Yeah, we have gone regional to the east(Paris Ris, Tampines), and to the northeast(Punggol, Sengkang, Buangkok, Hougang, Kovan) extending our order outreach based on customer demands. Basically we negotiated better deal with our delivery partners ($8-12) for our customers’ sake. So it is by demand and based on what the customers request us to do for them. Being a listening bakery is important and serving them to the best we could has always been our motto.
More to come if the demand is there...😍👊

In the blink of an eye, we are into the month of A

In the blink of an eye, we are into the month of August, we hope to bring you the most awaited news of mankind: the covid-19 vaccine, alas it isn’t ready yet except in the form of some Brera’s Kouignamann, Basque burnt cheesecake, Cruffins etc, to bring you some temporary respite as we are still very much trapped in the pandemic times. Well, the biggest progress reported from our end is the Green Effort by all. We have seen about 30-40% increase of people bringing own containers, plastic bags, reusable bags, or cutting down possible wastage 👏👏👏. That’s one encouraging hope amidst gloomy times ahead. Until Christmas time, everybody and everything we do will remain cautious, but for now, a few kind deeds will certainly go a long way.

Hebrews 10:24 “And let us consider how we may spur one another on toward love and good deeds”

Truth be told: this is the man Chef @wythesoon who

Truth be told: this is the man Chef @wythesoon who stirred up and behind the whole Basque Burnt Cheesecake craze in Singapore. Honestly, we must thank him for creating such yummy cakes helping the entire Singapore weather through the difficult Circuit Breaker Phase 1, Phase 2, Recovery Phase 1, Phase 2, Phase 3 & beyond...forever more to go. This BCC has brought countless joy, comfort, happiness, warm, boost, delight to so many people in so many settings on so many different occasions. Long live BCC and long live Chef @wythesoon. If you haven’t tried one before, please come down soon or order from our online shop www.bakerybrera.com/shop. We are on 4th edition of BCC with reduced sugar after the @straitstimesfood post.
God’s timing is always perfect. He is never early, never late, but always on time.
We have learnt how to trust God, more so in times of trouble like Proverbs 3:5-6 “Trust in the Lord with all your heart and lean not on your own understanding; in all your ways submit to him, and he will make your paths straight.”

While working on public holidays is norm for F&B,

While working on public holidays is norm for F&B, love how the ‘extended family of Brera’ (a.k.a fans, customers, supporters, friends combined) didn’t forget us and came checking in specifically to cheer us on. Some were surprised we are open. The red and white coordination and the National flag brought much warm to our spirit and heart.
To all our esteemed customers, you are worth serving for and you made our time working on public holidays or weekends worth every while!
Love this close-knitted bread community! 🥰

Baking Therapy
Arlena, 13yo, only child, bright and mature girl bursting with multiple talents.

To her, spending time at the bakery is super therapeutic and a break away from her so-called uneventful study-homework routine.

It was during one of her visits with her parents that she spotted the “go-to” place for her weekend outing. At times she has extra load of homework to do, still coming to the bakery means “recharging” her mind & body.

Last week, she eagerly texted me to say she has a surprise for us. It turned out that she wants all the baker ‘Sifus’ to sample her hazelnut choc chip cookies and give her comments. She sneaked out of her cashiering job to have a personal consultation session with the head baker @wythesoon and baker @ponylee1221. Satisfied, with all the advice and attention she received. 🧚🏼‍♀️
Precisely we want the bakery to be a place to engage these little ones where they are free to express their passion and creativity. It’s a joy to see them going about in and out of the bakery with a sense of home coming and belonging.

Mark 9:37 “Whoever welcomes one of these little children in my name welcomes me; and whoever welcomes me does not welcome me but the one who sent me.”

Vacation-deprived, Sleep-deprived, Social-deprived?
More people are telling us they work longer hours from home than in office. This is contrary to what we thought WFH would be - it is not necessarily more freedom or more chilled. So we are not going to let you be deprived forever, get out of the house, come and get your sweet-fix this long weekends. 😎🤓🥐🥖🥨🍞🍰🧁

Nice, another long weekend coming up: Hari Raya Ha

Nice, another long weekend coming up: Hari Raya Haji on Jul 31.

It is to remember the willingness of Ibrahim (Abraham) to sacrifice his son Ismael (Isaac in the Bible) as an act of obedience to God's command. But, before Ibrahim could sacrifice his son, God provided a lamb to sacrifice instead.
(Interestingly, this segment is also found in the Bible).
In commemoration of this intervention, an animal, usually a sheep, is sacrificed ritually and divided into three parts. One share is given to the poor and needy, another is kept for home, and the third is given to relatives. That was how Korban ritual (sacrifice) came about.

Serving the international community is part of our

Serving the international community is part of our mission. Foreign talent is a sensitive subject in Singapore for some, but we can’t deny the fact that having quality foreigners in our midst does help build a more competitive economy. I cannot imagine living in a homogenous demographics of Singapore, life will be so boring. Everyday we serve and meet hundreds of customers. On average of a 4-year expat term, we would have met each other over 400 times, from there we forged many meaningful and beautiful friendships of different nations.
July is a bittersweet month where we bid goodbye to many familiar expats in our midst and at the same time we receive new expats and new residents. This year given the current economic crisis of the world we are in, we seem to see more leaving than arriving 😢. One thing for sure, these foreigner friends have each added value to our work at the bakery by sharing their interesting culture during their time in Singapore eg the figurine and the crown we used for the Galette des Rois were first bought for us by Catherine Lacconi, our first French customer-friend😘.

This buttery, flaky, caramelised confection hailed

This buttery, flaky, caramelised confection hailed from Brittany is making every pastry lover go crazy due to its near-perfect pastry experience. It is no wonder every student intern would request for a glimpse of how it is made behind the scene.
We have so many Bretons came and exclaiming how could it be better than the origin☺️🤗. This is the only pastry that will lay you down flat - none other than Kouign-Amann.😜

Group buy, estate buy or kampung buy, whatever you

Group buy, estate buy or kampung buy, whatever you called it, it takes the few kind souls in the estate to organise the group buy for everyone. @llimeiii is one of those, that day we left out some items from the main orders and had to deliver them back late evening, O my, her whole household including parents and helper (plus she has 3 young children) were still busy sorting the orders out for her neighbours occupying the entire living room (it’s already passed 5 hours😬). In times like this, we discover the angels God put around us. Thank you @llimeiii for your kind act of service. I certainly hope to have a neighbour like you but more so you have shown us how to be a good neighbour!👏👏👏
Romans 13:9b
whatever other command there may be, are summed up in this one command: “Love your neighbor as yourself.”

Start your busy week with something simple yet nut

Start your busy week with something simple yet nutritious - rolled oats banana mixed muffin. You may be wondering about the different kind of oats in the market, thankfully they are all good be it raw, rolled or instant - just different in cooking times. The name “rolled oats”, also called old-fashioned oats refers to the fact the whole oat grains are steamed and then rolled to produce flat oak flakes. Cereal oats are famous for being full of nutrients, they are good source of fibre and protein.
You can be rest assured we always source for the best ingredients in the market for your enjoyment and peace of mind. 🙌

*Our Treasure, Our Elders* Is age a competitive ad

*Our Treasure, Our Elders*
Is age a competitive advantage or disadvantage at workplace? One clear demographic trend, we are all getting older and living longer. 20% of our staff profiles are over the age of 55 (me included). We believe that age corresponds with workplace wisdom, so we aim to create a fair & inclusive workplace culture for seniors. Every senior has a treasure trove of stories to share. When I look at these seniors, I’m looking at me, at some point, we might all need somebody to help us. Start asking seniors about their amends, regrets, and triumphs, you might change or reinforce your own priorities.
Wendy, 55, our well-loved cleaner whose birthdate is one day after mine. She is the longest serving staff since we started 5 years ago. Without her cleaning up the mountain pile of baking utensils everyday, we would have a much tougher day in the bakery. She is very much my soulmate at work (we are fading away together😬) and she often acts as the chaperon to the junior bakers. One little known accolade was she was once the head prefect in her primary school days.
Mrs Ong, 77 who lives in the same block above the bakery. She covers the cleaning job whenever Wendy is unable to work like weekends or public holidays. For most part of her life, she worked as a bus driver and managed 7 other buses ferrying students and construction workers. Her other jobs include class 3 driving instructor, selling eggs, KAYA jam and salad etc. Her filial children adore her as the most hardworking mama bringing up 5 of them well.
To all the Brera’s seniors, we salute you! They have certainly added stability and wisdom to the entire bakery’s undertaking.🧑‍🦳👨‍🦳

Psalm 71:9,17a
Do not cast me away when I am old; do not forsake me when my strength is gone. Since my youth, God, you have taught me, and to this day I declare your marvelous deeds to the next generation.

“The Grind vs Glamour” Working on weekends me

“The Grind vs Glamour”

Working on weekends means ideas & strategy planning are nothing, execution is everything.

Work is not gonna separate from our life. It’s part of life, and weekends are part of life too, in fact weekend defines a big part of who we are – what we do for work, when we work and the amount of energy, passion or lack of it we put into work impacting our overall performance at Brera.

Hope to see you tomorrow, with the biggest spread all waiting for you every weekend. Come grab some for your loved ones!

Do you know you can shop online round the clock in

Do you know you can shop online round the clock instead of coming down physically with the risk of your favourite items being sold out? We have seen customers who have been ordering on weekly basis, send pastry gifts to friends, avoided the queues, worrying not about the crowd and the risk etc.

If you have large group orders(potentially 4 or 5 trays of pastries or very specific packaging request) for different families or bundle with neighbours, we encourage you to place your orders online to avoid time and space at our tiny shop. Do take advantage of the logistics in place for your convenience. Furthermore I received call from my favourite and friendliest HDB officer Ms Ang requesting us to shift from walk-in to more online sales😅. She said we are not out of the woods yet - pandemic remains a real threat. More cooperations needed☺️.

Hello Happy Monday🤗🌧! Time wait for no man we need to hit the ground fast and work even harder! 🧐
One of the things I enjoyed doing most during my corporate days as HR chief was working with Corp Comm team, bringing updates, stories and inspirations periodically to all employees from the desk of HR. Now with Brera, we want to apply this best practice by creating an open platform for our beloved customers to stay connected and to contribute actively feedback and discussions. We love the fact how this community is evolving, growing and becoming very much like one big family.
Please forgive this first release being a bit info over-load but let’s get active and tell us what else you like to hear or receive.
We are by no means perfect and in need of your constructive input to help us improve. We need you as much as you need us(the breads), we are truly blessed to have all of you onboard the Brera Ship⛴❤️, carrying more than 20k of you.

Nature or Nurture? Work or Play? Too early or late

Nature or Nurture? Work or Play? Too early or later?
As a community bakery, we soon realised the enormous roles we can play to be that ‘extended parent’ to many young people around us in the name of social learning & development.

Young people are shouldering the weight of the world. How do we help them lead now and become effective leaders in the future? We see an urgent need. How do we foster that, strengthen their identity as leaders, and help them gain skills they need now as they look toward an uncertain future.
According to Albert Bandura's social learning theory: people learn by observing the behavior of others. INTENTIONALITY is key, we want to be intentional about the environment we provide for the benefits of children, we deliberately incorporate teachable moments. We as a team bear specific learning goals in mind – both for aspects of children’s development in social and emotional, cognitive, physical and creative domains. We are constantly observing, guiding, and planning.
Children learn best when they’re having fun. Watching a child’s face light up in recognition when a dull text book fact comes to life through workplay is what we hope to achieve. We want to engage a child with the world around them. The joy of sharing that learning with our children is unbounded, and a lot of the time we are re-learning forgotten things or discovering concepts anew.
We welcome parents and their children to come be a partner of learning and development. There is no such thing of asking too much or too many.

Monday pitch: Please don’t get us wrong, we all

Monday pitch:
Please don’t get us wrong, we all mean well. We are not against plastics. In our efforts to recycle, yet the daily mountains use of plastic continue to defeat us. What we are advocating here is simply cutting down and minimise plastic use, contributing to a zero-waste lifestyle.
A life of no plastic is hard but possible. Over the past months, I’ve been trying to make more environmentally conscious choices by putting an effort to walk the talk myself – it hasn’t been easy I must admit. But I’ve realized that if there’s anything immediate that we can do to make a difference, it’s making simple choices with greater thought. If we make enough small choices, it is possible to use less plastic – and make plastic consciousness a norm here in Singapore.

Singaporeans are prolific users of plastic. Singapore's recycling culture is still relatively weak, compared it anecdotally to the West and in Asian cities such as Tokyo, Taipei and Seoul. The good news is people are gradually warming up to the idea of bringing their own bags.

Singaporeans in general care about climate change. Most people are also aware of the detrimental effects of plastic pollution, but the problem is not all see the URGENCY in choosing sustainable options. Many do not think their actions make a difference, just because we cannot fully comprehend how much of our little effort impacts the world we live in, it does not mean we have no part in it. Environmental issues can seem overwhelming, but instead of feeling overwhelmed, let’s choose to be mindful.
MORE CIVIC MINDEDNESS NEEDED: Singaporeans are making the shift towards bringing their own containers and bags. Most people are already conscious of the environmental issues. They just need a few more nudges to action (me included☺️).
Way to go, those who have already made it a part of their second nature! 😘

The biggest flaw of this picture and the technology is that the full aroma of the savoury scones cannot be transmitted digitally unlike the sights and sounds. If you step into the bakery when these are fresh out from the oven, you are in the luck. For now, it can only be a virtual treat or subject to Pavlov’s conditioning - salivating for real😬☹️.

We are working on a series of value-based sharing and really looking forward to a more vibrant community connection. 💕

We always keep your requests in mind and plan accordingly😘.

Monday’s reflection: It’s almost always the b

Monday’s reflection:
It’s almost always the bread (& its smell) that brings dads into our midst. 😍
Father’s Day is set to be a celebration of our “superhero” dads. However, not all of us have amazing dads, and Father’s Day can be a painful day to endure for many. Our hearts go out to those who have lost their father, those who have suffered abuse, those who never met their dad, and those whose dads have never been there. Whatever the case may be, we recognize that each one is surely unique in its difficulties. One truth to remember for this day: we all have a perfect Father who will never fail us. God is the Father from whom all fatherhood derives its name. (Ephesians 3:15)
Below is how the Heavenly Father changes everything. Rest in the fact that there are no orphans of God.💪 .
He is our Father in heaven.
And call no man your father on earth, for you have one Father, who is in heaven. (Matthew 23:9)

He is the potter, working to shape our lives.
You are our Father; we are the clay, and you are our potter; we are all the work of your hand. (Isaiah 64:8)

He is our creator.
Have we not all one Father? Has not one God created us (Malachi 2:10a)

He has given us kind love.
“See what great love the Father has lavished on us, that we should be called children of God! (1 John 3:1a)

He is compassionate.
The Lord is like a father to his children, tender and compassionate to those who fear him. (Psalm 103:13)

He is a Father to the fatherless.
A Father to the fatherless, a defender of widows. (Psalm 68:5a)

He is where we belong.
“I will be a Father to you and you will be my sons and daughters, says the Lord Almighty.” (2 Cor 6:18)

He sets us free from the past.
“For you did not receive a spirit that makes you a slave again to fear, but you received the Spirit of sonship. And by him we cry, “Abba, Father”. (Romans 8:15)

What a great privilege we have to be invited into such an intimate relationship with God, who wants us to call Him Father.🙏

Prelude to Father’s Day: Always a joy to see fat

Prelude to Father’s Day: Always a joy to see father and son adore one another, and how fathers play a critical role in their children’s lives, particularly the sons! 👬
Got to know two pairs of father-n-sons because these two fathers pursued their son’s baking passion so persistently & relentlessly for an internship place at Brera. 👍
Lastly, I hardly honour my father-in-law who’s 79 years old, used to be hawker by day & taxi driver by night, a doting grandfather who cared for my 4 children, a great cook himself(famous for his Teochew braised duck), speaks 7 languages & dialects and still insists to earn his living as cleaner at a coffeeshop. We both share lots in conversations, especially in the area of TCM. 👣

What is impressive about this Croque-Monsieur is n

What is impressive about this Croque-Monsieur is not just the yummy French sandwich itself, what surprised us is we are seeing more Singaporeans (young and old) enjoying this hearty snack as one of their favourites, which is not based on ordinary white bread but using a variety of sourdough breads on our menu. Good to see the upward appreciation trend on eating healthy real breads.

Masking half of our face has taught us to care les

Masking half of our face has taught us to care less about the external look but learn to focus on the inner beauty of individuals. We are able to better focus our energy on serving people who loves our breads, we admire people with a soft heart for others, we are connected at hearts simply by the common life experiences/struggles we share, the social causes and belief systems we embrace.
How amazing through serving the humble breads, we got to meet many interesting people and got to hear about their life stories and be inspired to do good each day.
@kimlimhl was introduced to us recently and had encouraged me much through our interactions in this short period of time😘.

Here’s a little bread tip/tutorial for everyone

Here’s a little bread tip/tutorial for everyone as we rest on Monday:
As our bakes contain no preservatives and are made with only the finest natural ingredients, it is best to keep them fresh by storing in the refrigerator immediately in well-sealed packaging(paper bags are great too). If keeping for longer than 3 days, they are best to be frozen & good for one month+ (bring to the fridge to thaw the night before actual consumption day). Breads and pastries are great to reheat, toast in the oven/toaster/air-fryer at 180-220°C for 5-10min, turn off the oven and let it sit for another 5 mins inside. It will taste as good as fresh. Please note that ideal reheating time/temperature will vary based on the oven/appliance, so should be carefully monitored as it heats!
Pastries (croissants, cruffins, danishes) are always best consumed on the day of purchase else they are good to store in the fridge due to its high butter content. You may sprinkle a little water on the frozen breads before toasting if you think it has lost some moistures. For convenience, slice the bread before freezing.
Microwave heating is not recommended for pastries as it may soften or destroy pastry texture. You may microwave frozen bread slice for 15-20sec max for pretty good result.
DO NOT re-freeze thawed product. DO NOT re-heat more than once.

Handling of breads and pastries takes a bit of practice and tutorial, once you master the way, you will enjoy every piece of our product to the maximum pleasure anytime you feel like it at the comfort of your home🤗. Let us know if you have more burning questions.
