MEET THE OWNER: MARIAH GRACE, GRACE PATISSERIE
“Originally from Singapore, Mariah Grace grew up in Myanmar and New Zealand. She began baking at eight years old, making cupcakes and cookies and helping her mother in the kitchen. As she grew into her teens, Grace explored more complex recipes such as macarons.”
SINGAPORE MEETS PARIS: THE CUISINE CLASH THAT INSPIRED GRACE PATISSERIE

“Gorgeous Grace Patisserie is transforming into a ramen and dessert bar for the month of August, collaborating with exclusive ramen joint, Townhouse Ramen.

HOW GRACE PATISSERIE MAKES ITS CANELE
“In the hands of a less courageous cook, Bordeaux's tiny fluted cake emerges golden brown and disappointingly soft. So tricky is the making of an authentic canele, in fact, that Melbourne patissier Phillippa Grogan would even say it has to be in your blood.
Proving this assertion happily wrong are the crunchy, gorgeously textbook-perfect caneles pumped out daily by Mariah Grace at her newly opened Grace Patisserie opposite Moore Wilson's in Wellington's Tory St.”
