Jaslyn Cakes, Epicurean Macarons, Lexy Brownies & Fat Blossom Cupcakes

Jaslyn Rangson & David Lee, two Malaysians who trained at Le Cordon Bleu London, returned to Kuala Lumpur this year, bringing home their passion for patisserie produce. 

First up, Jaslyn crafts cuties like carrot baby-cakes & recently started selling them at a pop-up booth in Bangsar Village's Wondermama. Available through December.

Pour some sugar on us! From Western faves like the red velvet, madeleine & chocolate fondant to an Asian-inspired coconut-pandan cake, these freshly baked creations will likely satisfy the sweet tooth. Let them eat cake!

Peanut butter & black sesame macarons are also available, creamier than expected.

Next: erstwhile engineer David's Epicurean brand, which specializes in macarons.

Intensely flavored & lusciously textured. Maldon sea salt caramel, Twinings Earl Grey, coconut, vanilla-olive oil, pistachio-cherry, pandan-kaya, raspberry-rose & more.

Macarons can be purchased straight from David (see www.facebook.com/epicurean.my) or at Taman Tun Dr Ismail's Love At First Bite cafe.

Hooray for home-based makers of mouthwatering marvels! Here's a bonus look at more sweets.

Ultra Fudge Brownies by Lexy. Built with bittersweet cacao, these brownies can be savored sundae-style at Bandar Utama's Paradox Art Cafe, but we hope supplier Lex Subramaniam.will offer them everywhere eventually.

Finally, Fat Blossom Cupcakes, which features fun combinations like toasted lemon & thyme, salted caramel & ginger, peanut butter & chocolate, pandan & more. Hit them up at www.facebook.com/TheFatBlossom.
