to buy it. The popular kaya<\/em> cake sells out fast, even on weekdays.<\/p>\n\n\n\n The Peanut Buttercream Cake, with vanilla flavour, has soft fluffy cake coated with a layer of light vanilla-flavoured buttercream and topped with crunchy crushed peanuts. The cake has a nice vanilla and peanut aroma, very low sweetness too and the light cream does not give a cloying aftertaste. This is a must to try too.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Similar to the kaya<\/em> cake, the newly launched Yam Cake has thick layers of creamy yam paste sandwiched with soft fluffy cakes. The yam cake has a soft texture with nice yam flavour and mild sweetness too. It is so light that I finished nearly half the cake on the first day. Unlike the other cakes that can be stored in the fridge for up to 4 days, the yam cake should be consumed within 2 days.<\/p>\n\n\n\n Great news! Uncle Lee’s Confectionery setups pop-up booths in shopping malls around Singapore too. Do check their Facebook or Instagram<\/a> to see where their booths will be next \u2014 it beats running all the way to their shop in Kampong Glam when one of those booths just popped-up in your neighbourhood.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
