10 best bomboloni bakeries in Singapore that’ll get you utterly stuffed

I have a sweet tooth that cannot be denied, and all it took was a single glance for me to fall in love with the bomboloni. Also known as stuffed donuts, these little morsels of delight originated from Italy.

Its name is etymologically linked to the Italian word for bomb (bomba), which I suppose is because it looks like a bomb, with its round appearance and stuffed cream that overflows through its single opening at the top. Or perhaps is it referring to it being a calorie bomb? Hmm, I wonder.

It’s most well-known for being stuffed with delicious sweet and savoury fillings and dusted with a fine layer of granulated sugar or cinnamon. Get the ball rolling with these 10 best bomboloni bakeries in Singapore.

Sourbombe Artisanal Bakery’s bakes are too pretty to eat, but then again, they’re so delicious that they’re worth every calorie.

Be sure to pre-order its boxes of Sourbombe Box of 3 (S$15.50), Sourbombe Box of 6 (S$29) and Sourbombe Box of 9 (S$44), which comes with fixed but super unique flavours such as Matcha Black Sesame, Strawberry Milk and Lavender Lime Mascarpone.

I discovered Puffs & Peaks on TikTok, with multiple reviews praising its wide range of flavours and of course, the ever-famous Insta-worthy shot of tearing into the bomboloni to show its unique fillings.

Puffs & Peaks is a neighbourhood bakery and you can find it on the second floor of Tampines Central Community Complex

Its Donuts are sold at S$3.80 each, with permanent flavours including its well-loved 70% Chocolate, Vanilla Bean and Earl Grey. It also launches seasonal flavours, such as Hazelnut Praline Chocolate and Strawberries & Cream, which are priced at S$4 each.

I personally loved its Hazelnut Praline Chocolate for its nutty and rich flavours. It tasted like a ferrero rocher, with a velvety-like texture that made it absolutely delightful to bite into. The donut itself was soft and fluffy, and went hand-in-hand with the creamy filling.

The Fat Kid Bakery is run by 24-year-old self-taught baker Ariel Tang, whose baking journey started 10 years ago when she first baked brownies for her friends and family. 

Its brick-and-mortar store can be found on the first floor of Floravista, a condominium at Ang Mo Kio, offering a selection of baked goodies such as Box of 4 (Sourdough Bombos) (S$15.20), where you can pick and choose between sweet flavours like Earl Grey Milk Tea, Summerberries and Sea Salt Maple.

In May 2022, The Fat Kid Bakery launched a series of savoury bombolonis as well. Its Savoury Series: Box of 4 (Sourdough Bombos) (S$26) comes with fixed flavours like Spicy Egg Mayo, Tuna Nori Crunch, Sour Cream & Onion and Roasted Garlic Mascarpone.

9. We Love Delish

On top of the usual bomboloni flavours like chocolate, Nutella and strawberry jam, We Love Delish is well-known for offering a flavour that Singaporeans will either love or hate— the Durian Pengat (S$29 for 10, S$39 for 15).

Pengat is a dessert that has roots in the Muslim and Peranakan communities, referring to fruits or vegetables cooked in a concoction of coconut milk and sugar. This smooth durian puree-like pairs well with the pillowy, overstuffed bombolonis, which have been nicknamed as “hotel pillow doughnuts” because it’s apparently as soft as hotel pillows!

Given that its owner is an ex-hotel catering sales manager, I figure she’d know best as to how luxury hotel pillows feel like. 

Do note that We Love Delish’s bombolonis are only available via pre-order, and can be collected in person or through delivery.
