Story
From Japan to Singapore
Henri Charpentier’s story begins in 1969 in the city of Ashiya, Japan. Named after the renowned French chef Henri Charpentier, the brand quickly gained a reputation for its delicate fusion of traditional French pâtisserie and Japanese craftsmanship. Over the years, Henri Charpentier has become a beloved household name in Japan, celebrated for its dedication to creating sweets that bring joy to every occasion. With over 100 stores in Japan, the brand’s artisanal cakes, pastries, and sweets have been enjoyed by generations of dessert lovers.
In 2014, Henri Charpentier took a bold step by opening our first international store in Dempsey Hill – the beginning of a new chapter. Singapore’s vibrant culinary scene and discerning taste for fine desserts was the perfect launch pad for our brand’s international expansion. From the very beginning, the Singaporean public has embraced Henri Charpentier’s unique offering of meticulously crafted French-Japanese confections.
Signature Products with a Singaporean Twist
Henri Charpentier is committed to creating freshly baked cakes and pastries tailored to the tastes of the local market. This dedication to quality means that every item you see in stores is baked fresh daily, rather than being imported from Japan. By focusing on local production, we are able to innovate and introduce flavours unique to Singapore. Among these creations are the Baked Singapore Sling Financier, and the Pandan Madeleine, a tropical twist on a classic French favourite.
A Decade of Sweet Flavors in Singapore
Over the past 10 years, Henri Charpentier has expanded its presence in Singapore. From Orchard, to River Valley and into the CBD, each of our store’s reflect our commitment to excellence. Over 60% of our sales in Singapore come from our fresh cakes, such as the beloved Shortcake and Double Cheesecake. These cakes are handcrafted daily by our team of chef’s, using the highest quality fresh ingredients – perfect for your special celebrations.
Looking Forward
As we celebrate our 10th anniversary in Singapore, Henri Charpentier continues to innovate and grow. With plans to open new stores in 2025, we remain dedicated to bringing our customers the finest French-Japanese confections, freshly baked with care, and crafted with a passion for being the best. Join us as we celebrate the last decade and look forward to an even sweeter future.
