Editor’s Note

Last updated 29 May 2026

Sweetlands Confectionery & Bakery is a classic, old-school bakery known for its freshly baked, preservative-free bread and generously sized buns.

We think it's a solid choice for those seeking traditional local bread, especially for making kaya toast at home.

Reviewers consistently praise the soft, pillowy texture of the buns, often noting a pleasant sweetness.

While some find the kaya and orh nee buns overly sweet, the sweet potato bun, priced at around $1.30 when part of the 3-for-$4 deal, comes highly recommended for its small, flavourful chunks.

The bakery operates almost 24/7, with evenings being a particularly good time to visit as loaves are baked for island-wide distribution.

We'd recommend Sweetlands for a taste of nostalgia and reliable, fresh bread, but perhaps stick to the less sweet bun options.

What customers say

Sweetlands Confectionery & Bakery is praised as an old-school bakery offering fresh, soft, and generously portioned buns and traditional bread.

Customers particularly enjoy the chicken floss, mashed potato & cheese, garlic, butter sugar, and kaya buns, noting their delicious taste and suitability with coffee.

While some find certain filled buns, like orh nee and kaya, overly sweet, the sweet potato bun with chunks is a standout.

The bakery is also known for its fresh daily bread, often baked overnight, and the presence of pet tortoises outside.

Old school bakery! You can smell freshly baked bread once you arrived. The portion of individual buns is huge! Nice soft buns.

The chicken floss bun, mashed potato & cheese bun, and garlic bun were all delicious and fresh! The buns have a light sweetness that pairs perfectly with coffee.
