Now that I've discovered Tom's Palette, I've got to confess that I'm soooo in love with their ice-cream I will visit the place every week! Located at Shaw Towers, it's a convenient walk away from Suntec City after church services in New Creation (walk out from Precious Thots outlet). I heard about this place from a close friend of mine Offered in 3 sizes (Small, Medium & Large), each cup comes with a selection of 2 flavors.A small cup would cost you $3.20, a medium costs about $4.70 and the larg

Offered in 3 sizes (Small, Medium & Large), each cup comes with a selection of 2 flavors.
A small cup would cost you $3.20, a medium costs about $4.70 and the large one at $5.20!
This is a medium cup of Chocolate Sorbet mixed with Rum and Raisin. My friends and I had fun guessing each other's flavor without telling each other, and we could easily tell the taste of the above ice-cream. The chocolate sorbet was super thick, if you are a thick chocolate lover you would love this! The Rum and Raisin had a sweet smelling fragrance from the wine they've used, it had a slight taste of rum.
This small cup holds the Banana & Sarsi! You can see that the colours are really appealing, and we could tell straightaway from the flavor of banana and it kind of makes us feel healthy (a perceived thought). However, the Sarsi didn't taste like sarsi but it gives off a sweet and an unexpected taste, a unique flavor. The ice-cream melted really fast, probably due to the hot weather of Singapore, thus we can't really enjoy licking it but most of us are simply scooping up a generous portion before storing them in our mouths for savouring.
I had the Hazelnut and Milk with nuts ice-cream and I thought it was a perfect combination! Too bad I just ordered a small cup. I took my time trying about 4 flavours and the ice-cream server seemed quite frustrated with me and asked, 'have you decided what you want? ' I guess it was a fun time trying flavors with the ice-cream stick, especially when there are so many flavors and you are spoilt for choice! My friends couldn't tell both flavours, they tried their best to guess but could only come as near as vanilla and toffee. However, we all enjoyed these different flavors very much! They also have special flavors that are available only for the day and they update them on their Facebook page.
Tom's Palette also have a corner where you can get free water, similar to other ice-cream outlets. However it was placed in such a secluded position in the corner that not many notice it. At the other corner of the shop is where people pinned up their tissue paper (serviettes) with their messages on it, which is quite strange an art but I guess if you're a great chef of deserts you might not make a great artiste for interior designing.
Over here you'll see two ladies serving ice-cream, and I felt that there should be a man because the ladies are doing all the tough work digging into the ice-cream and scooping them up, which may have attribute to their lack of patience while the customers give careful thought on what flavors to purchase.If you desire an affordable dessert trip with your friends, Tom's Palette will surely not disappoint you! In fact, it really made me feel like a happy child as the shop was filled with laughters from (mostly adults) and teenagers-alike!
