“It doesn’t matter to us how much [Charmaine] makes. Most importantly, she’s working hard at the career that she’s chosen and towards her own achievements," said Benz, who is a Singaporean PR.
Charmaine, who was born in Singapore because of her Singaporean mum, added that the total amount that they have put into the business is “HK$6-7mil", which works out to be about S$1-1.2mil, and she and her dad have plans to open a third outlet selling specialty snacks.
She started her home-based bakery when the pandemic disrupted her plans to enroll for her master’s degree in the UK.
As her online business flourished, Charmaine decided to open a physical store, which now has a loyal following.

Singaporeans really give no excuses 🫡 Even MRT rides become workout time in our health-conscious nation 💪 Videos circulating online show people doing pull-ups, push-ups and other exercises on MRT trains, turning their daily commute into an unexpected workout session. While some netizens found the clips amusing and proof that Singaporeans are serious about staying fit, others questioned whether exercising on public transport could be unsafe or disruptive to fellow passengers. The clips have also reminded some of past fitness campaigns in Singapore, including public workout challenges held at MRT stations, showing just how strong the country’s fitness culture has become 🇸🇬 #8dayssg #8dayssgtrending #sgtiktok #MRT #Fitness

K-pop dream vs Singapore reality 👀 If a Singaporean gets accepted into ADOR… what happens to NS? South Korean K-pop label ADOR is bringing its global auditions to Southeast Asia, including Singapore. But for Singaporean male trainees, one potential hurdle could be National Service in Singapore, which requires male citizens to enlist at around age 18. In South Korea, members of BTS were allowed to defer their military enlistment for several years due to their cultural impact, though they eventually still had to serve. So if a Singaporean were to debut in K-pop through ADOR, should similar deferment be considered — or should the rules remain the same? #8dayssg #8dayssgtrending #kpop #NewJeans #Ador
