Cedele - Novena Square

About Cedele - Novena Square

Cedele at Novena Square is the Novena outpost of one of Singapore's most familiar artisanal bakery-cafe names. Located at #01-22, 238 Thomson Road, it serves the range the brand has become known for since 1997: healthy cakes and desserts made without artificial additives, alongside hearty sandwiches, nourishing soups and fresh artisanal breads, all under the long-standing philosophy of "Eat Well, Be Well".

Cakes are the heart of the story. The wholesome carrot walnut cake remains the signature, joined by local-inspired bakes such as the Ondeh Ondeh and Gula Melaka Pandan cakes, a Red Velvet finished with cream cheese frosting, a Real Dark Chocolate cake with couverture ganache, and seasonal releases like the anniversary Cocoa Carrot Walnut Cake and Granola & Yoghurt Sourdough. Every bake follows the same house approach: honestly sourced ingredients, mindfully made, and free from artificial additives.

Beyond the cake counter there is plenty for a proper meal: hearty soups, classic sandwiches, focaccia tartines, signature bowls and bentos, and lighter bites like yoghurt cups. The branch also plugs into Cedele's online store, where cakes and bakes can be ordered for same-day pickup or delivery, while hearty meals and the Workspace pita pockets and grain bowls are available for next-day delivery. Sharing platters, gathering sets, high tea sets, wholesome meal boxes and corporate catering make it a practical call for offices and celebrations too.

In 2026 Cedele marked 29 years of bringing people together over wholesome bakes and heartfelt meals, celebrated with anniversary specials and offers through the season. A Cedele Rewards programme adds welcome rewards, birthday treats and bonus savings for regulars.

Cedele Novena Square: Healthy Cakes, Artisanal Bakes & Wholesome Cafe Meals on Thomson Road

Cedele's Novena Square outlet brings nearly three decades of wholesome baking to 238 Thomson Road. It belongs to a homegrown artisanal food and beverage group that began in 1997 and now spans bakeries, cafes and full-service restaurants across Singapore. Whatever the format, the promise stays the same: honestly sourced, mindfully made food, served under the long-running motto of "Eat Well, Be Well".

A cake counter with a conscience

Cedele built its reputation on healthy cakes and desserts, and that remains what the brand is best known for. Long before better-for-you baking was fashionable, the bakery committed to cakes free from artificial additives, and the carrot walnut cake became the icon of that approach — the wholesome slice generations of Singaporeans have reached for at office birthdays and family celebrations.

The counter today is broad. Chocolate cakes, cheesecakes, loaf cakes and sponge cakes sit alongside a dedicated special-diet range and plant-based choices such as tarts. Local flavours hold their own against the classics: the Ondeh Ondeh cake pairs pandan sponge with gula melaka, the Gula Melaka Pandan cake turns another beloved pairing into a celebration centrepiece, and the Lychee Rose cake adds a floral, distinctly local touch. The standards are here too — a Red Velvet with cream cheese frosting, a Black Forest with kirsch-soaked cherries and Chantilly cream, a Real Dark Chocolate cake with couverture ganache, plus Yuzu Raspberry Cheesecake, Chocolate Matcha and Choc Banana Espresso. In 2026, the brand's 29th anniversary added a Cocoa Carrot Walnut Cake to the signature line-up.

Bread, soups and proper meals

The baking does not stop at cake. Artisanal fresh breads anchor the bakery side, joined by fresh-baked pastries, chilled desserts and cookie boxes for the pantry at home. The anniversary Granola & Yoghurt Sourdough, a new-season release, sums up the direction: familiar comfort built on better ingredients.

Cedele is equally a place for real meals. Hearty soups and classic sandwiches have long been staples, and the menu has grown to include the much-loved Thins, focaccia tartines, signature bowls and bentos, and yoghurt cups for lighter moments.

Made for offices, parties and last-minute plans

Much of Cedele's work happens beyond the cafe walls. Cakes and bakes can be ordered online for same-day delivery or pickup, while hearty meals go out for next-day delivery. The Workspace range of pita pockets and grain bowls is designed for exactly that rhythm — hearty, nutritious lunches for the office or events, ordered today for tomorrow. For bigger occasions, sharing party platters, gathering sets, high tea sets, wholesome meal boxes and corporate orders scale the same kitchen up to a crowd.

Reasons to keep coming back

Regulars have extra reasons to return. Cedele Rewards offers welcome rewards, birthday treats and bonus savings, and the calendar is dotted with occasions — the 29th anniversary in mid-2026 brought 20% off selected whole cakes and cookie boxes alongside two new anniversary bakes, a fitting mark of 29 years of gratitude.

Whether it is a quick wholesome lunch near Novena, a celebration cake with a cleaner ingredient list, or a spread for the whole office, the Novena Square branch distils what Cedele has done since 1997: food that nourishes both body and soul, without asking you to choose between the two.
