Baking has become one of Singapore’s most popular hobbies — and for many, a pathway into a rewarding culinary or home-business career.
If you’re planning to take your first baking class, you’ve probably come across two common types of WSQ baking courses: Basic and Classic.
Singapore’s Clean and Green vision isn’t just a slogan — it’s a nationwide standard that demands discipline, structure, and the right professionals to uphold it. Among them, the Environmental Control Coordinator (ECC) plays a key role in ensuring that our built environments — from malls to food establishments — remain safe, hygienic, and compliant.
If you work in Singapore’s food industry, WSQ Food Safety certification is a must — but the right level depends on your role and career goals. Choosing the correct course saves time, meets SFA requirements and positions you for promotion. This guide explains practical differences between Level 1, Level 2 and Level 3, who each course suits, and how to plan the next steps in your F&B career.
In Singapore’s competitive F&B scene, great food alone is no longer enough. Diners today expect not just a meal — but a complete experience.
From the moment a customer walks in to the time they leave, service quality determines whether they’ll come back or leave a review that shapes your brand reputation.
Working in Singapore’s vibrant F&B industry offers exciting opportunities — from hawker centres and cafés to restaurants and catering businesses.

Singapore’s F&B industry is world-famous — from Michelin-starred restaurants to hawker stalls that draw tourists daily. But behind every delicious plate served is a responsibility: keeping food safe for consumers.
That’s why the Singapore Food Agency (SFA) makes it mandatory for food handlers to undergo training and certification. But here’s the problem: many workers and even business owners remain confused about what course is required, how to register, how much it costs, and what happens if you don’t comply.
