Since Seriously Keto’s opening as an online ketogenic bakery in mid-February this year, the well-loved brand has amply earned for itself the revered reputation of delivering delicious keto-friendly desserts. Created by founder Janti Joso Brasali, the array of healthy choice offerings of low carb, gluten-free and zero sugar desserts have been extremely well-received by those looking to cut carbs, gluten and sugar out of their diet.
Moving beyond an online bakery, Seriously Keto is happy to announce that the lifestyle brand will now have a space of its own on Seah Street! In the new place, Seriously Ketoopens a keto retail store selling raw materials and other ready-to-eat keto products.

The best news? To celebrate the opening of Singapore’s first and only ketogenic hub, Seriously Keto will be launching a suite of exciting brand-new keto-compliant items! For her latest menu update, Janti continues to draw from her treasure troves of ketogenic recipes to bring more options to health-conscious individuals looking to indulge without guilt. On top of their usual well-loved keto-friendly desserts, look forward the savouries, from garlic pretzels to ricotta spinach quiche and rosemary loafs; the sweets, from pecan tigresses to double chocolate chip cookies; as well as beverages, from Thai iced tea with jelly and coffee with coconut jelly. There are also two new additions to their popular KetoSpreads, featuring flavours such as the condensed milk and chocolate.
A passionate baker and the founder of Seriously Keto, Janti Brasali decided to open a wholly keto bakery to offer low-carb alternatives for health-conscious individuals to enjoy while dining in cafes hotels and/or restaurants. On a ketogenic diet herself, she encountered difficulties avoiding carb-loaded foods outside and embarked on a creative journey to perfect recipes that were keto-friendly, for all to enjoy. Janti has also written a book with 14 simple ketogenic recipes to eat her KetoBuns with to allow consumers to maintain ketosis or aft burning, a necessary part of the Keto-diet. These books are available at all 14 Singapore National Library Board’s public libraries.
