The term Singaporean cuisine refers to a great variety of dishes popular in Singapore and brought to the country by descendants of immigrants from many parts of the world. This cuisine has been shaped by the influence of various nations, including Chinese, Malay, Indonesian, Indian, Peranakan and European, especially English and Portuguese, cuisines. Meanwhile, the national dishes of different ethnic groups have been enriched with ingredients from neighboring culinary traditions over centuries of communion. That’s why Singapore is considered the gastronomic capital of Asia, and the authorities are doing their best to make Singapore’s cuisine serve as a full-fledged tourist attraction and lure for travelers, popularizing food with gastronomic festivals and supporting the opening of a variety of food outlets. Desserts are especially exciting and unusual. Dessert is a delicacy that is served after lunch or dinner. Its main purpose is to make a meal enjoyable. Therefore, it is served after the main meal.

If we talk about popular desserts in Singapore, Ice Kachang takes first place. This ice block is turned into shavings on a special grinding machine. The snow is piled high in a bowl and decorated with various ingredients: red beans, pieces of multicolored jelly, syrups, canned fruit, and sweet corn. It’s also hard not to mention Douhua, a Chinese dessert made with soft tofu and sugar syrup. This dessert is eaten hot or cold, and sometimes glutinous rice balls, herbal jelly, or soy milk are added. More recently, a popular and more jelly-like version of Tau Huay has emerged that can include almost any flavor, such as mango, melon, or sesame. Some people eat this dessert for breakfast by adding soy sauce and eggs.

Desserts in Singapore are plentiful, and it has a rich history of the origins. You can find them in great numbers both on the streets and in the city’s best buffets.
