After 14 truly wonderful years, Carpenter and Cook has now closed its doors.
This little bakery and café has been so much more than a business to us. It has been a place filled with
birthday cakes, morning coffees, family celebrations, friendly conversations, and countless memories.
We are incredibly grateful to everyone who has walked through our doors and supported us over the
years. Thank you for making Carpenter and Cook what it has been.
While this chapter has come to an end, our cafe journey continues just 5km away at Neighbourly in Pandan Valley. We would love to welcome you there, where we’ll be focusing our energy and continuing to serve up many of the favourites you’ve come to know and love, and introducing other tasty new creations.
If you find yourself missing a Carpenter and Cook classic, you can also order selected bakes through our
online store.
There is more good news to share. Our wonderful baker is planning to take over this very space and give it
a fresh new chapter. While it will have a renewed look and some exciting new creations of her own, you’ll
also find many of the beloved baked goods that have long been part of Carpenter and Cook. If all goes to
plan, we hope to welcome you back here around mid-September.
So this isn’t quite goodbye—more like “see you soon.”
From the bottom of our hearts, thank you for 14 unforgettable years. We hope to see you at Neighbourly,
and we also hope you’ll return in a couple of months to discover the next chapter of this special little
bakery.
With love and gratitude,
The Carpenter and Cook Team
