What I miss the most about working in an office is not the fast Wi-Fi or comfy chairs, but the sweet, sweet air-conditioning. A quick Google search shows that the current weather is 35 degrees Celsius, but the RealFeel is 39 degrees Celsiusâhelp.
Not to fret, those who are melting like me can cool down with these ice cream delivery services available during Circuit Breaker. From gelato to vegan ice cream and even old-school ice cream, this list can help you get yummy relief sent to your doorstep.
1. Birds of Paradise Gelato Boutique
Birds of Paradise is a popular gelato shop at Katong and Jewel Changi Airport that specialises in floral and herb-based ice cream flavours, such as Strawberry Basil, Pandan and Peach & Rose Sorbet. A pint goes at $17 or $20, depending on the flavour, and thereâs a minimum order of three pints and maximum order of four pints for delivery. Island-wide delivery is available at a flat fee of $8.

Creamier has won the hearts of young and old with their creamy, flavour-packed ice cream.

The delivery fee is $18, but you can get it free if your order is $65 or more.
3. Tomâs Palette
Tomâs Palette first came into my radar when they launched their salted egg yolk ice cream, and theyâve continued to impress with more wacky flavours such as White Chocolate Nori. The cosy cafe recently shifted to 51 Middle Road, and theyâre offering delivery during this tough period. Each tub goes at $18, with a delivery fee of $11. Delivery is free for orders of $54 and above.
