7 Gluten-Free Dessert Places In Singapore With Sweet Treats For Those Sensitive To Gluten


Gluten-free dessert places for those with a sweet tooth


Gluten is a protein found in certain grains including wheat. It’s hard to find tasty gluten-free dessert places in Singapore, but fortunately for those with gluten sensitivities and an achingly sweet tooth, there are plenty of cafes, ice-cream shops and bakeries that offer gluten-free options, found right here in the motherland. 


1. Beriwell

Beriwell is the latest addition to the acai scene, and it dishes out acai soft serve – a rare find in Singapore! You can order either a Smoothie ($5.90 to $8.90) or a Superswirl ($6.90/$9.90), a soft serve that comes in two flavours – Acai or Coco Majik (Thai coconut and spirulina). If you can’t decide between the two, opt for a Twist to get both flavours in your Superswirl. What’s more, the interior of the cafe has a tropical vibe, with leafy prints decorating the walls and seats, making it perfect for the ‘gram.

2. Brownice

Almost all the ice-cream (from $3.50) at Italian vegan cafe Brownice, except for Chocolate Midnight Cookie, are gluten-free. These gluten- and dairy-free ice-cream flavours are so rich and mind-blowingly good, some flavours taste even better than ordinary ice-cream! Brownice also offers gluten-free thin-crust pizza and pasta options, though the store encourages you to give them a call before heading down in case stock runs out.

Address: 53 East Coast Road, Singapore 428771
Opening hours: Sun-Thur 12pm to 10pm, Fri-Sun 12pm to 10:30pm
Tel: 6456 6431

3. Shake Farm

Check out Shake Farm not just for their healthy shakes, but for their natural, gluten-free products, from cakes to granola to energy pearls. The energy pearls are basically sweet snack balls full of protein and fibre, and come in flavours such as Hazelnut Cacao ($6.50 for two) and Peanut Sesame ($6.50 for two). Try their assortment of spongy cakes as well, including Banana Vanilla Bean Cake ($6) and Carrot Ginger Chai Cake ($6), which consists of a unique and addictive blend of flavours that will have you wanting more.

4. Open Door Policy

While Open Door Policy is more of a restaurant than a dessert place, you’ll be wowed by the level of dedication Open Door Policy puts into their gluten- and dairy-free desserts. With a goal to promote healthy eating and food sustainability via indoor farming, this restaurant grows their own food! Open Door Policy sure doesn’t compromise on taste either. Try their Signature Fluffy Souffle ($16++), which is flavoured with acai berry and light as a cloud, or their popular Dairy-Free Apple Crumble ($16++), which is packed with sweetness and eight different kinds of spices.  

Address: 19 Yong Siak Street, Singapore 168650
Opening hours: Mon, Wed-Fri 12pm to 11pm , Sat-Sun 11am to 11pm

It’s the ideal place to go when you’re keen on doing some good ol’ soul searching whilst nourishing the body with wholesome baked goods.

Smoocht is a young cafe run by the owners of Brownice, so their ice-cream (from $3.50) is similarly gluten-free, except for the Chocolate Midnight Cookie. Although their waffles and brownies are not gluten-free, Smoocht is currently in the midst of introducing new items to their menu, tentatively from early April. You can anticipate yummy dessert jars and ice-cream sandwiches, all of which come with gluten-free options!

Address: 319 Jurong East Street 31, #01-58, Singapore 600319
Opening hours: Sun-Thur 12pm to 9pm, Fri-Sat 12pm to 9:30pm

I’ve saved the best for the last with Delcie’s Desserts and Cakes. After scrolling through their website and Instagram photos, you’ll really want to head on down to this place sometime to get your fix of desserts. Boasting tasty bakes such as muffins, ice-cream cakes and macarons that are cholesterol-free, vegan and low in calories, Delcie’s Desserts and Cakes has categories especially catered to diabetic patients, vegans, people with gluten sensitivity, and even babies. One lovely cake you shouldn’t miss is their Chocolate Cheesecake ($78). It even comes with decorative rose petals which you can reuse through brewing a warm cup of rose tea! It’s no wonder why Delcie’s Desserts and Cakes prides itself by the slogan ‘When we bake, it becomes healthy!’.
