Best Desserts in Singapore

Durian aficionados, leg on over to Potong Pasir MRT to have the king of fruits many ways. From ice cream to choux puffs and cakes, there's something for everyone. The light and smooth Durian Mousse Cake ($8.50 per slice) is a no-brainer — think fresh durian flesh atop spongy vanilla base that's studded with lightly salted, crunchy and Gula Melaka. For something easy on the go, the creamy Mao Shan Wang Puff ($3) is an excellent option to still get your durian fix. If not, get the Mao Shan Wang Ice Cream ($9 per cup) for hot day durian indulgences!

This ice cream parlour has opened its doors along Sunset Way in Clementi! Find unique flavours and premium roasts for an afternoon of ice-cold gelatos and chill conversations. Other than their crowd favourite flavours such as Purple Yam and Pistachio, Burppler Xing Wei Chua enjoyed the Strawberry Basil Sorbet which "does come with evident tartness from the berries, yet with a distinct note of zippiness from the basil that strikes a good balance — very refreshing to have especially after a heavy meal". Psst, don't miss out on their fluffy waffles ($6) to go along with your gelatos!
