Sakanoue Cafe’s Famous Kakigori To Launch Permanently In SG This April

Sakanoue Cafe to launch at Drips Bakery Tiong Bahru

If you’ve been to Tokyo, Japan, you may have come across Sakanoue Cafe. This popular Japanese brand, known for their kakigori AKA shaved ice, is coming to Singapore permanently in April 2025!

According to an 8days exclusive, Sakanoue is set to launch at Drips Bakery Cafe‘s Tiong Bahru outlet along Tiong Poh Road. A special ice machine will be brought to the cafe to create the same melt-in-the-mouth texture for the shaved ice dessert.

When we visited their Isetan pop-up last year, we tried the Strawberry Cream Kakigori, which came with layers of shaved ice, milk syrup, tangy strawberry sauce, and freshly whipped cream.

The Yuzu Mascarpone Cheese Kakigori was another highlight. This showstopping kakigori comprised shaved ice, yuzu sauce, lemon zest, cookie crumbles, and whipped cream. The zesty and refreshing dessert was the perfect respite for the humid weather.

While the kakigori flavours at the pop-up rotate daily, there will be a fixed set of options at this upcoming Tiong Bahru launch. According to 8days, you can look forward to six kakigori flavours there, including the Signature Strawberry Shortcake Kakigori ($17.50) and a Singapore-exclusive Signature Blackforest Kakigori ($19.80).

We’ll update this article as soon as we get more information.

In related dessert news, Sweedy Patisserie now has the viral banana pudding matcha: iced matcha latte topped with a dollop of house-made banana pudding. The popular Hougang cafe recently launched their new matcha menu, where you’ll also find a savoury matcha cheese sandwich!
