Adding a Local Touch to the World-famous Mille Crêpes

Lady M started out in New York, with its very first 600 square feet cake boutique in New York’s Upper East Side in 2001. Since then, Lady M New York has expanded to 14 stores in the USA, 28 stores in Asia and amassed a following which includes domestic goddess Martha Stewart, to supermodel Linda Evangelista and Japanese fashion designer, Issey Miyake. As the pioneer of the well-loved Mille Crêpes, Lady M’s Signature Mille Crêpes features no less than twenty paper-thin handmade crêpes layered with ethereal light pastry cream, gently caramelized on top until golden. The Mille Crêpe is a combination of French pastry techniques with Japanese etiquette of precision and made with the finest and most premium ingredients from around the world, including UK and France. Lady M chose Singapore for its first debut in Asia with its very first prime duplex storefront located in Orchard Central. To date, there are 5 boutiques across various locations in Singapore, with the newest being Jewel Changi Airport. A new concept is in the pipeline as well.

While Lady M is best known for its evergreen cakes, few people are aware that there are special seasonal flavours every 1 to 2 months All cakes and confectionaries by Lady M are freshly made daily, contrary to the common impression that they are air-flown in from New York. Lady M uses only the premium imported ingredients to ensure that the best quality is served. Additionally, Lady M has its own unique method of ensuring the same consistency in size for each cake before they are released to the boutiques.
