With our tropical weather, dessert is practically mandatory. Luckily for us we’ve got a wealth of choices, from western style desserts to locally flavoured ones. The abundance of choices makes hunting for desserts quite overwhelming, but we’ve done part of the hard work by narrowing down ten places you can consider. You’ll just have to munch away at one of the top 10 places for dessert in Singapore and tell us how delicious it was.


1) Apiary

Ciel Pâtisserie

Who says a delectable dessert has to be expensive? Go to Ciel Patisserie and you’ll see that’s not the case. You can get a slice of heaven (Ciel means sky or heaven in French!) for a reasonable price here, from cheesecakes and tarts to shortcakes and madeleines. There are even savoury quiches for those who don’t have a sweet tooth. Founder Chara has certification from the renowned Le Cordon Bleu Paris.

Oblong

If you’re screaming for ice-cream, head on over to Maju Avenue for a quick fix. From Instagram worthy waffles, to the simplicity of a solid scoop of ice-cream, it’s a great way to forget the heat of Singapore and bask in the tantalizing coolness. It’s not all rainbow sprinkles and pastels though, this has to be an ice-cream shop even the goths will adore, with skull imagery throughout.
