Specialising in French baking, Crumb & Co. was opened earlier this year. It was founded by Shikha Jain, who is committed to replicating French desserts in as authentic a way as possible. This means that when it comes to ingredients, there is no compromise and she chooses the choicest French ingredients for her bakes.
“At Crumb & Co., we’re on a mission to transport our patrons to the charming streets of Paris through the art of French patisserie. With each handcrafted dessert, we strive to capture the essence of the French experience, blending traditional techniques with premium ingredients. Crumb & Co. is a sweet journey where every bite is a taste of the rich and diverse flavours that define the heart of authentic French pastry,” said owner Shikha Jain.

Lemon Tea Cake: Make evenings sweeter with this zesty lemon tea cake that is midly sweet and fragrant. It has a cream cheese frosting that adds a touch of richness to the cake as well.
Chocolate Salted Caramel Tarts: These tarts are eggless and the chocolate ganache is decadent and dense. The thick and luscious caramel along with chopped hazelnuts for garnish add a salty kick to the tart.
Tiramisu Tub: Savour your fave Italian treat in a tub, on the go. This has homemade ladyfinger biscuits soaked in Kahlua with a creamy mascarpone filling. A perfect post-dinner treat!
Gluten Free Chocolate Cake: This is a flourless cake. With 54 per cent dark chocolate and 0 per cent guilt, this is great for weight watchers and those with gluten allergy. It is crumbly and the dark cocoa after-taste is blissful. You can add some chocolate ganache for extra indulgence.
Basque Cheesecake: The mother of all cheesecakes, here is a melt-in-the-mouth pastry, a Spanish speciality. Each bite has a caramel-flavoured, slightly toasted creamy mouthfeel.
Double Chocolate Chip Cookies: Who can say no to these loaded cookies? Chocolate-flavoured cookies get a level up with chocolate chips and chunks that melt in each bite. A sprinkling of sea salt marries all the flavours together.
