For Singapore’s 60th National Day (SG60), Tiong Bahru Bakery (TBB) collaborates with iconic heritage hawker centre Lau Pa Sat for a limited-time menu filled with nostalgic local flavours.
The SG60 menu will be available for a month-long period from August 1 to 31, 2025, at all Tiong Bahru Bakery outlets islandwide.
Five pastries complete the TBB x Lau Pa Sat SG60 menu. They are Satay White Chocolate Kouign Amann, Satay Beef Croissant, Nasi Sambal Danish, Milo Dinosaur Shio Pan, and Teh C Shio Pan.
Tiong Bahru Bakery approached this capsule menu by applying French baking techniques and bold local twists. The collaboration between TBB and Lau Pa Sat is anchored by the development of a special satay base sauce, which was then adapted by TBB’s R&D team for both sweet and savoury pastry creations.
Why Satay? Because it pays homage to the classic street-style versions found at Lau Pa Sat’s iconic Satay Street. The collaboration rendition is adapted to complement the collection’s sweet-savoury creations.
Taste-wise, it is a rich, peanut-forward sauce with a warm, aromatic spice profile, balanced by a gentle sweetness and a hint of smokiness.

Teh C Shio Pan
TBB’s French butter Shio Pan will be filled with a fragrant, tea-infused, lightly sweetened cream, inspired by Singapore’s favourite tea break classic.

Shio Pans will be available only at these selected outlets: Centrepoint, Foothills (Fort Canning), Plaza Singapura, Raffles City and VivoCity. Prices for the pastries will range from S$5 (RM21.08) to S$12 (RM50.60).
TBB x CMCR SG60 Sip & Stroll
Also for the SG60 celebrations, Tiong Bahru Bakery and sister brand Common Man Coffee Roasters (CMCR) will host a café-hopping trail, allowing visitors to rediscover Singapore.
This TBB x CMCR SG60 Sip & Stroll event invites diners to obtain a Sip & Stroll map at all TBB and CMCR outlets and collect stamps at each stop, from 1 August. Most of the featured stops are TBB cafés near Singapore’s most iconic landmarks, such as St. Andrew’s Cathedral, Fort Siloso, and Geylang Serai Market, turning every coffee break into a mini cultural adventure.
After collecting five unique stamps, a reward of six S$10 (RM42.16) vouchers can be redeemed at any TBB and CMCR outlet will be given to successful participants. Each visit also comes with a complimentary coffee with a minimum $6 (RM25.30) spend – a nostalgic nod to the old-school loyalty card, refreshed for today’s café culture.
