This marvellous handmade dessert – or what is better known now as Ice Cream Rolls – from Thailand has been the talk of the town of late, and we are here to check out the hype.

Ice Cream Rolls are essentially made from pouring milk on an iced grill, before continuously smashing and chopping them skillfully while mixing in various toppings, be it fruits, chocolates or even marshmallows. The slightly hardened ice cream is thereafter rolled into thin pieces and drizzled with dessert sauces – so wickedly sinful, which makes us love them more.

If you have been salivating at videos of this sweet creation on your social media feeds, you should be treating yourself to a helping already. Many ice cream parlours in Singapore have picked up on this trend, bringing these Ice Cream Rolls closer to our doorsteps and our hearts.

That being said, check out these 5 Places In Singapore To Get Ice Cream Rolls!

#1 21 CUBE ARTISAN ICE CREAM

21 Cube Artisan Ice Cream is conveniently located at the premises of SCAPE. Thank God we have something chilled to pamper ourselves with after all that shopping in town.

Their Ice Cream rolls are sold at S$5.90 for 2 mixers and S$4.90 for 1 mixer – with your choice of base flavours and toppings. The chewy, melt-in-your-mouth ice cream rolls definitely did justice to the latest dessert obsession, and we want more.

#2 COYORO

Good news for all the North-siders! Situated at the basement of the recently revamped Sunplaza, cOyOrO is the first stall that sells yogurt ice cream rolls. Yes, you heard us right! For those who prefer a lighter option, opt for this yogurt rendition instead.

Although the Cocoyoro (S$7.90) might seem a little pricey, it is prepared with fresh coconut, dried cranberries and even topped with a yoghurt soft-serve. With their intrinsically soft consistencies, Yogurt Ice Cream Rolls are more prone to melting, but it does not bother us because we finished ours within minutes (glutton like that).

#3 GO FROST

Go Frost is an ice cream pushcart in the vicinity of Tampines Community Club. Though it might not be the most accessible, we will travel for ice cream.

Sink your teeth into the soft and decadent Ice Cream Roll concoctions. Priced reasonably at S$4.20 a cup, some flavours to try include the Banella (Banana & Nutella), Salted Caramel and even Bundung for a local twist. Are you tempted already?

#4 HAPPY ROLLIES

Happy Rollies first started out as a stall at the popular Geylang Serai but is now constantly rollin’ to various night markets in Singapore – with their locations regularly updated on their Facebook page so you will always be kept posted of their whereabouts!

Being a pioneer of the Ice Cream Roll trend in Singapore, we are pretty convinced they are the best. At S$5 per cup, expect to be pampered by premium ice cream flavours and toppings such as Kinder Bueno, caramel biscuits and other fruity picks to keep you sated.

Currently at:
1. Toa Payoh: 4th September 2015 –  21st September 2015
2. Next to Jurong East MRT Station

#5 THE FAMOUS ICE CREAM ROLLS SHOP

Granted, it requires a certain amount of courage to proclaim oneself as The Famous Ice Cream Rolls Shop and that further sparked our curiosity to check them out. This newest addition to Thomson V Two is a cosy Halal establishment selling mainly Ice Cream Rolls with a humble cafe seating.

At S$3.90 a cup, you can select from 6 yummy flavours and it comes with 2 toppings. For additional toppings, you can get it at S$0.50 each. So is it really so good that they deserve their name? We say it is definitely worth a try!

Essentially a dessert cafe and ice cream parlour, Twenty Grammes has been constant in serving up quality ice cream, great waffles and unique flavours. Located along North Bridge Road, where an influx of new cafes have seen their way to the neighbourhood, Twenty Grammes has since upped the ante and new creations have been added to the menu to introduce more excitement for patrons.

Walking into this inviting and brightly-coloured cafe with perfect natural light streaming in, you will feel an immediate sense of comfort while being hit with the rich aroma of freshly prepared waffles.

It is also interesting to see how Twenty Grammes has curated some of Singapore’s recent dessert trends and attempted their own renditions. Here are some of the things that we love at Twenty Grammes; think savoury waffle with sea salt caramel ice cream, charcoal waffle with homemade salted egg yolk sauce, yogurt parfaits and more.

From now till 31 October 2015, flash this post at Twenty Grammes (Blk 529 Ang Mo Kio Ave 10 or 753 North Bridge Road) and get 50% OFF the second waffle purchased (of same value or lower) from Mondays to Fridays only.

UNIQUE FLAVOURED LATTES

You might have noticed a stream of “flavoured” lattes on your social media timelines. Although you might pass it off as a marketing scam, the subtle and refreshing flavours offered by Twenty Grammes impressed us. Both the Blackberry and Macadamia were interesting alternatives for our caffeine crave.

The former is a subtle fruity punch to the rich coffee, while the latter is an aromatic and nutty delight. Twenty Grammes also offer other flavoured lattes, such as Caramel, Hazelnut and Vanilla at S$5.50 each.

WHOLESOME SALADS

For a light but satisfying meal, indulge in one of their five salad choices. The King Smoked Duck Salad (S$9.50) came with smoked duck slices that were extremely flavourful and tender, much to our glee. The salad of green and red lettuce was tossed with tomatoes and walnuts for an added crunch.

The House Special Salad (S$11.90) includes a generous amount of smoked salmon atop green and cold sesame pasta, and is too finished with some tomatoes and walnuts.

HEARTY CHICKEN PIE

The 753 Pie (S$11.50) is a chicken and mushroom pie that is served with a side of truffle chips and garden salad. We totally loved the aroma of truffle, and it perfumed the chips evenly that we couldn’t stop eating. Of course, sitting inside the flaky crust of the pie are big and tender chunks of chicken.

DOUBLE T WAFFLE – WAFFLE STUFFED WITH TURKEY HAM

We were apprehensive initially, knowing that the turkey ham was weaved into the waffle batter and it would be a savoury instead of the usual familiar dessert waffle. But this dish took all of us by surprise – a pleasant one, of course. It changed our perception of savoury waffle altogether. With the use of truffle oil, the waffle’s enchanting aroma wafted into our hearts. The waffle itself was extremely crisp and because turkey ham was added inside, the batter tasted more flavourful.

We love the perfect marriage of sweet and salty in their sea salt caramel ice cream, which was dolloped on top of this mouth-watering savoury waffle.

SOFT-SERVE FROYO WAFFLES

By aesthetics sense, this would be the best-looking waffle. Perched on top of their fluffy waffles is a generous portion of their signature soft-serve frozen yogurt. With plenty of fruits sitting around this waffle (S$12.50), this is the choice for those who choose to skip the richness of ice cream and want to stick to something healthier.

CHARCOAL WAFFLE WITH HOMEMADE SALTED EGG SAUCE

Before you have your doubts about this dish, the Charcoal Waffle (S$8.50) at Twenty Grammes was definitely on point. The crisp outer layer, coupled with the addition of an ultra-rich salted egg yolk sauce, is such a divine combination.

The sauce is served in a huge and generous pot and we could not have been more delighted and satisfied. It is an additional S$3.50 for one scoop of ice cream on top and S$6.50 for two. You can pick from their wide range of ice cream flavours, but we recommend the Triple C which is made of chocolate, caramel and chocolate chunks.

ROSE LYCHEE CAKE

We found a slice of heaven with Twenty Grammes’ Rose Lychee Cake. It is both light and extremely packed with refreshing lychee and rose flavours. The cake itself remains moist despite it being not overly dense, and the taste is light on the palate.

ICE MELBOURNE COFFEE

Twenty Grammes’ Iced Melbourne Coffee (S$7.90) is a genius idea and a great way to enhance a typical iced latte. This cup of iced latte is topped with a scoop of their popular sea salt caramel ice cream for a more concentrated flavour. Honestly, sea salt caramel ice cream in coffee is simply brilliant. How come no one thought of it?!

TG YOGURT PARFAIT

You can pick either TG Froyo (S$4.50, one topping) or TG Yogurt Parfait (S$6.90, four toppings). And yes, it is going to sound familiar. Pick from an extensive range of ingredients such as tortilla chips, honey mustard soy crisps, granola, peaches, blueberries and more. Then, complete with a drizzle of any one of their sauces (that is considered one topping’s worth). On a lighter note, the toppings option is mind-boggling; you have been warned.

The range of sauces include chocolate hazelnut sauce and caramelised cookies sauce. The latter is already a popular favourite here. You can also choose from a more premium range of toppings (S$1.90 each). Some of these premium toppings are coconut gula melaka granola and manuka honey cashew nuts. The froyo itself is light, and a great way to combat the heat.

Twenty Grammes is currently in the midst of renovating its second outlet and it will be opening in Ang Mo Kio by next month – another cafe in the North of Singapore you can look forward to!

HANDS UP, LLAOLLAO FANS!

Who else is a fan of the very famous Spanish froyo (frozen yogurt)? If you haven’t even heard, which is close to impossible, Llaollao is a must-eat dessert in Singapore and the very photogenic froyo has been getting so much attention from everyone since it set foot on our shores. What is essentially just frozen yogurt is so much more with Llaollao, and they have changed the way we eat froyo forever.

With the array of toppings and sauces, Llaollao has revolutionised froyo, and they are no less pretty than ice cream sundaes. The good news is we no longer have to stand in queue for thirty minutes before we get our froyo fix, especially with the newest Suntec City shop – Llaollao’s biggest outlet in the world – that boasts a huge space with significantly shorter queues.

From now till 31 October 2015, flash this post at Llaollao’s Suntec City outlet and get 50% off the second item purchased (at same value or lower). Imagine buying one Sanum and getting the second Sanum at half the price!

SANUM

Where do we even begin? Sanum? That’s everyone’s favourite, right?

Alright, Sanum it shall be. You might have seen a thousand photos of this iconic parfait on your social media feeds already, but that does not make it any less attractive. Sanum is Llaollao’s signature – at S$6.95 per cup, it is really a froyo parfait that you can customise to your own preferences with three types of fruits, two crunches and one sauce. The possibilities are endless for Llaollao always stocks up their counters with so many types of toppings.

FIVE FAVOURITE SANUM COMBINATIONS

Many times, we see customers stressing up over the counter, not knowing what to order. Perhaps this is where we can help? We have five Sanum combinations that we enjoy, and you may want to use the mix-and-matching of toppings as inspirations on your next order!

First up, we have Caramelised Cookies everything. This is our default Sanum, and we can never get enough of this combination!

Suggested toppings: caramelised cookies x2, strawberries x2, banana, Cookie sauce.

Our next favourite is the Raffallao sauce. We believe this is many’s favourite too. It is essentially white chocolate sauce with coconut bits, so you can imagine how awesome that is.

Suggested toppings: chocolate peanuts and caramalised cookies, pineapple, mango, watermelon, Raffallao sauce.

For a berry-dominated combination, do the Berry Lovers way. Berries everything, that is.
Suggested toppings: Chips Ahoy and muesli with chocolate, strawberries, blueberries, grapes, Wild Strawberries sauce.

Can’t decide if you prefer hazelnut or chocolate? Then do both. It will be a colourful treat with the toppings.

Suggested toppings: Smarties, dehydrated cranberries, melon, strawberries, banana, Nocilla sauce.

All Dark, if you like to go heavy on the chocolate. All dark, all for decadence, yes?

Suggested toppings: Oreo, crunch, mango, banana, strawberries, Black Chocolate sauce.

Ask any Llaollao fan and they will agree the fun comes from watching your parfait being built, one topping at a time. There is something therapeutic about seeing how your yogurt twirl around in the cup, and a pretty Sanum deserves a spot on our Instagram. But of course, we suggest you have fun and go all out with your creativity. The fruits are always fresh, the crunch variety is aplenty, and there many sauces are sure to excite.

THREE SIZES – SMALL, MEDIUM, SANUM

On to the smaller sizes if you do not prefer froyo overdose, though we think that is a good problem to have. For a small midday perk-me-up, the Small (S$4.90) is a simple serving with one topping of your choice. Whatever you like – crunch, fruit or sauce, take your pick. We like it with a simple Mango sauce. You?

Want something bigger than Small but not as big as Sanum? If you can relate to this “dilemma”, then Medium (S$5.90) is your answer. You have more options here, with three toppings of your choice. Why, this is splendid because you can pick a sauce, a crunch and a fruit!

GREAT SMOOTHIES WITH FROYO

Llaollao is also home to great smoothies. What is otherwise under the radar, because everyone’s attention is always on Sanum, is their series of smoothies with froyo. As cliche as it may sound, we would like to think of this as a perfect summer drink.

Split (S$6.90) is our favourite combination! The sweetness of the cookie sauce cuts through the tartness of the froyo, and the fresh banana slices make a great complement. Something refreshing, something unusual, and no less fun; we will totally return to Llaollao for this.

LLAOLLAO OPENS ITS BIGGEST OUTLET IN THE WORLD AT SUNTEC CITY

In Llaollao’s earlier days in Singapore, we saw crazy queues are every outlet; some go up to an hour! We were one of those curious ones who stood in queue, who waited patiently to discover all the wonders Llao Llao can do for our souls. Well, we fell in love, of course. But we were not prepared to wait another thirty minutes for a cup of Sanum.

Luckily, our prayers were heard, and there are now many more outlets in Singapore. The newest one at Suntec City (near to H&M and Din Tai Fung) is the largest one yet.

Being the most spacious unit, Llaollao at Suntec City is our go-to outlet for its strategic centralised location; anywhere we are, when we crave for some froyo goodness, Llaollao Suntec City it shall be.

The toppings selection is a lot fuller, and the queue is significantly shorter. Yay to saying goodbye to long waiting time! And the great news we bear with this post is, in celebration of Suntec City’s opening, OUR READERS ENJOY 50% OFF THE SECOND ITEM PURCHASED AT LLAOLLAO!

LADYIRONCHEF’S READERS GET 50% OFF THE SECOND ITEM PURCHASED AT LLAOLLAO’S SUNTEC CITY BRANCH

From now till 31 October 2015, Ladyironchef’s readers can get 50% off the second item purchased (at same value or lower). This is exclusive to Suntec City’s outlet, and all you have to do is to flash this post when you are ordering your Sanum.

We cannot think of a better way for you to visit the biggest outlet. Of course, if it is going to be your first time at Llaollao, make it a great one with Suntec City’s Llaollao!

If you are among those who never understand the appeal of forking out a couple of dollars for a cup of frozen yogurt (FroYo or Frogurt) — hey we belong to the same kind, I totally understand how you feel — I was once the same, until recently.

I know that there are people who have been puzzled by my recent tweets about living a healthier lifestyle, and eating yogurt daily. Addiction is an understatement when I have been testing out all the Meiji yogurt, F & N Alive yogurt and Marigold Yogurt. If you must know the reason, everything started with this question two weeks ago:

“Why don’t you eat Yogurt? It helps in digestion and it’s good for your skin complexion too!”

I am not sure how true this claim is, but I decided there’s no harm giving it a shot. In recent months, we have seen many new Yogurt places in Singapore, and this can only be good news for all the Fro-Yo fans.

Till date, I have only tried BerryLite once, and sadly that was it. What? You mean you have never tried Red Mango, or Yami Yogurt or Yoguru or.. or even Frolick?!? I know, I know.

Now, I need to make up for lost time and look for the best yogurt in Singapore. I have come up with a list of all the yogurt places in Singapore — please tell me which yogurt shop is your favorite, and why I MUST have it.

If you asked me a couple of months ago will I ever choose yogurt over ice cream – the answer is definitely no. But hey, people do change, so I reckon I’d look here for new yogurt places rather than my list of Ice Cream Places in Singapore.
