Dine-in and enjoy the newly-launched Italian Sandwiches at the all-new Westgate and Tampines 1 outlets
Singapore, 17 December 2025 – Homegrown cheesecake specialist Cat & the Fiddle expands its offerings with a warm, gooey Freshly Baked Basque Cheesecake, baked fresh daily and exclusively at its new concept stores in Westgate and Tampines 1. This new concept caters to a growing popularity of warm cakes, while staying true to the brand’s signature cheesecake recipes.
Five interesting ways to enjoy the Freshly Baked Basque Cheesecake
Basque cheesecakes trace their origins to the 1990s, distinguished by their high-temperature bake that caramelises the exterior while keeping the centre irresistibly creamy and custardy. Its soft, molten centre and crustless, charred surface make it a uniquely indulgent and highly sought-after dessert. To elevate the basque cheesecake experience, Cat & the Fiddle has introduced five interesting ways to enjoy it:
- Enjoy it warm with a scoop of ice cream
- Turn it into a Basque Cheesecake Affogato with a shot of espresso
- Blowtorch the top for a crème brûlée-style finish
- Dip crackers or breadsticks into the molten centre
- Spread it over bread for a satisfying snack
Soon, dessert lovers will also be able to select the level of sweetness or opt for a sugar-alternative in the bake-to-order basque cheesecakes. While sugar is essential for binding the batter and forming the base of desserts, Cat & the Fiddle aims to help health-conscious consumers enjoy these indulgent cheesecakes while staying mindful of their wellness goals.
Crusty, soft schiacciata sandwiches
The new concept stores will also feature a cosy dine-in seating, where diners can enjoy Italian-themed sandwiches, prepared in the same sumptuous, generous style that has taken the internet by storm. The large, thin Tuscan schiacciata bread, which is crunchy on the outside and soft on the inside, is used for each sandwich, filled generously with protein, fresh greens, and a drizzle of olive oil. Bread enthusiasts and casual diners can choose from four mouth-watering variations – Turkey Ham, Honey Baked Chicken Ham, Beef Pastrami and Smoked Salmon Schiacciata Sandwiches. These sandwiches will launch at the Tampines 1 New Concept Store end-December 2025.
