Beyond the Viral: A Bakery Paradise Awaits

Craving something sweet? Sink your teeth into the Carrot Bread (S$3.90), bursting with real Korean carrots and cream cheese, or the Sweet Potato Bread (S$5.20 each or S$15.60 for a set of three), a chewy delight bursting with flavour. Want something savoury? The Spicy Chives Japchae Croquette(S$4.90) and Pastry Hotteok (S$5.80) promise an adventure for your taste buds.
Many of them are shaped exactly like the ingredients they are made from, making them not just a feast for the palate but also the eyes.
Ingredients are shipped in directly from Korea and baked fresh in Singapore to ensure the best quality.
A Legacy Crafted with Local Love
Bakery 1946 isn’t just about trendy bakes. It’s a Daegu institution, established in 1946 and revitalised by passionate leaders like Billy Chung.

This pop-up isn’t just about satisfying your cravings; it’s about immersing yourself in the unique spirit of Daegu. Bakery 1946 aims to collaborate with travel and tourism agencies to introduce Singapore to the city’s vibrant culture and culinary scene. So, while you savor these delightful creations, imagine yourself strolling through Daegu’s charming streets, discovering hidden gems.
