One classic sweet treat that we can never get enough of—not to mention in Singapore’s unforgiving heat—is ice cream.
There are a plethora of places in Singapore that sell great ice cream whether it is the artisanal kind or the commercial kind, but some places stand out more than others. Here is a list of 23 ice cream shops in Singapore to help you get the very best ice cream when those sugar cravings hit you.
AQUA S
Aqua S—Sydney’s famous soft serve shop—is opening in Singapore. For all the dessert fans out there with an incurable sweet tooth, be prepared to get the sugar rush of your lifetime.
Like their outlet in Sydney, Singapore’s Aqua S will offer ever-changing flavours. Their soft serve flavours will rotate on the 1st and 16th of every month, so you may look forward to something new and exciting every fortnight! Make sure to get their signature sea-salt flavour, inspired by Okinawa’s famous sea-salt ice cream, that’s a permanent item on their menu! Prices start from S$5.70 for a plain cone and an additional S$0.80 for each topping.

Wimbly Lu is a little inaccessible, but it’s definitely worth the long journey in. They sell plenty of different foods, but their forte definitely is in dessert and ice cream. Their must-try items here are their ice cream waffles and it has never failed to taste sinfully good. We don’t know how they always manage to be so consistent in making such crispy yet fluffy waffles.

VENCHI
Venchi sells some of the most luxurious, creamy ice creams around that are incredibly rich and smooth. We like how the gelato is slightly tacky, giving it a more interesting texture. While all their flavours taste amazing, we especially love their Giandujotto, and we highly recommend it to all of you out there who love your chocolate.

Alfero gelato should be on this list. It’s way better than some of the crap places you have here
The Udders address is at Novena Station, not Marymount.
Nearest MRT for Creamier Gillman Barracks Is not Braddell. That’s for the TPY branch:) love that!!
Thanks for this compilation! Just a note, though… Double Scoops is at Blk 226A Ang Mo Kio Ave 1, not Blk 266A. Just went on a wild goose chase looking for it ???? Gave up and went to Creamier at Gillman Barracks instead. It’s good ????????
