Food is such a trademark of Singapore. We have food everywhere and a lot of our dishes are incredibly famous and beloved.
However, as times change, food also has evolved to continue to be relevant and exciting for the new generation.
This has sparked a challenge of sorts among cafes and restaurants to create some of the most beautiful and creative food to draw in the young crowd who are into social media and photogenic food.
So here are 10 awesome cafes with incredibly Instagrammable desserts for you to try out.
Fat Cat Ice Cream Bar

Fat Cat is hidden all the way in Bedok but it is definitely one to make a trip out for.
The cafe is famous for its very instagrammable and unique Charcoal Waffles with Salted Egg Yolk Sauce.
The crispy black waffle is topped with a scoop of ice cream and served with salted egg sauce which you can pour over the waffles. While it sounds like an odd combination, the sauce and ice cream really go well with the waffle and make for a great photo and a satisfying treat.
The cafe also serves up interesting (and totally Instagrammable) creations such as Mojito Cocktail Spheres and their Deconstructed Strawberry Cheesecake.
Creamery Boutique Ice Cream

Lava cookies are one of the latest fads to hit Singapore and Creamery Boutique Ice Cream is one of the best places to get your gooey fix.
Creamery Boutique serves up freshly baked cookies with a flowy lava centre that flows out when a scoop of ice cream is placed on top of it.
You can go for flavours such as the Monster Matcha, which has a matcha lava filling, the Red Devil, which is a red velvet cookie with a cream cheese filling, the Choc-A-Lot, which has a chocolate filling and more!
Boufé Cafe

Boufé Cafe is another cafe that is fairly out of the way and hidden.
That said, if you do choose to explore, you’ll be rewarded with a gorgeous and cosy cafe that serves delicious and Instagram-worthy dishes.
One of the cafe’s most popular desserts is their Unicorn Cake which is made up of a coconut mousse with mango and a vanilla sponge cake. The dessert is shaped to look like a unicorn complete with edible ears, eyes and a horn.
If unicorns aren’t your thing, the cafe also serves up desserts with a mirror-like glaze spread over it.
The Milky Way or The Rock will give you absolute perfection and beauty on a plate.
The best part is that the cafe puts a little Instagram icon next to their most pretty dishes and drinks so that you know exactly what to order if you’re there just for the ‘gram.
Kindred Folk

Kindred Folk is a student-friendly cafe with great food and unique Asian-inspired ice cream flavours that will have you raving on Instagram.
The cafe serves up ice cream flavours such as Roasted Rice Milk Tea, Watermelon-Calamansi Sorbet, Cereal Milk, Sea Salt Gula Coconut and even Wasabi!
You can opt to have your ice cream served on charcoal waffles to give your pictures a little extra something.
The waffles taste smoky and crispy too which is a bonus.
If you’re worried about making the right ice cream choice, you can always sample the ice cream first.

Kaw Kaw SG is a cafe which serves up delicious halal food and desserts.
For a really unique treat, order their brick toasts. This is basically a huge version of toast topped with ice cream and drizzled with a sauce of your choice.
With some natural light, you could really make this dish stand out on your Instagram feed.

Montana Singapore is a cafe in POMO which serves up some of the prettiest and most unique waffles and cakes.
One of their latest additions to their menu is the Montana Mao Shan Wang Galaxy Waffle. This is a coconut waffle served with durian ice cream on top.
The best part though is that it is served with gula melaka marshmallows which, when combined with the black waffle, make the dish look like the night sky.
The cafe also has ultra-pretty ice creams with syringes of sauce in them and freakcakes which are basically beautiful and delicious cakes with very pretty toppings.

KARA Cafe & Dessert Bar is a cafe located along Bukit Timah Road. It was started by Sogurt, the popular frozen yoghurt brand.
In this cafe, you’ll find gorgeous mochi waffles and freshly baked skillet desserts such as warm cookies and pancakes.
The desserts are served with a swirl of ice cream or frozen yoghurt on top which makes for the perfect Instagram shot!
Lickety

Lickety is an ice cream parlour which basically embodies the definition of ‘hole in the wall’. It’s located along the alleys of Bussorah Street and if you didn't know it was there, you would probably miss it.
However, if you do manage to find it, you’ll find a gorgeous pastel-coloured storefront which is perfect for cute Instagram shots.
When you walk inside, you will find equally beautiful and delicious ice cream and egglet waffles. Order a scoop of their unique ice cream in an egglet waffle and sprinkle a couple of toppings on it for that perfect Instagram shot.
Mission Juice

If you’re on a diet or watching your calories but still enjoy a good photogenic dessert, Mission Juice is the place for you.
Mission Juice is mainly a juice bar but it also serves up pretty epic frozen yoghurt. Their yoghurt is extremely healthy and pretty so you don’t have to worry about the calories as you take that awesome photo.
PS Café

PS Café deserves a feature in our dessert place for one reason-their sticky date pudding. In all honesty, their desserts deserve an article of their own, but let’s start off by talking about their homemade cakes! PS Café’s innovative dessert menu is worth every bite! The sticky date pudding is light and fluffy, but when topped with ice-cream and a sticky-toffee sauce, it combines to create a flavour like none other! Another lovely dessert is the flourless orange cake, which is topped with a delicious butterscotch sauce, that blends brilliantly with the citrus flavour of the cake. Not too overpowering and fulfils every sugar craving!
