New to the slew of cafés and restaurants that have been sprouting up all over South Bridge Road is a small artisanal ice gelato café.

Whether it is an ice gelato for a refreshing treat in the middle of the day or an indulgent dessert to end off the night on a sweet note, Dopa Dopa Creamery will likely please you with their selective yet impressive range of ice cream.

Churning out ice cream so incredibly delicious that they were sold out on their first day, here is why you need to pay Dopa Dopa Creamery a visit if you are craving some sweet treats.

They only have 8 flavours on their menu—all of which are curated and made by an Italian chef. The standard flavours (S$3.90/ single scoop) include Apple Ginger Sorbet and Banana while premium flavours (S$4.60/ single scoop) include Home Roasted Pistachio and Green Tea Toasted Rice.

Coffee-lovers can look forward to getting a cuppa to complement the sweetness of their ice-cold desserts!

Rather than having our ice cream in a mainstream cup or cone, we opted to get our scoop of Green Tea Toasted Rice (S$4.60) in a buttery, flaky croissant (S$5.50).

Boasting a thick consistency that gives the gelato a slight chewiness, the Green Tea Toasted Rice flavour is one that any green tea lover must get. Mildly sweet with a hint of bitterness at the end just the way we prefer it to be, we highly recommend to try this flavour.

The Speculoos with Lotus Biscuit (S$4.60/ single scoop) features bits and pieces of crushed caramel biscuits mixed into a creamy and milky base, giving it an extra crunchy texture.

Otherwise, you can opt to get your ice cream in a cone for an additional S$1. Topping off our cone was Hojicha (S$4.60/ single scoop).

You can bet that the distinct smoky, toasty flavour will blow you away upon your first mouthful. Other popular flavours that Dopa Dopa Creamery offers are Hazelnut and Home Roasted Pistachio.

Speculoos Cookie Butter, or Cookie Butter in short, has been famed for its nutty and creamy flavour worldwide. This spread is essentially made with baked cookies, before crushing and mixing them with oil until they become a mouth-watering spread – akin to the texture and colour of peanut butter, but even better. We love cookie butter for its addictive taste and would eat it straight from the jar if it was not so fattening.

Speculoos Cookie Butter spread has been leaving its mark across desserts as one of the ultimate ingredient that can never go wrong – macarons, cakes, waffles, ice cream – you name it, they would probably have dominated it all already.

Join the party as we uncover 7 Speculoos Cookie Butter Desserts For The Cookie Butter Fanatics.

#1 51 FIVEONE DEGREES - SPECULOOS CUPCAKES 

The Speculoos Cupcake (S$3.80) at 51 FiveOne Degrees certainly left an impression. The fluffy and moist cupcake was a delight to savour, with a fabulous Cookie Butter spread encased in its core.

If that is not enough to impress, the cupcake is also topped off with a velvety buttercream and a little piece of Lotus cookie for an elevated texture. If you are a big fan of Speculoos Cookie Butter, you have to try this.
