10 Best Muffins In Singapore From $0.70, Including Hawker Bakeries

Whether it’s breakfast, a midday treat, or a late-night supper snack, there’s something comforting about biting into a warm muffin at any time of the day.

With their soft, cake-like texture and endless variety of sweet and savoury flavours, it’s always useful to know where to find a good muffin. From classic blueberry muffins to rich double chocolate bakes, we’ve rounded up the 10 best bakeries for muffins in Singapore.

  • 1. AJ Delights

Founded by husband-and-wife duo Amy and Jeremy, who left their full-time jobs to pursue their culinary passions, AJ Delights was established in 2012 and quickly became a cult favourite among muffin lovers. They currently operate two outlets—their original location at Alexandra Village Food Centre and another at Fusionopolis in One-north—and have found success with their German-style streusel muffins, distinguished by their buttery, crumbly topping, alongside a selection of close to 30 flavours.

Some of the best-selling flavours include their Cookies and Cream ($3.40), Chocolate Streusel ($3.40), Raspberry Streusel ($3.95), and Green Tea Almond ($3.40). Each muffin is generously sized and satisfyingly hefty, making it substantial enough to keep you full—it could even double as a light meal!

  • 2. Uggli Muffins

True to its name, Uggli Muffins‘ bakes are not the prettiest you’ll find, but they certainly don’t compromise on flavour. Their irregular, oddly shaped appearance may seem roughly put together compared to the picture-perfect muffins flooding social media, but that is all part of the appeal. Uggli Muffins traces its roots back to 2006, when owner Anton Tan took over his family’s tze char business, which had been serving customers since 1969, and launched the muffin concept that would become the brand’s signature.

Priced at $1.70 each, their repertoire of flavours includes sweet options such as Baby Oreo, Baby Chocolate, Baby Peanut Butter, and Baby Banana Walnut. If you prefer something savoury, there are also flavours such as Baby Chicken Floss with mayonnaise, Baby XO Scallop, Baby Longan Walnut, and Baby Korean Kimchi.

  • 3. SL II Muffin

Residents in Tampines will likely be familiar with SL II Muffin, formerly known as See Lian Cake Shop, a traditional bakery that has been a long-standing fixture in the neighbourhood since the 1980s. Now helmed by the second generation, the family business has pivoted to specialise in affordable muffins and has since expanded to three other outlets in Bukit Timah Interim Wet Market & Food Centre, Hong Lim Market & Food Centre, and at Golden Mile Food Centre.

With over 20 muffin flavours starting at $1.90, you can choose from classics such as Blueberry, Lemon, Chocolate Chip, Walnut, and Strawberry, or opt for more adventurous options including Mango Green Tea ($2.20) and Cranberry Orange ($2.20). Beyond muffins, their egg tarts are also a favourite among regulars, with the classic Egg Tart ($1.90) and Coconut Tart ($1.90) proving especially popular. Alternatively, try the Peach Tart ($2.20) or Mixed Nuts Tart ($2.20) for something a little different.

  • 4. Pretty Good Muffins

It takes some courage to set expectations with a name like Pretty Good Muffins, but many would argue the bakes are much better than just “pretty good”. Beyond being a playful reference to the quality of their products, the name is also an abbreviation of the three founders’ names.

Tucked away in Hong Lim Complex, this hole-in-the-wall bakery is known for serving quality bakes at wallet-friendly prices. They offer 15 different muffin flavours daily, with prices starting from $1.40 for the Almond, $1.50 for the Apple, $3 for the Cranberry, and $4.50 for the Crunchy Valrhona Chocolate.

Alongside classic favourites such as the Blueberry ($1.50) and Seasalt Nutella ($1.80), you will also find trendier flavours like Pistachio Kunafa ($2.20) and Matcha Oreo ($2.40). Read our Pretty Good Muffins feature.

  • 5. Bake n Bites

Most people expect muffins to be served warm or piping hot, but Bake N Bites does things differently. Tucked away in a corner of Golden Mile Food Centre, the bakery has spent the past 17 years perfecting its signature chilled muffins, which are best enjoyed cold.

Don’t be too quick to dismiss them as rock hard—you will be surprised by their texture. Despite being served chilled, each muffin is moist and fluffy, with a cool mouthfeel.

The bestselling Triple Chocolate Muffin ($3.20) is a standout, offering a rich bittersweet cocoa flavour studded with dark chocolate chips. Other options include the Fresh Orange Muffin ($3), Walnut Banana Muffin ($3), and other treats such as the Chewy Brownie ($4.80) and Chicken Rendang Pie ($3). Read our Bakes & Bites review.

Founded by former corporate worker David Lim, Ah Tas Muffins was born out of his lifelong passion for baking. He launched the bakery in 2021, giving it a cheeky name inspired by the Malay word atas, a nod to its premium positioning. But it’s more than just a cheeky name—David lives up to it by sourcing high-quality ingredients from Europe and around the world to craft his muffins.

Besides favourites such as Classic Banana ($3.20), Chocolate Oreo ($3.60), Blueberry Granola ($3.90, and Matcha Walnut ($4), be sure to try the Triple Cheese ($4.20), studded with a blend of cheddar, mozzarella, and an undisclosed European cheese. Read our Ah Tas Muffins review.

  • 7. Ng Kim Lee

While many traditional bakeries in Singapore have gradually disappeared over the years, Ng Kim Lee Confectionery continues to stand the test of time. Located just a short walk from Beauty World MRT Station Exit B, the long-running bakery still draws a loyal crowd of regulars today.

Established in 1954, it has been serving the community for more than 70 years, and remarkably, has remained at the same location since day one. They are best known for their wallet-friendly muffins, priced at just $0.70 each, but their cake selection is equally worth checking out.

If you’re after something more contemporary, they also offer Burnt Cheesecake ($4.50) and Tiramisu ($4.50). Address: 4 Chun Tin Road, Singapore 599591

Don’t let its low profile fool you—Muffin Homme at Bukit Canberra Hawker Centre is one of the most underrated bakeries on this list, and one that’s sure to surprise you.

Flavours on offer include Cranberry Cream Cheese ($2.30), Matcha White Chocolate Chip ($2.30), Double Chocolate ($2.30), Blueberry Streusel ($2.30), and Apple Crumble ($2.30). If you can’t decide, the box of six ($12.50) is the best way to sample a variety of flavours, or you can even opt for the Original Egg Tart ($2.10) or Chocolate Egg Tart ($2.10) if you are not in the mood for muffins.
