Best Dessert Places in Singapore
June 7, 2010 | 31 Comments
Desserts make me happy, desserts make me smile, desserts are my best friend. Eating desserts is like a hobby to me. I like to go on a quest to find new dessert places in Singapore, and share them with my favourite people.
Here’s a list of the Best Dessert Places in Singapore.
Let me eat cake.
Antoinette is a Parisian pâtisserie and salon du thé by Chef Pang Kok Keong, who is one of Singapore’s best pastry chefs.
The French patisserie is a great place for a quiet afternoon high tea. If I lived near the Lavender area, I could imagine myself dropping by the Parisian tea salon every other day.
30 Penhas Road, Singapore
Tel: +65 6293 3121
All Good Things
7 Rodyk Street #01-30
The Watermark @ Robertson Quay
Tel: +65 6238 1086
With branches all over the Island, Bakerzin is the place that most people will think of when it comes to having desserts in Singapore. Some of the popular desserts (or rather my favorite deserts) at Bakerzin include: Chocolate Amer, Sweet Pleasure, and Warm Chocolate lava cake.
3 Temasek Boulevard
#B1-016 Suntec City Mall
Tel: +65 6338 4656
Bonheur Patisserie at Duxton road, is a fairly new confectionery in Singapore which specialises in customised wedding cakes. They also have a dine-in cafe where you can order a slice of cake for a nice afternoon high tea.
70 Duxton Road Singapore
Tel: +65 6221 1148
Nestled in a shop house on Bussorah street, B Bakery Singapore is a charming little patisserie, right in the middle of the Arab street area. The cakes are priced reasonably around $5 for a slice of cake, and the bakery also serves sandwiches.
15 Bussorah Street
Tel: +65 6293 9010
Brunetti
Brunetti is a famous coffee joint in Melbourne and it’s a nice addition to the Singapore food scene. The pasticceria and coffee bar takes up the space formerly occupied by whimsical restaurant Oomphatico’s, and it offers a wide variety of cakes and tarts. I’ll be blogging about it after I go back a few times to try all the cakes.
163 Tanglin Road
#01-35 Tanglin Mall
Tel: +65 6733 9088
When my friends ask me to suggest a place for desserts, I’d recommend them to go to Canele Patisserie – one of the best dessert places in Singapore.
1 Scotts Road
#01-01A Shaw Centre
Tel: +65 6738 9020
Flor Patisserie is a new Japanese Patisserie in Singapore, by Chef Yamashita, who left the popular Patisserie Glace to open his own dessert place at Duxton Hill. It is, without a doubt, one of my favourite patisseries in Singapore. The Strawberry Souffle is the must-try!
2 Duxton Hill #01-01 Singapore
Tel: +65 6223 8628
Grin Affair
3 Everton Park #01-77
Tel: +65 8282 7375
Jean-Philippe Darcis at Marina Bay Sands is a nice place to have Belgian waffle, macarons and a cup of tea. It is not as popular as the chichi TWG Salon (yet), so I will definitely go back and try the other macarons.
10 Bayfront Avenue, #01-38
The Shoppes at Marina Bay Sands
Tel: +65 6688 7202
Located at level 2 of Orchard Central, Jewels Artisan Chocolate has a pretty value for money tea set at $14.80++ which comes with a truffle, a slice of cake, a macaron, a scoop of ice cream and a pot of tea. If you are a fan of macarons, PLEASE TRY their Black Palm Island Salt flavour.
181 Orchard Road #02-31/32
Orchard Central Singapore
Tel: +65 6509 8998
Kki cafe is a nice place to enjoy a slice of cake while reading your favourite book. There is also The Little Drom Store, a quirky vintage store selling all sorts of random things.
7 Ann Siang Hill
Tel: +65 6225 6650
When it comes to chocolate desserts, no one does it better than Laurent Bernard Chocolatier. Formerly known as The Chocolate Factory, the newly renamed Laurent’s Café & Chocolate Bar has two branches at Robertson Quay and Portsdown road. Whenever I’m having dinner at the Robertson Quay restaurants, I always find it hard to decide between Canele Patisserie or Laurent Bernard for desserts.
5B Portsdown road
#01-02 Wessex Village Square
Tel: 6475 9410
What do I need to say about Marmalade Pantry? It is without a doubt, one of the most popular afternoon high teas (read: taitai hangout place) in Singapore.
If you like cupcakes, you must have the ones from Marmalade Pantry. Crumbly, moist and flavorful, Marmalade Pantry’s Rose and Limonata are the best cupcakes in Singapore. Some of the other desserts that I like are the chocolate truffle cake and salted caramel cheesecake.
2 Orchard Turn
#03-22 ION Orchard
Tel: +65 6734 2700
Max Brenner Chocolate Bar at Esplanade has the Best Chocolate Lava Cake in Singapore. The desserts there are relatively more expensive, but the satisfaction that you get in return is worth the price.
8 Raffles Avenue
#01-06/08 Esplanade Mall
Tel: +65 6235 9556
Obolo Patisserie
If you are in the East of Singapore, check out Obolo cake shop at the new 112 Katong Mall. Some of the must-try desserts are their cheesecake, noisette and macarons.
112 East Coast Road
#B1-11/29 112 Katong
Tel: +65 6636 1073
The strawberry souffle from Patisserie Glace is really really good. It is definitely one of my all time favourite cakes.
All the cakes here are priced at around $4 to $6 per slice. Note: the retail outlet at Icon Village is a take-away kiosk, it has no dine-in area.
12 Gopeng Street
#01-33/34 ICON Village
Tel: +65 6400 0247
Another new concept by Chef Pang’s Sugar Daddy group, Pique Nique is an American Cafe that serves simple cafe food like mac and cheese, burgers and fries. Be sure to try the Whoopie Pie (they are not French macarons!)
391A Orchard Road #B1-01/02
Takashimaya Shopping Centre
Ngee Ann City Tower A
Tel: +65 6238 6705
One of my favorite dessert cafe in Singapore is Prive Bakery at Keppel Bay. Besides all day brunch, the cafe serves a good selection of desserts which include: sticky date pudding, New York cheesecake and the popular Hazelnut Praline Royale.
2 Keppel Bay Vista
GF Marina @ Keppel Bay
Tel: 6776 0777
Formerly known as DeSte, Sweets Garibaldi at Mandarin Gallery is a new concept by the Garibaldi group of restaurants. Prices start from $4.50 for a slice to $28 for a whole cake.
333A Orchard Road
#02-26 Mandarin Gallery Singapore
Tel: +65 6737 3247
If you think that Beard Papa has the best cream puff in Singapore, just wait till you try the one from Tampopo Deli. Located at the basement of Liang Court, the Japanese bakery also bakes a very good chiffon cake that is available in cheese, matcha and coffee. Go on the hourly mark for their cream puffs, otherwise make a reservation before they are sold out.
177 River Valley road
#B1-16 Liang Court
Tel: +65 6338 7386
Believe it or not, The Connoisseur Concerto’s Dark Chocolate Cake is amongst the better ones that I’ve had in Singapore. I’d definitely go back again just for this. They also have an extremely value for money high tea set at just $12.90++.
360 Orchard Road #01-01
International Building Singapore
It was impossible not to drop by The Cheesecake Cafe after hearing from my friends that they have the best cheesecake in Singapore. Even though there’s not many selections on the menu to choose from, The Cheesecake Cafe is a great dessert cafe in the East of Singapore to chill out.
685 East Coast Road
Frankel Estate
Tel: +65 6448 7725
1 Caramel Patisserie used to be located at The Luxe at Handy road (besides The Cathay). They have since shifted to Rochester Park, sharing the space with their sister restaurant, 1 Rochester.
With only a few tables in a narrow rectangular space, 1 Caramel dessert boutique at Rochester Park is much smaller than before. But I like the cosy feel of the new outlet; it is a lovely dessert place to have a cup of tea and a slice of cake for a quiet afternoon high tea.
1 Rochester Park #02-01
Tel: +65 6774 1302
2am Dessert Bar is located at the fringe of Holland Village, and it is the perfect place for a romantic late night dessert treat.
21A Lorong Liput
Holland Village Singapore
Tel: +65 6291 9727
At the second level of Cluny Court (beside Island creamery at Serene centre), there is this new dessert place which serves one of the best warm chocolate lava cake in Singapore — 3 inch sin.
501 Bukit Timah Road #02-27
Cluny Court Singapore
Tel: +65 6314 1217

Classic cakes at sunset way – marble cheesecake
daily scope also at sunset way! ( ice creams)
June 7th, 2010 @ 11:24 am
TELL ME ABOUT IT! Desserts is and should be the main meal of the day! Haha. I’ve tried all but 3 on your list, and two of them are ones I wanna try the most – Patisserie Glace and Obolo. Then again, PG is pretty near my workplace I think, should go there one day during lunch to dapao desserts.
My fave dessert place – there is no fave cos dessert is eaten accordingly for every mood! Say a fruit tart from Delifrance hits the spot when you want something simple, or a rich chocolate cake from Lana or awfullychoc, or Canele’s strawberry shortcake or matcha cake when you want something light, a Tampopo creampuff when you’re happy to make you even happier…Er, you get the gist right? Right.
June 7th, 2010 @ 12:02 pm
Nooo. I don’t like canele.first I don’t know whether the gold paper on the choc cake is edible. 2nd, the blueberry tea taste like pokka bottled tea. Haha. Loves max brenner! The bald man!
June 7th, 2010 @ 3:33 pm
Delish! It’s must be a tough decision to choose only 10 out of countless shops
In Tokyo, for ex. to eat sweets used to be a girlie activity, but we can now see many boys enjoying in patisseries as they’re called “sweets danshi (boys)”. Glad to be able to share lovely food beyond gender 
June 7th, 2010 @ 4:24 pm
let’s not forget:
k.ki at 7 Ann Siang Hill – my fave cakes ever!
Mei Hong Yuan at 65-67 Temple Street – this list doesn’t as yet feature our good ole Chinese desserts, and i think they deserve a mention because they are just as wonderful… and nowhere does it better than Mei Hong Yuan!
June 7th, 2010 @ 10:39 pm
Try K Ki at Ann Xiang Hill! I love the Antoinette!
June 8th, 2010 @ 12:49 am
Hi Brad! I’ll be back home in 10ish days now! Can’t wait to eat, eat, eat my way through Summer! I love this list of places you’ve put up! Definitely going to try all of them! x
June 8th, 2010 @ 1:42 pm
estelle: oh ya i heard of classic cakes and their crepes! other than their marble cheesecake, which ones have you tried?
Chelle: HIGH 5! i think we have very common palates! you MUST try Patisserie glace strawberry souffle, it’s the bomb! and yes, tampopo cream puff always make me happier when i am happy! hee have you tried the shortcake at tampopo? i feel it’s even better than the one at canele
ricky: Give canele another chance? they have good macarons too, try the le royale cake
the lacquer spoon: I bet tokyo has even more French and Japanese patisserie, they have a big following there right?
kitsune shoujo: haha kki a bit over-hyped now, i will wait a while. i had the mango ice at Mei Hong Yuan, it’s good stuff : )
meg: Another Kki fan? hahaha ok maybe i will drop by soon
S: YAY! SO FAST? You are finally coming home, lets meet up soon : ))
June 8th, 2010 @ 10:54 pm
Laurent’s and Max Brenner win my vote! Thanks for the recommendations and great pictures!
June 9th, 2010 @ 8:00 am

June 9th, 2010 @ 10:10 pm
the matcha cake right at the top- where’s this from? Also, any best recommendations for matcha cakes?
June 10th, 2010 @ 9:04 am
alison: thank you for your kind words! i love both laurent’s and max brenner too! between the both of them, they have the best chocolate souffle in singapore! but it’s not cheap to pay 20 bucks for a dessert :p
vanillasugar: OH NO! i bet you have some leftover goodies in your fridge, go get them now?
incognita: Hello the matcha cake is from patisserie glace! i love the matcha chiffon cake from tampopo, and the matcha cake from Canele : )
June 11th, 2010 @ 3:43 pm
Hi! the chocolate souffle from Laurent Bernard didn’t really satisfied me.. their rum raisin souffle is..
June 12th, 2010 @ 11:59 am
dian: really? i have not tried it myself, but a lot of people have been raving about it as the best chocolate souffle in singapore
June 15th, 2010 @ 10:06 am

June 22nd, 2010 @ 9:40 pm
amazing. i should know not to come to your blog at night….i am just starved now
September 23rd, 2010 @ 12:15 am
well..
i do love the Marmalade Pantry’s cupcake selection (despite of the rarity of some kind if you go there for later afternoon tea),
but the service was simply Awful!
it takes literally 10 minutes for my bill to arrive and another 5 minutes for them to bring back my bill..
maybe to go, perhaps..
September 23rd, 2010 @ 4:13 pm
how about the Patissier? the passionfruit meringue’s really good!
October 2nd, 2010 @ 11:32 am
karen: hahaha i take that as a compliment : )
adithya: yeah maybe they have a busy day. but i guess the cupcakes are worth the wait, otherwise you can always takeaway at Toast (their bakery at Takashimaya)
allthingssweet: I haven tried their desserts before. But it’s such a shame that they do not have any dine in area
January 3rd, 2011 @ 11:02 pm
for cakes try “one caramel” at bottom of mount sophia near plaza sing… wide selection of cakes and esp their choc praline cake taste nice!
March 12th, 2011 @ 8:23 pm
i’ve never read something about someone who shares the exact same feeling as me when it comes to desserts! great, great, photos by the way!
March 13th, 2011 @ 12:15 am
I loved Cakes & desserts just like you and Breakfast too! I love the cakes at Flor Patisserie and Tampopo Deli.
Cakes at Center Ps @ Tiong Bahru is quite good too.
March 18th, 2011 @ 1:24 am
Hey there… i’d tried 5 out of the 10. they were superb in each of their own special menu. staff was very splendid, friendly and ready to answer. but i was so very disappointed with Le Chocolate at Ann Siang. Hey!!! you didn’t mention it in your blog so I guess you tried it before. Staff was not so friendly, didn’t have any knowledge on the desserts and the dessert was not up to the 5 I tried.
May 3rd, 2011 @ 2:54 pm
Hi! I learned about your blog from my 19year old daughter. I’m quite a newbie in blogging that’s why I enjoy reading great blogs like yours. Eating is one of my passions and I’m a lover of desserts too. Whenever I go abroad, I try out new dining places I have never visited. I’m going to Singapore again by end of August and as early as now, I’m making a shortlist of the places I will be visiting. I might not have the time to try all in your list but can you recommend the top 3 best dessert places? Btw, I beg to disagree about the cupcakes at Marmalade Pantry. I tried their Rose and Limonata but I got disappointed. They were dry. Sonja’s Cupcakes here in Manila are much better. Try it sometime . Thanks.
July 3rd, 2011 @ 3:16 am
Ever tried the chocolate fondant at TWG? I have really high expectations of chocolate deserts and this one exceeds all!
August 29th, 2011 @ 11:17 am
wow, alot of new places since the last time I went to SG (probably about a year ago) .. Just gotta make my way there soon and just eat desserts
Thanks for the list !
April 27th, 2012 @ 6:25 pm
3 Inch Sin has closed down in Cluny Court. Now it is only available at One Millenia.
April 28th, 2012 @ 12:57 am
why ain’t da paolo’s gastronomia on the list? imo, it’s much better than obolo and definitely value for money.
