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, 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 – a terrific tiny cake shop on Rodyk Street, serves a selection of gluten free cakes. It is a good place to stop by to grab a coffee and a slice of cake when in the Robertson Quay vicinity.
7 Rodyk Street #01-30
The Watermark @ Robertson Quay
Tel: +65 6238 1086
Baker & Cook
Baker & Cook is a wonderful hangout place for folks staying in the west of Singapore. Besides having a wide range of bread, the artisanal bakery also offers plenty of sweets and pastries.

Tel: +65 6469 8834
Daily: 7am – 8pm
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.

#B1-016 Suntec City Mall
Tel: +65 6338 4656

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 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
Carpenter and Cook
Carpenter and Cook is a vintage cafe, though I prefer to think of it as a pretty dessert place. Definitely one of my favourite new cafes in town. Try the passionfruit tart and lemon drizzle cake when you are there.
19 Lorong Kilat #01-06
Tel: +65 6463 3648
Everyone who has been to Dean & Deluca, loves their bread selection. They are known to curate the best bread and pastries, and the new store in Singapore is no exception. They are getting some of their bread from popular bakeries like Maison Kyser, Bakers & Co, and Bread Project; and their in-house bakers are also coming up with many new recipes.
181 Orchard Road
#04-23/24 Orchard Central Singapore
Tel: +65 6509 7708
Mon to Sun: 11am – 10pm
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 a must-try!
2 Duxton Hill #01-01 Singapore
Tel: +65 6223 8628
If you are a dessert lover like me, you must check out Grin Affair, a new cake shop – nestled in the quiet Everton Park estate (where you can also find Nylon Coffee Roasters) – which serves cakes in glass jars.
There are twelve different flavours to choose from: strawberry custard, mango, kiwi cheesecake, hazelnut, dark chocolate, lychee passionfruit with sea salt pistachio, cookies & cream, matcha and azuki bean, honey lavender and blueberry, durian, chestnut, and banana coffee. Each cake is priced at either $4.80 or $5.50 per jar.

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.

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
Loola’s by Awfully Chocolate
Loola’s by Awfully Chocolate at Esplanade is another place that is worth checking out.
On the dessert menu, you can find sweet temptations like chocolate mille crepe, hazel crumble, brownie, cupcake, chocolate tart, and churros. While the desserts are not exactly cheap – most of them are priced between $12-15 – I appreciate that they are well-made, and given that Loola’s has a very nice ambience, it is a price that I am willing to pay.
8 Raffles Avenue
#02-14 Esplanade Mall
Tel: +65 6336 9563
What do I need to say about Marmalade Pantry? It is 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 one of the best chocolate lava cakes in Singapore. The desserts there are relatively more expensive, but the satisfaction that you get in return is worth the price.

#01-06/08 Esplanade Mall
Tel: +65 6235 9556
It is easy to miss MU Parlour at Holland Village if you are not paying special attention to the shops on the second level. It’s the kind of place that is introduced through friends’ recommendations. And this is exactly how we came to know about it.
MU Parlour has a very pretty and cosy space. It is the perfect place to hang out, read a book, and watch the world go by. For those of you who frequent Holland Village, you should definitely drop by MU Parlour for desserts and coffee.

Paul Bakery has opened in Singapore with much fanfare, and it’s not difficult to understand why the French boulangerie/patisserie is packed with customers everyday.
For those who have been to Europe, Paul Boulangerie is the place for them to relive those wonderful memories of having a warm croissant and a cup of coffee during winter. For others who have heard much about Paul from their friends, the new restaurant in Singapore gives them the chance to try something before they go Europe.

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.

Tiong Bahru Bakery is opened in collaboration with celebrity baker, Gontran Cherrier. It started with much fanfare in the now-hip Tiong Bahru neighbourhood (Eng Hoon Street), and added a second shop at Raffles City shortly after.
They offer a huge range of bread, pastries and desserts on the menu. I am sure you will be able to find something that you like.

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
My friends have been raving about the cheesecakes from The Cheesecake Cafe at East Coast, so I had to drop by there to see what was the fuss about. Their cheesecakes are definitely among the better ones that I’ve had before. Besides the desserts, the cafe is also a very nice place to chill out with a group of friends, and it is certainly a bonus that they open late night till 12.30am.

Wimbly Lu is our favourite to-go place for desserts, we go there all the time and so far, we have tried almost all the items on the menu. We love the cosy and intimate atmosphere, and the fact that all the desserts are so reasonably-priced. While some of the desserts did not impress, the waffle and root beer cake are reasons enough for us to return time and again.

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

Classic cakes at sunset way – marble cheesecake
daily scope also at sunset way! ( ice creams)
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.
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!
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 
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!
Try K Ki at Ann Xiang Hill! I love the Antoinette!
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
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 : ))
Laurent’s and Max Brenner win my vote! Thanks for the recommendations and great pictures!
amazing. i should know not to come to your blog at night….i am just starved now
the matcha cake right at the top- where’s this from? Also, any best recommendations for matcha cakes?
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 : )
Hi! the chocolate souffle from Laurent Bernard didn’t really satisfied me.. their rum raisin souffle is..
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
ahhh, thanks for the tips and list..really usefull`
taufulou: no problem, glad to be able to help : )
I tried Glace as you commented…Wow,Super…must go back.Not enuf!
Thank you for the recommendations.
cookiemonsta: glad you love it! yes i already been there many times, and i will order the strawberry souffle each time without fail : )
amazing. i should know not to come to your blog at night….i am just starved now
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..
how about the Patissier? the passionfruit meringue’s really good!
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
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!
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!
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.
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.
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.
Ever tried the chocolate fondant at TWG? I have really high expectations of chocolate deserts and this one exceeds all!
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 !
3 Inch Sin has closed down in Cluny Court. Now it is only available at One Millenia.
why ain’t da paolo’s gastronomia on the list? imo, it’s much better than obolo and definitely value for money.
I found a great online ‘dessert’ place and they’re cakes are cheap and so quintessentially english, it brought back memories of my trip to the UK. Their scones especially are fantastic! I bought a box of about 15 which included cream and jam for only $25. Their website is http://www.bizcocho.weebly.com. You should check it out! Definitely worth a try
Tampopo deli shop is not at b1 anymore. In fact they open another new store selling their famous cream puffs and other cakes at 117 River Valley Road Liang Court#01-41/42 Singapore 179030 Dulcet & Studio
Go check it out.
The Cheesecake Cafe indeed have the best cheesecake in Singapore. Their cafe have victorian-style decoration adorning the walls. I’m not a big fan of cheesecake, but I can’t resist on their cheesecakes. I love their Peach Jelly cheesecake. Not so cheesy
Do take note for dine-in, minimum of one order per pax and no photography of premises.
Hello,
I just discovered Wimbly Lu this morning. They have delicious waffles that I dipped in my mayan hot chocolate
Swirl cupcakes are amazing! Try the peanut butter ones…they are at robertson quay….sort of.
A new dessert that popped up recently at Wisma Lv 2 called ‘Paris Baguette’ has nice cakes and pastries too! Love how light their cake’s cream are! Definitely needs to be up on this list!
A new dessert place*
Anyway thumbs up for this list! Im gonna try most of them soon!
glad to be able to recognise all of the dessert places on this post except for the one in Holland V
good list!
Hi Brad, you should check out Artesans Sweets (32 Holland Grove Road,Henry Park Apartments). I personally feel that they make the best Macaroons in SG with standard near to Lauduree! (:
hey thank you for your recommendation. I have been finding places to eat dessert and I got it now. I also would like to recommend a place which is located in raffle city B1 called ‘fruit paradise’, the cake they sell range of 7-15 dollars and all of the flavour tarts are really yummy. especial the crust is crunchy yet it wil melt fantastically in your mouth. the cake is also relatively tall and the quality is up for standard. it is worth to try the tiramisu tart and fruit tarts.
