Singapore is an amazing country and city full of vibrancy and modernity. But, if you want to get to know the culture more, check out these traditional desserts!
Pandan Cake
Made from the leaves of the Pandan plant, the interior is incredibly light and fluffy, and also has a green tint from the leaves! It’s a staple dessert in Singapore, and Pure Pandan is one of the most famous places to have it. Get there and get yourself a slice of heaven.
Apom Berkuah
Although these look like just some pretty pancakes, apom berkuah is actually a totally different kind of pancake like you’ve never had before. They’re made from fermented rice flour and have a beautiful blue design in the center from a special flour used in the recipe. It’s not as sweet of a dessert but comes with a really nice banana sauce on the side.
Durian Pengat
This dessert is something you will either love or hate. Durian is a really strong fruit that people say tastes amazing or smells like garbage. But, while it’s in season, give it a try in this traditional mousse called durian pengat! It’s made with coconut milk as well, so it masks the flavor slightly.
