Island Creamery (Serene Centre)

Island Creamery a ice cream parlour specialises in producing freshly made premium ice creams with local flavours. Premium ingredients are used with no artificial flavours, colourings, preservatives, eggs or gelatine. 
I visited Island Creamery at Serene Centre, located at the junction of Bukit Timah Road and Farrer Road. Island Creamery and Tom’s Palette seems to have similar branding. But the key differentiator is that Island Creamery is known for its local flavour ice cream such as Teh Tarik, Pulut Hitam, Pineapple Tart, Holicks and Bandung. The lastest addition they have is Bak Kwa ice cream!

Menu
Another differentiator is that besides Ice Creams, there are Ice Cream Cakes, Baked Alaska and Mudpies.
Fridge full of Ice Cream Cakes, Mudpies and tubs of Ice Cream for take away
Double Scoop Ice Cream [Pulut Hitam (left) & Nutella (right)] $4.50
We ordered the Double Scoop Ice Cream with the 2 flavours Pulut Hitam and Nutella. Pulut Hitam is also know as Black Glutinous Rice. The Pulut Hitam ice cream taste just like the real thing! Whoever though of making this dessert into an ice cream is a genius! The Nutella was good too. I wish that there was more chunks of Nutella in it.
Mud Pie $4.80
Top to bottom layer of ice cream: ReversO, Cookies'n Cream and Burnt Caramel)
The Mud Pie is highly recommended by my sister. The top layer and bottom layer is covered in Oreo crumbs. In the middle, there are 3 layers of ice cream namely; (top to bottom) ReversO, Cookies'n Cream and Burnt Caramel. The Mud Pie was superb! I like their crunchy Oreo crumbs. And it certainty helps that their ice cream is fabulous too! Another must try item!

We decided to buy a tub of ice cream back home, had a hard time deciding what to buy.
Used to pack the ice cream
Tub of Nutella Ice Cream $9.00
Tub of Nutella Ice Cream $9.00
After hesitating for a long time, we decided to buy a tub of Nutella. We were torn between buying Pulut Hitam or Nutella. This time round, I felt that the Nutella taste slightly different from the one I had at Serene Centre. It was more diluted with much even lesser chunks of Nutella. Do note that the ice cream has to be consumed within 3 days as no preservatives were added.

I wish that I live near Island Creamery. However, I am putting up in the north and Serene Centre is located too far away. If not for that, I would frequent this ice cream parlour for its Pulut Hitam Ice Cream! If you are in the area, try the ice cream there!

  2. MMMM i agree that their mud pie rocks. Had it almost 4 years ago and never looked back since!

    I find their ice cream tubs really worth it. Fav takeaways include their mango sorbet. I love how the mango flavour tastes just like the sweet thai mangoes that I occasionally have at home. Something i'll never get from store bought ice cream :D
