You’ve seen them all over Instagram—colourful pops of bursting bombolonis with lively onomatopoeic captions. This lively vitality characterises the new Sourbombe Artisanal Bakery founded by Genevieve Lee, 2018 MasterChef Singapore runner-up. 

Ms Lee created her Sourbombe bombolonis by combining the concepts of sourdough bread with Italian bombolonis (custard-filled doughnuts). Her innovation was motivated by her desire to find a doughnut recipe that does not result in the often overly sweet and greasy options in Singapore.
