Sweet post

Over the past few months, ever since I've decided to revive my blog, I diligently snap pictures of the food, desserts and things I do so I can do up a blog post. Okay kidding, I am a Singaporean and I am an Instagram addict so I have been snapping all my pictures to put up posts like these. I put in more effort and start bringing out the Olympus Pen out so I can shot more photos for blog entries. I am going to list down a couple of ice-cream/ dessert places I have visited. Some of these places are familiar to you.

Creamier

I am sure Creamier needs no introduction. It is always always crowded and has becomethe new fav ice-cream spot for the locals. They are famous for their ice-cream with waffles, a double scoop one.








Selfie using my pretty old canon G12 with the flipped screen. I am so tempted to trade in my canon to a DSLR since I am using my sis's Olympus pen mini  as a compact camera now.


We both ordered double scoop of ice-cream with waffles so that it will look pretty for photo. 



Front up was pistachio and Sea salt Guala Malaca. I love the pistachio which has the right milkiness and richness. Some places has overly milky taste which only makes it super gelat.


I ordered banana roasted pecan and richest dark chocolat ferrero! Love love dark chocolate that had this premium taste. I don't like milk chocolate especially white chocolate. I am born greedy because when I was young, there was once I pop lots of milk chocolate down and in the middle of the night and woke up to vomit after. Ever since that incident, I stop eating milk chocolate unless they comes with nuts, chips or something to chew with. 




Wipe out!

Disclaimer: I did not punch A., neither did I make him cry, he was just having really bad sinus.  Haha he was like a reindeer that night.

Windowsill Pies

I love the dessert pies from windowsill pies. The last time we came, we had S'mores the best seller, super sweet but I like it with camarelized almond brittle.

I ordered Banana Almond Brittle and Grasshopper this time round. Sweet banana mousse with salty caramel and crunchy nuts! Love to bite on caramelized nuts! Grasshopper sounds disgusting but not our pies from windowsillpies. Similar to aftereight concept: fourless chocolate cake base topped with a light fresh mint cream.

The Book Cafe

Sometime back we visited Book cafe on a cozy Sunday to kill some time before Mother's Day dinner.This is a place where you can hibernate, to read a book or to catch up on your korean craze. Eversince my visit to Afteryou, I am crazily in love with Shibuya toast and so I went ahead to try all Shibuya toasts when I chanced upon. Not very much impressed by Book Cafe's version, I guess there wasn't enough butter or maybe they are just not well spread across.

Udders

Undeniably one of the favourite dessert spot in the West. They serve really nice waffles with unique ice-cream flavours. Try their durian Mao Shan Wang for some authentic local flavours. My top 3 favourite from udders: Rum & Rasin, strawberry fields, snickers mars honeycomb vanilla. 


They have opened many branches all around Singapore. Visit their website for more details.

Alfero Artisan Gelato

Just a few doors away from Udders along Lor Kilat road has another Italian Alfero Artisan Gelato. Only tried their belgium waffle with a scoop of chocolate ice-cream, very classic choice but it hasn't exactly blown be away. Not so much fan of their waffles, as you can see it wasn't very nicely done or plate.  But perhaps will give it a try for their ice-cream someday. 


Ice Cream & Cookie Co.

Cookie Ice-cream:
I love the after eight flavour and our slightly soggy cookie paired with the ice-cream.






Vanilla bean ice-cream with chocolate chip cookie.


They have expanded their business and make their prodcuts available at various cafes and restaurants around us. VIsit their website to find out on where to buy these sinfully made desserts.
