Home Baker · Klang Valley, Malaysia
Custom cakes & bakes for every celebration.
From a child’s birthday wonder to a wedding centrepiece — every order is handled with the same quiet seriousness that has defined Melissa’s craft for over two decades.
The baker behind the brand
Melissa didn’t learn to bake in a culinary school. She learned it at home, watching her grandmother Josephine Narcis — a woman of Thai-Portuguese heritage whose kitchen was a place of patience, precision, and quiet pride. That inheritance shows in everything Melissa makes.
What began as a teenager’s love for the finished product grew into a craft that now spans custom celebration cakes, wedding flowers, gift curation, and professional F&B consulting. She has headed the kitchen of a church catering programme serving plated three-course meals for 200+ guests per weekend, and has consulted on café menus and kitchen operations across Klang Valley.
Melissa will not put her name on something she isn’t proud of. That is not a policy — it is simply who she is.
“If you are not passionate about it, don’t do it.”
— Melissa Johnson, SugarspunpoppyWhat we make

@ sugarspunpoppyFor F&B businesses
Melissa’s consulting work comes from the same place as her baking — a genuine passion for food done properly, and an instinct for what works in a real kitchen under real pressure.
She has developed menus, standardised kitchen operations, and improved plating and presentation for F&B businesses in Klang Valley. Her approach is practical, not theoretical.
Practical expertise built in real kitchens, not classrooms.
