Sweets For My Sweet 🍭

After trying an array of ice cream delights in Singapore, @tokyomilkcheesesg 𝘾𝙊𝙒 𝘾𝙊𝙒 𝙎𝙐𝙉𝘿𝘼𝙀 is still my favourite 𝘾𝙝𝙚𝙚𝙨𝙚 𝙎𝙤𝙛𝙩 𝘾𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙢! 😋🇯🇵 🧀🧀🧀

It's not easy to find a dessert with the perfect balance of sweet and savoury, and paired with a 𝙎𝙖𝙡𝙩 & 𝘾𝙖𝙢𝙚𝙢𝙗𝙚𝙧𝙩 𝘾𝙤𝙤𝙠𝙞𝙚 (+ $0.50/pc), this is the perfect treat to kick off the weekend! 😋🌈🌈

Whenever we make the journey back to the West, @lees_confectionery has always been one of our fave go-to places for handmade artisan cakes and delicious coffee.

Wanted to try the 𝙊𝙐𝙉𝙄💜, but as luck would have it, the last one went to the guy in front of us who ordered one of everything on the menu, so we had to give it a miss this time.. *laughcry* 😝🙃🙃

I wish I could explain the intricacies of every detailed work of art that's painstakingly plated and put together upon each order, but I'll let the photos, and your taste buds experience this for yourself!

𝙊𝙏𝙏𝙊 🟢 - Nutty 𝘗𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘰 𝘊𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮 wrapped around an 𝘖𝘳𝘢𝘯𝘨𝘦 𝘊𝘢𝘬𝘦 🍊 centre, and encased in an artistically constructed 𝘈𝘭𝘮𝘰𝘯𝘥 𝘛𝘢𝘳𝘵 🥜shell. Not too sweet, and every mouthful was an enjoyable medley of textures that complemented each ingredient beautifully. Special shoutout to the accompanying 𝘗𝘪𝘴𝘵𝘢𝘤𝘩𝘪𝘰 𝘐𝘤𝘦 𝘊𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮 on the side! 😋💚💚💚

𝙈𝘼𝘿𝙐 🐝 - A classic flavour that we've returned for again and again - 𝘏𝘰𝘳𝘭𝘪𝘤𝘬𝘴 𝘔𝘰𝘶𝘴𝘴𝘦🍦/ 𝘏𝘰𝘯𝘦𝘺 𝘊𝘢𝘳𝘢𝘮𝘦𝘭🍯🍮/ 𝘊𝘰𝘳𝘯𝘧𝘭𝘢𝘬𝘦𝘴🍪. Malty and subtly sweet, it's a little bite of comfort, especially when paired with a dollop of 𝘔𝘪𝘭𝘬 𝘐𝘤𝘦 𝘊𝘳𝘦𝘢𝘮.

The bad news is... They are closing down soon, and their last day will be on 1st October 2023... 😭😭 So, please support these talented and passionate bakers while you still have the chance! 🇸🇬♥️♥️

@ikeasingapore has always been one of our go-to places for a simple yet satisfying meal, and I was so glad to get my hands on their new 🍓𝙎𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙬𝙗𝙚𝙧𝙧𝙮 𝙏𝙖𝙧𝙩 ($4.90)! 💛💙💛💙

While these 🍓 are not the biggest and sweetest, they went incredibly well with the semi-sweet cookie crust and just the right amount of custard... And, if I'm not wrong, a hint of White Chocolate? 😋🍫

For this affordable price, I'm definitely returning again and again for this yummy dessert!

And if you'd like to try this delicious new offering, @ikeasingapore is running a promotional price of $4.00 for this 🍓𝙎𝙩𝙧𝙖𝙬𝙗𝙚𝙧𝙧𝙮 𝙏𝙖𝙧𝙩🍓 from 13-14 May 2023, so head down to IKEA this weekend to try it for yourself and I hope you'll like it too! 🙆🏻‍♀️💛💙

I've never been much of a chocolate fanatic, but this Valrhona Dark Choc & Sea Salt Caramel Brookie ($6.40) may have just turned me into a convert! 😍🍫🖤🖤

I mean, what could go wrong with Valrhona Chocolate, an ooooozy Chocolate Lava Core paired with a slightly savoury cookie base? 🤤🍪🍫🍫🍫

Finally fulfilled one of my birthday wishes of visiting the breathtakingly beautiful @atlasbarsg , and am soooo happy that we made it in time for their 𝙁𝙚𝙨𝙩𝙞𝙫𝙚 𝘼𝙛𝙩𝙚𝙧𝙣𝙤𝙤𝙣 𝙏𝙚𝙖! 😍🎅🏻🎄❤️❤️❤️

TBH I didn't really have much expectations for the food here, but those little morsels were surprisingly delicious! 😋❤️❤️

The only downside is that the service was far from stellar during our visit, and they seemed to be rather short-staffed, leaving guests stranded at the reception for quite some time (about 15min?) even after the designated booking time, then asked to take back the table 2 hours after the designated booking time. 🥹 Thankfully, they were kind enough to extend our table for 30min since I reallyyyyy wanted to try those famous 𝙈𝙖𝙧𝙩𝙞𝙣𝙞𝙨🍸❤️❤️, and I didn't want to down them all in 5 minutes without savouring the love and care that had been poured into each one.

And I have to say, if there's ONE thing you HAVE to try here, definitely go for the Cocktails/ Martinis/ Anything Gin! 🍸❤️

Filled with dense cream which was pretty much tasteless, everything was overpowered by the strong flavours of Banana 🍌, even the chocolate sauce provided did nothing to balance out the flavours. Highly approve of the Chocolate Gelato served on the side though, it was smooth and chocolatey and was the highlight of this dessert.

This is not your traditional Italian rendition, but it's been beautifully crafted into a tantalizing treat that's full of airy goodness, yet packs a punch with a creamy kick of @kahlua 😍🌴🥃

Topped with crunchy chocolate balls and a dusting of cocoa powder, this beauty isn't too sweet despite the different nuances of chocolate embedded in it's various layers. Will be back again for this!

The pancakes here are pretty dense unlike light and airy Japanese souffle pancakes which I have a soft spot for, so would recommend to share! 😋💕

While the quality of the food here isn't high on the wow factor, they are alllll sooooo pretty and taste pretty decent so it's worth a visit for the experience!

Been seeing rave reviews about this place, and couldn't resist getting a double scoop even though we were stuffed from lunch! 😝😋 I mean, there's always space for dessert! Mwarharhar!!!

𝙋𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙤 💚 (Premium flavour)
𝙃𝙤𝙪𝙟𝙞𝙘𝙝𝙖 🫖 (Premium flavour)

Sadly, the ice cream melted soooo fast and was already dripping by the time we crossed the road, that we were practically slurping it down in a rush to finish it before it became a wet sloppy mess, so we didn't get to savour the flavours well... 😅

I did feel that the flavours here are fairly muted for our taste, and while the ice cream was yummy, I'd probably just pop by our go-to BOP for our pistachio fix next time! 😘🍨🍦🍭🍭

🇯🇵🐄 𝘾𝙊𝙒 𝘾𝙊𝙒 𝙎𝙐𝙉𝘿𝘼𝙀 🐄🧀

If there's one thing I miss most about Japan, it's the yummy soft serves 🍦made with creamy Japanese milk...
But for now, @tokyomilkcheesesg is my go-to for their signature 𝘾𝙊𝙒 𝘾𝙊𝙒 𝙎𝙐𝙉𝘿𝘼𝙀! 😋💋 Being the cheese fanatic that I am, this is my winning combo:

𝘾𝙝𝙚𝙚𝙨𝙚 𝙎𝙤𝙛𝙩 𝘾𝙧𝙚𝙖𝙢- Made with 2 kinds of cream cheese and Hokkaido Gouda cheese, a perfect balance of sweet and savoury.🧀🧀
.
𝙈𝙞𝙡𝙠 𝘾𝙝𝙚𝙚𝙨𝙚𝙘𝙖𝙠𝙚 - 2 layers of cheese mousse and milk mousse made with cream cheese from both France 🇫🇷and Hokkaido🇯🇵. This was served semi-frozen, but I personally prefer it a little softer.

𝙎𝙖𝙡𝙩 & 𝘾𝙖𝙢𝙚𝙢𝙗𝙚𝙧𝙩 𝘾𝙤𝙤𝙠𝙞𝙚 - Think of this as the 𝙘𝙝𝙚𝙚𝙨𝙮 upgraded version of 白い恋人, made with fresh Hokkaido milk 🇯🇵and French Guérande salt 🇫🇷, stuffed with a layer of camembert cheese chocolate.

Cheese. 🧀Japan. 🇯🇵France.🇫🇷

What an absolute winning combination!!! For fans of sweet and savoury desserts, this Sundae definitely hits all the right spots! 😋💋💋💋

Trying to beat the relentless heat and humidity of Singapore's eternal summer, a refreshing @dopadopa.sg 𝙂𝙚𝙡𝙖𝙩𝙤 is certainly a welcome treat! 😍💛🌼

It's been a long time since my last visit, back when @leonardong.9 first started the business with his awesome handroasted 𝙋𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙤 𝙂𝙚𝙡𝙖𝙩𝙤 made with a ton of love. ♥️ Fast forward a few years, and my taste buds tingled with happiness after such a long hiatus of this yummilicious treat.

𝙋𝙞𝙨𝙩𝙖𝙘𝙝𝙞𝙤 💚 - Creamy and nutty with bits of pistachio, this oh-so-comforting taste is one that my heart remembers from the first time I tried it.

𝙁𝙚𝙧𝙧𝙚𝙧𝙤 𝙍𝙤𝙘𝙝𝙚𝙧🍫 - We really loved this rendition of one of our favourite classic chocolates @ferrerorocherit 😋🇮🇹 Smooth, yet packed a punch with a satisfying hazelnut flavour without the saccharine sweetness offered by other establishments. Butttt why is the amount of gelato scooped so much lesser than the one given for the Pistachio cone? 🥺🥺 We could definitely have a lot more! Haha... 😆♥️♥️

What can I say? My heart goes ᗪOᑭᗩᗪOᑭᗩ for this locally made ice cream anytime! 😋♥️♥️♥️
