Desserts to Die For

Celine’s has moved to a new shopfront with seats - so happy for them and all of us around the Novena MRT area. Go for the pistachio gelato! The other flavours are good but you “die die must try” the pistachio.

Chocoholics in the Novena area can enjoy both Choc Origin (United Square) and Awfully Chocolate (Square 2) desserts/ cakes. Choc Origin has seats and this helps as enjoying chocolate should be a social experience! I think the flavour of the dark gelato could be more chocolate-rich - but then this balance here would be fine for most - I am a little extreme. The ice cream “cloying” consistency is good. Awfully chocolate’s Hei is more pricey and you pay and go.

While I love the vibe at Eagle Wings@King Albert Park mall, the ice cream at cosy Kindred Folk just steps away is gorgeously delectable and rich! Our fav flavours - the dark Belgium choc and pure hazelnut - eat them together, and it’s cool Nutella++ heavenly bliss. The ice cream is made with pride, and I’d pick Kindred Folk over so many other ice cream parlours in Singapore! 😍😍😍

This stylish Bananier cake from Antoinette contains “flambe banana” with rum, caramel parfait, dark chocolate mousse, chocolate genoise, milk, chocolate feuilletine.

Bye Cold Stone, we will really miss you. Every visit generated happy memories, and we have amassed so many over the years. Last day of operations at VivoCity today. 😢 Queues have eased these ~ 2 weeks so go early today for your favourite flavours!

This “Valrhona brownie” on the menu turned out to be more like a dense ganache! Ultra rich, ultra “gao”, ultra chocolatey. Deep and dark. It is not a brownie- there is no sponge. No matter what it should be called - this is heavenly if you are a *chronic* chocoholic. If you like light Japanese-type desserts, light mousses and fluffy cakes, stay away. Enjoy this with a scoop of ice cream at this lovely cafe/ restaurant that has something for everyone.
