“REALLY DISLIKED BANANA BREAD” BEFORE CREATION OF BANELÉ
Interestingly, Priscilla said she “really disliked banana bread” at the time, but her husband, Rui Xiang Toh, 35, an orthopaedic surgeon at Singapore General Hospital, loved it.
“Everywhere we went, he would keep making me try banana bread, but I find it very floury and cake-y, which I don’t like, so I wanted to make a version that I would eat,” she explained.
ACCIDENTAL CREATION OF BANELÉ AFTER NEAR-BURNING INCIDENT
Thus, she began trying out different banana bread recipes with her daughter at home, till one day, she accidentally created her first Banelé prototype.
“Once, I was making banana bread and forgot about it in the oven,” Priscilla recounted. “I was like, ‘oh my god, it’s burnt!’, but when I checked, it was actually crusty on the outside, which I thought made it taste even better.”
