Nanatang was established in 2013 by its founder, Serena. Starting as a home baker (like many of you), Serena has come a long way. Now, Nanatang is a two-storey, well-known baking studio and bakehouse that caters to the latest cake trends, bringing you exciting hands-on baking classes and Instagram-worthy cakes. Nanatang also exclusively collaborates with many award-winning instructors from around the world, including those from France, Taiwan, Ireland, Korea, and more.
In the beginning, Nanatang was created as a space to bring together wonderful people to create beautiful things—a place where hearing “cake is life” was the norm. Now, we dare say it has become so much more—the birthplace of elite pastry artists and bakers, and where some of the most innovative treats take shape!
Here at Nanatang, you can learn baking skills and grow your passion because you have a like-minded friend and teacher in us. You can even conduct your own one-day baking workshops and regular private classes (whether cake-related or not) or host private parties and events. We also offer personal baking sessions and corporate bonding activities, such as team-building cooking classes!
The Fatfatcaron, a one-of-a-kind creation by Serena, is the heart of Nanatang’s baking legacy. You can learn how to make this exclusive dessert in Nanatang’s Signature Fatfatcaron Class!
These Fatfatcarons are not the usual ones that are purely filled with whole chunks of cream. Inspired by the ttung-carons (뚱카롱)—giant versions of their dainty French cousins (macarons), which literally translates to ‘fat-carons’ due to their sheer size and over-the-top appearance—the Fatfatcarons were born, serving as the plus-sized versions of fatcarons.
We want you to experience a variety of textures and flavours within each piece of goodness. This is for those who truly appreciate high-quality, made-with-love masterpieces. As the original creators of Fatfatcarons, we can proudly say that there’s no other baking studio in Singapore where you can learn to make this delectable, texture-rich delight!Learn more.
That said, feel free to also explore a wide range of other baking classes, including sweet and fluffy Korean Strawberry Cake, crisp and delicate Choux & Tarts, soft and airy Dacquoise, and beautiful shell-shaped Madeleines. In these workshops, students of all skill levels can feel at ease, surrounded by a supportive atmosphere as they create delicious treats with real techniques and premium, high-quality ingredients, such as fresh fruits. From mastering the fundamentals with crash courses to pushing the limits of your baking potential with more exposure and practice, our diverse range of classes has you covered. Dough mixing, fermentation, tempering chocolate, and more—experience the art of baking with world-class chefs at Nanatang.
Our recipes are carefully tweaked and adjusted to lower the sugar content, without compromising the taste and texture of the products. Our goal is to show that cake, bread, and pastry making can happen in a healthy way, without sacrificing either flavour or nutrition.
All of Nanatang’s classes are thoughtfully curated with the goal that bakers can easily recreate the desserts at home anytime. This means using accessible ingredients and recipes that can be made with basic home-based equipment. Pick up new recipes from us to expand your baking repertoire and create homemade gifts for any occasion!
Baking is one thing. Decorating is an entirely new world!
Making cakes and pastries beautiful is important. When they look more appealing, people are more likely to want to eat them. Most importantly, people admire them first and take nice photos for memories. We first eat with our eyes!
Nanatang first started with Korean Flower Piping classes. From Korean glossy buttercream and Korean beanpaste flowers to chocolate cream flowers, be amazed by how beautiful these floral details are! On top of that, the icing is fully edible, unlike using inedible fresh flowers to decorate your cakes.
Nanatang also offers decorating classes that are perfect for you to bring your child along. Come have fun and enjoy the bonding experience. Most importantly, no washing required (YAY!). Feel free to make a mess, and let us handle all the cleaning up. You can focus on your child, and bring home the precious, beautiful treats that the two of you made together! It’s like an art and craft class, but with scrumptious, edible creations.
Do you often find yourself Googling “what to do in Singapore?” or “couple cake baking activities in Singapore?”. We’ve been there, and at Nanatang, we know exactly what you’re looking for.
Come join us for an enjoyable baking experience with your partner!
Our classes are beginner-friendly and come with step-by-step guidance by professionally trained instructors. All materials are included and prepared. Arrive with nothing (fuss-free!), and leave with your own handmade creations to enjoy and share with your loved ones. Who knows, you might discover a passion for baking and get inspired to start creating more!
We offer a variety of creative classes to choose from, as well as specialised workshops and sessions suitable for business needs and family bonding. Reach out personally to find out more!
You will first need to ask yourself whether you’re looking for a fun and casual experience or if you want to turn baking into a full-time career.
Some very affordable classes (such as those from community centres) might only be demonstration sessions without hands-on experience. Classes with a longer duration tend to be more hands-on and technique-focused.
Entry-level classes under $200 are a good starting point for your baking journey.
Classes above $200 tend to provide deeper insights into baking and often feature overseas celebrity chefs such as the handsome Charles Liets from London, Dream Cake creator Lumascake from Paris, and the famous Warmcake (Crystal) from Korea.
All in all, these baking classes are meant for those who are serious about learning and want to skip the frustration of failed baking attempts from watching YouTube videos. They are for those who want to accelerate their learning, excel, and achieve good results in the shortest period of time.
With the rise of social media platforms such as Instagram, be sure to check out the Instagram accounts of various baking studios to view some of their work. A beautifully decorated, Instagram-worthy cake might just catch your attention and inspire you to join their class in hopes of creating the exact same cake to show off on your very own Instagram account!
We are a baking studio situated at 41 Kampong Bahru Road, Singapore 169358. The exact location is along the main road, just further down from New Bridge Road.
Our two-storey studio offers baking classes for everyone, from beginners to experts, covering a wide range of cake decorating techniques taught by an international team of chefs. Our partners come from places such as London, Korea, Turkey, and France, just to name a few.
Serena founded the baking studio in 2013. She specialises in buttercream-style cakes and is an expert in the flower piping technique.

Many people start off by learning through YouTube videos, which leads them to experiment with trial and error in baking. While it may seem like a low-cost option, feedback shows that many people fail to make a product just by blindly following instructions on YouTube. This often results in wasting ingredients and time, which ultimately costs money.
We strongly recommend learning from a professionally trained instructor instead! Only experienced instructors can provide proper guidance, highlight important details, and explain the concepts and theories behind each step of baking—something YouTube won’t teach you. There are many baking studios in Singapore, including us at Nanatang. Do check us out on our website!
There truly are so many options these days, including online baking classes. However, Nanatang does not offer online workshops, as we believe that learning how to bake requires hands-on experience and physical guidance. Most online classes work like YouTube videos, where you can only watch the tutorials without any on-the-spot guidance. While it may seem like an affordable option, it is ultimately an inefficient method.
Though we believe there is no such thing as the “best” baking class, we do feel a good baking course should have the following elements:
At Nanatang, we are very particular about the learning experience. We want everyone to leave with a sense of satisfaction, plenty of knowledge, and lifelong skills. If you haven’t tried our baking classes yet, now is the time! Check out our upcoming baking class schedule.
Whether it’s a good skill or not, the first thing to ask yourself is whether you enjoy baking. Without any interest in it, you won’t be able to fully commit. Again, we believe there is no such thing as “a good skill” in a general sense—it depends on how you perceive it and how you choose to apply the skills. What we can promise is that baking will be a therapeutic process if you enjoy it!
Certainly, but that’s only if you practise regularly. If you learn but don’t practise, you’ll quickly forget what you’ve learnt. In our baking classes, we always encourage learners to practise and get familiar with the techniques. Practice makes perfect, remember?
Most of our classes are 3 hours long, starting from $168. We also offer full-day masterclasses, which can range from $400 onwards. Every class is carefully created and planned. We are in the best position to advise on how much time is needed to learn and how the class should be conducted. Overall, our goal is for everyone to leave with their own masterpieces, along with valuable skills and knowledge that will last a lifetime.
Absolutely not. That’s why our classes are a hot favourite among those who love to bake and enjoy their sweet treats, but hate the cleanup afterwards!
We’re just a 7-minute walk from Outram MRT, located at 41 Kampong Bahru Rd, Singapore 169358. There are also plenty of buses available nearby.
Unfortunately, our baking classes are not SkillsFuture credit claimable due to the shorter duration of our classes (3 hours, as opposed to the required 8 hours for all SkillsFuture courses) and because we are non-examinable.
Students come to us because they prefer an efficient, fuss-free, and relaxing class where they don’t have to spend an entire day just to complete one finished product.
We’re confident in our 99.99% success rate. But in the rare event that you don’t succeed, we’ll let you take home your own batch of products for free, so you can still share these delectable delights with your loved ones!
Of course! New students love our small class sizes because each student gets the right amount of attention, especially on their first try!
We’re here to hype you up for the challenge and get you excited to try new things!
Once you’ve made payment and confirmed your booking, we’re unable to offer a refund as we’ve already reserved your slot and prepped the ingredients for your class.
