25 ice cream parlours to visit in Singapore

























There's this amazing thing about ice cream cafes. It seems to emit an atmosphere of happiness.
It brightens up a crying kid. It brings joy to the loving couple at the far end.
And it brings friends together for a night of laughter.

Having eaten from so many different ice cream cafes, I've thus decided to share with everyone,

Hope this list helps the next time you've an ice cream craving.
