Hiap Joo Bakery launches vending machine in Singapore
Just like every other Singaporean who frequently visits Johor Bahru, I always make a pit stop at Hiap Joo Bakery so I can get their banana cake. The good news is we no longer have to cross the border to get our fix, as there is now a food vending machine in Singapore that dispenses this famous treat!
Hiap Joo Bakery: Famous JB Banana Cake With Over 100 Years Of History
The vending machine, which is located at Senja Hawker Centre in Bukit Panjang, dispenses Hiap Joo’s highly coveted Banana Cake, priced at $8.60 per box. Though it’s more costly than what you can get in JB, it’s the closest thing we can get to an actual outlet in Singapore, so we’ll gladly take it.

Hiap Joo’s signature Banana Cake is praised for being incredibly moist and fluffy, with a pleasant sweetness from the use of ripe, good-quality bananas instead of artificial flavourings. These cakes are also baked fresh every morning in a wood-fired oven, lending the bakes a delicious toastiness.
The bakery is also known for their selection of soft buns containing fillings such as Coconut and Red Bean, which we’re hoping will also be available in the machines soon. Considering how the original Hiap Joo in JB draws long queues each morning, we recommend you hurry down ASAP to get your fix before it runs out for the day!
