Saint Marc Cafe is a Japanese chain that serves up freshly brewed coffee, daily baked breads, ice creams, parfaits and more. Its first cafe opened in Tokyo in 1998 and it has over 300 outlets in Japan now.

 Saint Marc Cafe is best known for its signature chococro (‘chocolate croissant’) which is made of the ‘best blend of Ghana Beans and finest Ecuador beans’ (dark chocolate) wrapped with a flaky and buttery croissant dough.

 When I took one bite of the original Chococro, I was expecting it to ooze chocolate custard but the ratio of filling to crust was just miserable. Even though the chocolate was supposedly made from the finest cacao beans, the taste was no where near finesse. I thought the chocolate tasted weak, like it had been diluted with too much of other ingredients so its consistency was quite thick. However, the croissant dough itself was really good. It was rich in butter flavour without being too greasy and it was light, flaky and airy inside. Definitely one of the best croissant doughs I’ve had in Singapore. Even though the Chococros were put out on bread shelves for self-service, they were warm and crispy.

 The Matcha Daifuku Chococro consisted of the original crispy croissant filled with matcha custard, chocolate, red bean and mochi (sticky rice cake). I actually preferred this to the chocolate one because I could taste the sweetness of the soft red beans, the bittersweet fragrance of the matcha and the chewiness of the mochi that gave different textures with each bite.

If Saint Marc could come up with plain croissants without any filling, I’d probably get more so I could enjoy them with tea. The croissant dough was amazing but the fillings were truly forgettable.

St. Marc’s is quite famous for its dessert! My friend recommended to try the Choco Cro and Little Fuji and it didn’t disappoint! The ice cream was so much that 2 people can share. It was creamy and nice to eat with the bread. The price is affordable too so this place is really good for after meals desserts and chilling.

 Mango: it is designed in a way below contain the ice and in the middle part they put on creamy mango sauce and after that with the fruit mango and designed ice cream . it is very tasty but yet too sweet.

Strawberry : as for the strawberry dessert, it is design in a way that it contain more ingredient than the mango, dessert, it is very unique as on the top they put a lot ingredient such as banana, a chocolate stick , chocolate sauce over on the top of the whole dessert, the combine of all it just so heaven! Really very nice. You guys should try it .

 Their ice chocolate tastes great too! Thick blended chocolate with ice compliment well with the sweet deserts.

Located at a small corner of Marina Square, St Marc Cafe is just like any other coffeehouse where one can sit down and chill with family/friends, with its awesome deserts. It's not very spacious and its seats are limited. So do expect full house during the weekends.

Definitely pairs well with the chocolate sauce, soft serve and banana slices. A dessert to die for!

 The Kintoki Milk was a tad disappointment not for the fact that it was a vanilla flavour "ice kachang" filled with milk with azuki beans on its side, but the fact that I ended eating 2 small pieces of plastic made me felt disgusted with this dessert. Otherwise, this tasted great but definitely not worth the price.

 We ordered a White Chococro ($2.60). The Chococro is essentially a croissant stuffed with chocolate on the inside. The White variant comes with white chocolate. The Chococro felt oily on th exterior but quite dry on the inside, and rather chewy than crispy. The white chocolate does introduce a new level of sweetness into the croissant, but it was too sticky and overwhelmingly sweet for my liking. This would be suitable for sweet tooths however, especially those who love chocolate or milk chocolate.

 Kintoki Milk ($8.80) was essentially a base of condensed milk and shaved ice served with soft-serve ice-cream with a dollop of red bean paste on the side. While it did taste fine, it seemed like a dish which can be replicated without much effort and seemed largely uninspiring. The red bean paste was pretty well done however, with the beans mashed up pretty well for a consistent texture. One thing we were definitely not happy about was finding two pieces of plastic, seemingly coming from a container bag inside the dessert. We are not sure where it came from, but we really do hope they pay a little more attention to what goes into their food.

The Little Fuji is a crunchy danish pastry (more like a croissant) topped with soft vanilla ice cream. They warm up the danish pastry first and drizzle it with caramel.

The Choco Banana Fuji is almost the same but they just used chocolate drizzle and added banana slices. I prefer the Little Fuji but and of these two will make you crave for more.

Pair any of these with the green tea latte and you will be in dessert heaven. Its really that good. I won't lie, some people may find it too sweet or fattening but give this a chance and let me know.

Warning though, bring a little (or maybe a lot) of patience. The queue can get very bad and one of their signature dishes (the chococro) has a very high demand. The result: the queue is long and waiting for it can take longer. During this time the wait for choco cro was 1.5 hours. And yes some people waited. Why? because it's worth it. If you do order the choco cro try the strawberry flavor as well. I personally liked it better.

I urge everyone to try this. You won't be disappointed.
