Museum Of Ice Cream @ Singapore: Ice Cream Museum Review
Hey friends! Today's blog is going to be a fun and slightly longer one! The Museum Of Ice Cream is finally open in Singapore and it's a bit hit among the locals. When I first found out about its opening in May, I immediately booked tickets for me and my boyfriend at S$44/person. The Museum Of Ice Cream has 14 rooms, unlimited ice cream, and lots of photo opportunities! It's located at 100 Loewen Rd which is at Tanglin and is quite a walk from the nearest bus stop. I suggest taking a cab or Gojek in.

Our slot was at 11.30am on a Sunday. When we arrived, we saw many people queueing outside the entrance to the museum. We were asked to show our ticket and vaccination status and then given these cute wrist tags.

Then we entered! In the first room, you could see the giant 'Museum Of Ice Cream' sign, and there were also tables for you to write down your ice cream name!

I chose 'Faith Joan Choc' because I love chocolate, and my boyfriend got 'Matcha Tan'.

Before the session started, we were also encouraged to go to the toilet first because the only washroom is outside and the exhibition is one-way so it's best to empty your bowels here first.
In the second room, there were little iPads where you could draw your own ice cream designs and have them appear on the walls. We both tried and failed terribly but if you have a knack for drawing, go and knock yourselves out!
The third room had this giant pink castle, where you can place a little ball on a tower and watch it roll down the installation. Most adults skipped this one, but the kids went crazy over it.

The fourth room was an ice cream station and we were served two flavours - one was the regular cookies and cream one, and the other was this alcohol-infused lime ice cream. Both were from Haagen-Dazs and tasted pretty good.

You can take off your masks to eat but the rule is that you have to be seated when you do so.
The next room took writings on the wall to the next level! The walls had these alphabetical magnets all over them and you could rearrange the letters to form your names or a cute message. We spent some time here because it was quite fun!
Room six was diner-themed and had one of my favourite decors. It was also very crowded because you could eat ice cream here as well!

There was a pink working jukebox all the way at the end and some telephone booth props.

This time the ice cream came in cones and they tasted so good! It was cinnamon-flavoured with rainbow toppings. The staff were very friendly and one offered to help us take a picture.
In the seventh room, there was this huge bouncy castle and the little ones definitely had a field day here. Adults can jump if they want, but I was wearing a skirt so I passed.

Then came this gorgeous arched walkway which you've probably seen on social media. It's one of the most photo-worthy spots in the museum as well, so of course, we spent some time here before moving on!

The eighth room was quite big and empty, and there was a small ice cream booth selling potong ice cream! It was red bead flavoured and was quite refreshing. Nothing much to do in this room except eat ice cream, so we took our time.

After our ice cream was done, we went up the stairs to another room which had a banana swing and a large playground. You could eat ice cream here too, but we skipped it because we were so full.

Room 10 was interesting because it was the only dark room, and it was filled with mirrors and glowing neon ice cream installations!

Once we exited, we saw this large arched installation made out of bananas, and it really resembled a rainbow! Trust me, it looks prettier than it sounds.

After snapping all our photos, we came across this postcard room where you could leave messages and stick them on the wall. The messages were quite cute and some were even NSFW as you can imagine the topic of ice cream can leave lots of room for the imagination. We took some of the postcards to bring home as well.
Room 13 was an arts and crafts space and you can build your own ice cream truck. There were not many seats available so most people skipped this room, but do try making the truck if you can! It wasn't as easy as it looks and we butchered the first one.

We also got to eat a fried ice cream ball with rainbow sprinkles which wasn't my favourite, but my boyfriend liked it. I think I made a mistake by popping the entire thing into my mouth - you should eat it slowly!

The final room was the sprinkles pool! It's open to all ages and anyone can enter, but you have to take off your shoes first.

It was quite hard to move around the pool because the 'sprinkles' were quite big, and I even lost a ring while navigating through it. At least the pictures came out really nice.

You can also lie down on the sprinkles and take a wefie with the huge ceiling mirror above.
Once we exited, we were ushered into the souvenir shop and checked out the merchandise. The merchandise was very pretty and aesthetic and I was almost tempted to buy a few things! A quick look at the price tag deterred me though.

We lounged around in the shop while waiting for our cab because once you go out there's no aircon and it's so hot! It's also easy to get a Gojek because many people will be cabbing in, and you'll just be taking the car out.

I enjoyed my experience here and it was much more fun than expected. I initially expected it to be gimmicky and pretty but not so interesting, but the fun factor was present as well as the aesthetic part of it. S$44 for the tickets seemed quite expensive at first, but considering that the installations are so interactive and you get ice cream, it's pretty worth it.
I also like how there's no pressure to rush through the exhibitions and it's very free and easy.
The crowd was also very manageable, and most people just moved along when they were done and did not really hog any space. Overall we took about 90 minutes to go through the whole thing.
If you're still on the fence about whether you want to visit the ice cream museum - stop pondering and just go! It's very worth it and is a great bonding experience with friends and family. It's also better to go now than before travel resumes and the tourists start coming in as well.
And that's all for today's post, hope you enjoyed it and see you next post!
