LoFi X Whisk by M is a bakery-café pairing at 108 Hougang Ave 1, #01-1281, in Hougang, Singapore. True to its name, it brings two things together under one roof: a café's easy coffee-and-snacks comfort and a baker's cake counter, resulting in a menu that stretches from whole celebration cakes to single slices, tarts, cookies, ice cream pints and a full drinks list.
The cake selection is the headline. Whole cakes range from compact 4-inch floral and minimalist designs to styled buttercreams like Garden Bloom, Vintage Buttercream, Concrete Watercolour and Classic Ombré, alongside house classics such as Tiramisu, Guinness Chocolate Cake, Lychee Rose Shortcake and Baked Oreo Cheesecake, plus mousse cakes in matcha, dark chocolate, strawberry rose and more. Almost every flavour is also offered as an individual portion, so a table can mix and match — with tarts, brownies (including vegan), croffles and waffles filling out the sweeter side.
Beyond baking, the kitchen turns out savoury plates like All Day Breakfast, Bangers & Mash, Waffle & Chix and a Mentaiko Croffle, backed by a bites menu of quiche, chicken karaage, fries and takoyaki. Coffee, teas, hot chocolate, specialty floats and take-home ice cream pints — with vegan options — round out the offering, while gift boxes, cookie tubs and gift cards make gifting simple. Ordering ahead is available through the café's online ordering site.
Tucked at 108 Hougang Ave 1, #01-1281, LoFi X Whisk by M is what happens when a café and a bakery share an address. The name says it plainly: LoFi's café side meets Whisk by M's baking, and the result is a menu that runs from celebratory whole cakes and dainty tarts to ice cream pints, croffles, all-day breakfast and a full coffee programme. Whether you are dropping in for a single slice and a latte or planning a birthday centrepiece, the range here is unusually wide for a neighbourhood café.
The cake counter is the heart of the offering. Whole cakes span from compact 4-inch floral and minimalist cakes — sized for smaller gatherings — up to generously styled buttercream designs. Garden Bloom and Vintage Buttercream lean romantic and classic, Concrete Watercolour and Watercolour Buttercream take a painterly, modern approach, and there is a Classic Ombré and a Pastel Sweetheart for those who prefer soft gradients. Alongside them sit whole versions of house favourites: Tiramisu, Guinness Chocolate Cake, Lychee Rose Shortcake, baked Oreo and vanilla cheesecakes, mousse cakes in matcha, dark chocolate, strawberry rose, earl grey berry and coconut mango, plus Black Forest, Opera, Carrot Cake, Lemon Pound Cake and more.
If a whole cake is too much of a commitment, nearly every flavour is available as an individual portion, so everyone at the table can pick their own — from tiramisu to Midnight Goma, the black sesame option. Tarts come in Lemon & Thyme, Basil Fruit and Salted Caramel Chocolate. For a hands-on celebration, the DIY Mini Cake Set hands the decorating over to you.
The freezers hold take-home pints in flavours like Roasted Pistachio, Brown Butter Pecans, Tahitian Vanilla, Fresh Mint Chocolate Chip, Cookies n Cream and Raspberry Swirl, with vegan options including Dark Chocolate Chips and Mango Yuzu. At the table, the dessert list covers a Chocolate Overload, Fresh Fruit & Cream, brownies — classic and vegan — an Oreo Blondie, waffles, croffles and an affogato of espresso over ice cream.
The savoury side keeps things comfortable: All Day Breakfast, Bangers & Mash, Waffle & Chix and a Mentaiko Croffle, backed by a bites menu of quiche, chicken karaage, popcorn chicken, fries in several forms — curly, spam and truffle chip — plus takoyaki and nuggets. It is the kind of menu that lets one half of the table order coffee and cake while the other goes for karaage and fries, no eyebrows raised.
The coffee list covers the standards — Americano, Latte, Cappuccino, Mocha, Caramel Latte and a Double Espresso — with a Baileys Irish Latte for something richer. Non-coffee drinkers get Hot Chocolate, Matcha Latte and an Earl Grey Latte, while the tea list runs from British Breakfast and Earl Grey Lavender to White Peach Oolong, Hanami and Brown Sugar Red Date. The specialty list is where things get playful: Chocolate, Latte, Mocha and Matcha Floats, and a RootBeer Float, all crowned with ice cream.
For gifts, there is a Brownie Gift Box of 8, a Sculpted Floral Gift Box and a Dessert Gift Box, alongside cookie tubs — parmesan, earl grey, matcha white chocolate, nutella butter and more — plus a Cookie Gift Box and Gift Cards for when you would rather let someone choose. The Dessert Platter gathers the range for the table, built for sharing.
Ordering is straightforward: the full menu — cakes by the slice or whole, tarts, pints, drinks and savoury plates — sits on the café's online ordering site, so you can browse and arrange your order before heading to Blk 108 Hougang Ave 1. With vegan brownies and pints among the options and an affogato for the indecisive, LoFi X Whisk by M covers the whole spread, from a quiet slice with a latte to the cake at the centre of the party.
