March 21, 2019
Ice-cream cafe Creamier will close its Toa Payoh outlet on June 30, as it is unable to renew its lease. It is the first Creamier Handcrafted Ice Cream and Coffee outlet that opened back in November 2011, and is located at Block 128 Toa Payoh Lorong 1. The brand, which has gained a loyal following over the years, is known for its delicious handcrafted ice-cream flavours and house-made waffles.

In a Facebook post on March 19, Creamier thanked its landlady and staff as well as neighbours in the Toa Payoh West Market & Food Centre. The post adds: “What we will definitely miss the most is the community – from the kids running around, the friendly faces of our neighbours, and our regulars whose favourite ice-cream flavours we know by heart.” As a “farewell gift”, it also teased a “special flavour” that will be released to commemorate the store.
For ice-cream fans, this is sad news indeed. But not to worry, you can still find Creamier at two of their other outlets: Gillman Baracks and Tiong Bahru. And if you need more artisanal ice-cream fixes of unique flavours, we’ve compiled some below which you might not have heard of or tried yet – here’s the inside scoop in the gallery below!
Where Else To Go For Unique Ice-Cream Flavours, Now That Creamier Toa Payoh Is Closing Down
1. Fat Cat Ice Cream Bar

Signature flavours include unique treats like butter beer, white peach sangria and more. To be had with their gourmet charcoal waffles, it goes without saying.
Fat Cat Ice Cream Bar is at #01-25 Block 416 Bedok North Ave 2. Visit fatcat.sg
2. KOOKS Creamery

The ice cream is great but better had with the molten lava cookies that they sit atop.
Cut into soft cookie to release the decadently oozing warm liquid centre, a juxtaposition against the scoops of goodness, for a vivid harmony of hot and cold with each moutful.
The Shibuya-style thick toast might not look like much to the uninitiated, but it takes only a bite to be convinced of this sinfully buttery, gratifyingly fragrant wonder.
Ice cream flavours go from the usual suspects to unique flavours like melon and parma ham, white truffle, coconut kaya swirl and more.
Dessert Project is at 22 Havelock Road.

Even on a weeknight, patrons spill out to the community tables outside ths HDB blocks and here’s why.
The waffles here are hard to top – fragrant thick squares that are crisp on the outside and fluffy on the inside – but the ice cream here does just that. Must tries: sea salt gula melaka, as well as earl grey lavender.
Creamier at #01-835, Block 128 Toa Payoh Lorong will close after June 30. You can still find Creamier at Gillman Baracks, 5a Lock Road and at Tiong Bahru, #01-18, 78 Yong Siak St. Visit creamier.com.sg
5. Sunday Folks

If you just did a double take at the resemblence, that’s because Sunday Folks is Creamier’s younger sister, served instead with perfectly shaped swirls of soft serve and drizzled with toppings.
Sunday Folks is at #01-52 Chip Bee Gardens, 44 Jalan Merah Saga. Visit sundayfolks.com
6. Holy Cow Creamery

We’re sold: Ice-cream goes with any dessert, cookies included.
Here, classic flavours are reinvented and you’ll find the likes of Mr. Potato Head, chocolate coated potato chips with salted caramel, Nutella cheesecake and more.
Westsiders rejoice! Ran by a team of ice cream and pastry chefs, you’re getting the best of both worlds here. The fruit compote waffle comes with a scoop of Madagascan vanilla ice cream perched atop a fragrant charcoal waffle, adorned with slice fruits and chocolate sauce.
Archipelago Creamery is at #01-09 Nanyang Community Club, 60 Jurong West Street 91.
