YumYum Bakery is a Filipino bakery and ice cream shop at 394 Riccarton Road in Riccarton, Christchurch. Its signature Mango Bravo cake and its Ube Purple Yum ice cream are the favourites the bakery names, along with halo-halo, a Filipino dessert, and cold drinks and juices. Customers say the halo-halo comes with three scoops of creamy ice cream on top, and they also like the chocolate cake and the drinks. Staff are described as friendly and accommodating.
Custom cakes are a large part of the menu, including multi-tier wedding cakes, number-shaped cakes, character cakes for children, and designs decorated with fresh flowers for milestones and anniversaries. Open Locally lists Patisserie YAHAGI about 100 metres away and Shirley's Kitchen 0.7 kilometres away, so this bakery is one of three food shops in the same small part of Riccarton. Our pick in Riccarton for a halo-halo on a hot day or a celebration cake.
