Museum of Ice Cream Singapore: All You Need to Know

This multi-sensory museum serves both as an archive and a gallery that celebrates everyone’s favourite cold dessert: ice cream.

The sweet, creamy dessert takes centre stage, as every installation inside features things we love about ice cream. From pools made with sprinkles to amazing, colourful environments inspired by sweet toppings, the museum looks to evoke the joys of childhood nostalgia while creating new memories at the same time.

The museum celebrates the chilly dessert by creating highly imaginative installations about it. Whether you’re visiting with friends or family, the museum gives a newfound appreciation for the dessert. Here are some of the museum’s fantastic exhibits:

• Museum of Modern Ice Cream: Start your tour of the museum by creating your own chilled sweet treat.
• Playspace: This dragon-themed unicorn playground has the colour pink all over and is a Singapore-exclusive. Be sure to swing on the giant bananas and cherries!
• Banana Split: Pink and yellow bananas form the archway of this tunnel, creating quite a whimsical visual.
• Scream’s Diner: Think of a retro diner with a booming jukebox and chequered flooring but make it pink!
