01The house

A small café in Melaka centred on slow living. Homemade cakes and drinks, alongside our love for books, music and handcrafted things.

Everything in the cabinet is baked here by a Le Cordon Bleu (Tokyo)–trained baker who loves baking for friends and family.

Come for a slice and a pot of tea, stay for a conversation. We'd like this to be a space where local artists can show their work, and where food, art and community come together.

“What is essential is invisible to the eye.”The fox, in The Little Prince — the story that gave us our fox. Coquelicot is French for poppy.
02The cabinet

Baked in small batches. Gone when it's gone.

The cabinet changes through the week. These are a few regulars; today's line-up goes up on Instagram.
