Social media trends come and go. But there’s one particular stay-home trend that has been getting many Instagram users excited lately. And it is none other than cooking!

This year, home-cooking is one of the latest stay-home trends.

Like many who are choosing to stay at home, some of us have already jumped on the bandwagon and started whipping up our very own Dalgona coffee, basque burnt cheesecake and froggy bread. With so many Instagram food accounts in Singapore riding the trend, it’s hard not to be inspired.

And no, we’re not exaggerating. Many home-cooks, professional chefs and cafes have been publishing some of the most alluring and delectable dishes on their pages that we just HAD to share them. Take a look at some of our picks by reading on.

What’s Baking?

Thanks to the internet, it is so much easier to get recipes and share your proud culinary creations. Even though some food & beverage business might have to temporarily halt or reduce operations, they can still use social media and other platforms to connect with their target audience.

Instead of selling their culinary creations, most organic culinary content now features solution-based ideas like recipes, helpful tips and even positive quotes or stories to brighten up a user’s day.

These trends point organic and paid social media content in the direction of support marketing; where objectives should focus on helping and encouraging rather than hard-selling.

Do you think this cooking-then-posting work-from-home trend will last?
