Dropped by around 6pm, hence was left with a small selection. The cake is just alright; have had better. Flavours aren't strong and were rather diluted, nothing stood out amongst the pairing. Mousse texture wasn't as fine while the sponge within was rather dry and crumbly as expected. It's just alright. Loved the atmosphere though, and that they served Niko Neko matcha and hojicha.

The food and drinks we had is great. Cant remember the name of the pastries, but the Strawberry with Milk drink is a must try!

The place is highly instagramable too! Very conducive environment 👍🏻

Never skip the sweet and unique food, the first time I came here, the impression was very luxurious, the location was very Instagrammable. The various foods and drinks available are unique and varied. I really like this place, the service is also good. IG: @Indra_Isnato

Beautiful place with pretty cakes, found it when we are nearby and needed a place for dessert. Didn’t enjoy the sesame matcha but I liked the strawberry matcha latte!

Lovely and cosy cafe. The cakes are great, the matcha cake tastes supreme, would say a must try! Too bad the barista was not on duty during our visit, so they only offer limited choice of beverage.

Very exquisite designer cakes and lush surroundings, the shop name “ukiyo” sounds very Japanese and the luxurious decor makes this place remarkable.

We arrived at 3:30pm and there were very few varieties left to choose from. We tasted the Cecilé, Sienna and Geneva - very special names were given for the cakes.

1. Cecilé, Dark Chocolate Fudge Cube, it is no ordinary cube, it delivers great amount of chocolate that melts in the mouth.
2. Sienna, Earl Grey Dark Chocolate Tart. The cream was chocolatey and not too sweet.
3. Geneva, Hazelnut Praliné Mille Feuille - we like this pastry but we felt the pastry could be more crispy.

We are definitely going to return to try all of the rest of cakes created by the chef.

Great chocolate masterpieces!!! Thank you Chef!!

A very visually pleasing cafe (not just the interior decorations + desserts presentation).

We visited the cafe on a Thursday shortly after it opens for the day so the cafe was relatively quiet.

Friend ordered a coffee while I tried the Sakura green tea. The cake was also for sharing and like how thick the chocolate was without being overly sweet.

Certainly a good place to catch up with friends or just to enjoy their good desserts and drinks.

Located in a busy area in Mount Austin. The place is a little hard to find as it was nested in the second level of a hotel. The treats were definitely Instagram worthy and the taste of it was good as well. The sweet treats weren’t too sweet and was quite enjoyable. Though it was definitely on the pricier end, the overall experience as still good. The staffs were extremely friendly and were so good in recommending the treats and explaining the different treats to us
