You won’t find run-of-the-mill croissants or turnovers at this bakeshop. At LUNA Patisserie’s newest outlet in Joo Chiat, it’s all about sweet-and-savoury baked treats sporting flavours like rhubarb, cassis, tofu, and more in unique combinations that are not only pleasing on the eye, they’re also delightfully surprisingly on the palate.
Aptly dubbed the New Frontiers, their fresh outlet-exclusive collection is made up of cakes and tarts such as the Tofu, which hides layers of moist vanilla sponge, vanilla mousse, and a smooth blend of hazelnut praline and silken tofu beneath its snow-white shell. There’s also the Rhubarb Strawberry which sets strawberry mousse and rhubarb strawberry compote atop a vanilla tart, and other highlights like the Cassis Chocolate, Caramel Banana Chocolate, and Strawberry Vanilla Panna Cotta.
Equally popular are LUNA’s classic signatures and crowd bestsellers which continue to headline the menu there. Do not miss out on their Orh Nee Cake and Matcha Opera, as well as the LUNA 2.0 – the quintessential chocolate indulgence featuring Valrhona Guanaja 70% chocolate mousse embellished with hazelnut sponge within a crunchy core of crushed hazelnuts, salted caramel, hazelnut dacquoise, and dark chocolate-coated feuilletine.
In time for the festive celebrations, head over now for a chance to enjoy their limited-edition Triple Chocolate Christmas Tree Cake, adorably shaped like a three-tiered Christmas tree, and Sweet Celebrations Christmas Set with specially designed exquisite treats like an Apricot Pear Bauble, Orange Cherry Pistachio, Hazelnut Paris-Brest, and Coffee Chestnut Tart.
The distinct patisserie occupies a sleek industrial-chic space, with an open-format look composed of raw concrete walls, exposed brickwork, and a textured stone-and-marble counter perfect for the ‘gram.
Front-of-house is also dominated by LUNA’s first specialty chocolate-making showroom, where customers get to peek into and follow the making of their popular chocolate bon bons.
