If you're looking to have a cheat day without feeling guilty about it, consider Everyday Bakes for their healthier cakes that are low in sugar and fat.
Their signature bakes include their chiffon cakes, brownies, and fruit tarts, which are all beautifully loaded with unprocessed, whole fresh fruit.
They are constantly coming up with new flavours, so don't be shy to request for their gluten-free, vegan, or diabetic-friendly options!

2. The Flour Baby

The Flour Baby specialises in super indulgent dark chocolate brownies and browned butter blondies. And they believe in letting the simplicity of using premium ingredients speak for themselves.
Not overly sweet but definitely very fudgy, the brownies are sinful on their own as a teatime snack, but you can add on a scoop of ice-cream for the best late-night treat ever.
If you can't decide between either brownies or blondies, they also let you get both flavours in a single tray.

3. Inez Bakes

Inez Bakes creates all kinds of sweet bites from cakes and cupcakes to cookies and brownies. Their lemon blueberry Bundt cake sounds downright delicious, but we think their yummy cupcakes would definitely pique your interest.
They have an amazing selection of flavours, but the best-selling ones are the Nutella red velvet (which a colleague has sworn by), raspberry vanilla, pandan gula Melaka, and salted caramel chocolate.

4. Bake N' Hustle

Homemade goodies just hit differently and you can tell that a slice of Bake N' Hustle's classic banana cakes will be the most comforting afternoon snack ever, paired with a hot cup of coffee or tea.
They sell their banana cakes plain or with walnuts and chocolate chips. But you can also get their soft walnut chocolate chip cookies if you're feeling especially peckish.
They deliver only on the weekends but all orders are baked on the day of delivery so that everyone gets to enjoy it fresh!
