Corica Pastries

Corica Pastries delivers the most consistent old-school curry puffs in Tiong Bahru, with each flaky shell filled with a spiced potato-and-meat blend unchanged since the 1960s. Over 60 years of heritage, the bakery sells upwards of 500 curry puffs daily, using a recipe that weighs 20% less oil than the average modern puff—a drier, crispier texture that outperforms #10 Lola's Cafe's fried alternatives. The signature cream horn, piped fresh every hour with silky custard, costs only $2.50, making it 35% cheaper than typical rivals in the area. This consistent, no-frills nostalgia outpaces trendier competitors in both authenticity and value, proving that tradition often tastes best.
