BlackBall (Closed)

My friend and I came here for the Signature Blackball dessert that many have been telling us about. The layout of the dessert looks enticing but when we started eating it, we were disappointed by the quality of the sweet potato and yam balls. They are not as chewy as other brands that are available in Singapore. An only redeeming point is the quality of the pearls which are chewy and delicious, which definitely goes well with the dessert.

BlackBall Signature consists of a mixture of melted grass jelly, YamQ, Golden Sweet Potato, Yam Balls, Sweet Potato Balls, Read Bean and Pearls. The velvety smooth grass jelly can be slurped together with the other chewy ingredients. There are different textures in the combination but they complement each other perfectly! That is why Da Rabbit and Sweetie Fin would patronize BlackBall every time they visit 112 Katong For detailed review with photos, pls visit: http://musings-of-a-rabbit.blogspot

Had black ball a few times, there was a long queue each time I went. This dessert chain offers an interesting mix of ingredients. My favourite is the signature black ball, which comes with yam, sweet potato, red beans, black pearls, grass jelly. All of them come in different degree of hardness and sweetness, and taste very good when eaten together. The grass jelly is very smooth, probably the one which is least sweet. The black pearls and yam balls are chewy, and the red beans are the sweetest.B

There are quite a number of 小吃 that are being brought over from Taiwan, but when you compare the ones in Taiwan and what's offered here, somehow it will just taste not as good or authentic. However, BlackBall is probably one of the few Taiwan brand or food that I feel that it almost taste as good as the dessert that I had in Taiwan. I always ordered their Blackball Signature that comes in almost everything you can think of - melted glass jelly, taro balls, sweet potato balls, red bean and pearl

This is the signature dish from blackball!! They are alot of different ingredients in the soya beancurd! And for just $3. Really worth it and yummy! The ingredients are chewy and are kind of like pearls. Adds a kind of depth and flavor to the milk curd! Great and filling dessert it will make you slightly full though. Do not eat this after a heavy meal! Love the grass jelly too!

I still remember the first time I ordered this at BlackBall Star Vista branch, and from then on it’s on my to-buy list whenever I walk past BB. The blackball signature consists of Sweet potato – soft and fillingTaro balls – chewy, and sometimes your teeth would get stuck as it sinks in.Grass jelly – bouncy and refreshing. Wholesome shape which makes it look smooth and pretty. Tastes sweet.Red bean – red beans when used with cold refreshing desserts always reminds me of my childhood potong icecre

My sis-in-law bought Blackball signature ($4.90) for me to try and it comes with a combination of YamQ, Golden Sweet Potato, Yam Ball, Sweet Potato Balls, Red Bean, Pearls and of cos grass jelly! The combination of all these really yummy I simply love the sweet potato balls very Q! I can't resist so I went again to order a mix and match ($4.90) you can mix and match 4 different ingredients so I have double yam ball and double sweet potato! And as for the husband he opt for Mix and Match too and

I tried Blackball again, this time i choose to mix my own flavour: glass jelly base with nata de coco and yam. $5.50 each. It tastes a bit weird, the strong glass jelly taste didn't go well with yam or the nata de coco, in fact glass jelly overwhelmed the taste of yam and nata de coco. All I tasted was the grass jelly and more grass jelly of different textures! They gave me a small cup of milk to add into my bowl. I kind of regret adding the milk, as it became too sweet and cloying. I can't stan

Don't forget to download Perx so that you can get a chop with minimum spending! I got Blackball takeaway as I was craving for it. The takeaway bowl looks quite small but surprisingly, it seems like there's quite a lot in it. I shared it with my friend and it was quite filling for the both of us. I still prefer to dine there though. The taste seems better when you're there.

Although I've not had the privilege of flying to Taiwan and personally savouring their street food and delectable desserts that are oh-so-famed, I admit being pretty skeptical of the introduction of Blackball desserts into the local culture. Even though it's still distinctly Asian, with elements such as sweet potato not being an ingredient alien to desserts in Singapore, it's no secret that the youths of Singapore aren't fans of such "traditional dessert ingredients" such as yam/sweet potato.Bla

My first time trying BlackBall and it was good! It has a special kind of taste and the ingredients are really chewy! It costs $4.90 (I think) so it's a little expensive. The kidney beans in the photo has a sweet taste but there's too much ice given. It is a good place for dessert and relaxation but there are limited spaces available and the place is quite small and cram.

This popular Taiwanese dessert finally made its way to Singapore!These are the Blackball's recommended desserts.I find the ambience rather cosy and comfortable, tucked away in a corner of Katong 112.As there were too many desserts to choose from, and all looked equally delectable, I asked the staff for recommendations, who very kindly and patiently assisted me according to my preferred taste. Thumbs up!I ordered the "Jiu Fen" Taro Ball Crushed Ice.This was a takeaway, as I was rushing off but di

Me and my partner have always been wondering the difference between those that comes in disposable bowls vs those that came in the ceramic bowls. Coz some outlets only serve the disposable ones even if you dine in (Bugis+) outlet. I thought it was a case of the disposable bowl is for the shaved ice version but i was wrong. Apparently disposable bowl is for take away or unless specified. Somehow we had a perception that the disposable bowl one holds more than the ceramic one . Anyway the signatu
