Decadent Delights: Top Chocolate Shops in Singapore
Did you know that dark chocolate with at least 70% or more cacao concentration is packed with more antioxidants than green tea? Consuming no more than one ounce of it a day can be a healthy alternative to drinking tea!
However, even if you don’t eat chocolates for their limited health benefits, they sure can heal a broken heart or sour mood!
So, if you’re looking to make someone smile today or simply satisfy your sweet tooth, here are the best places to get chocolates in Singapore! We even included stores that specialise in dark chocolate and Singaporean flavours!
Fossa Chocolate

Contact Details: +65 6420 6848

Fossa Chocolate stands out as a top chocolate brand in Singapore, known for its diverse and unconventional flavour options. From Spicy Mala to Duck Shit Dancong, they excel at transforming unlikely flavours into delectable chocolate bars.
Rest assured, their Duck Shit Dancong doesn’t contain real duck manure. It’s a blend of Dancong tea (translated to “duck poop” in Chinese), longan, and malt, showcasing Fossa’s commitment to distinctive flavours in every bar.
A few of their other popular flavours include Nanyang kopi (coffee), satay sauce, salted egg cereal, and pineapple tart. You can tell from their bestsellers that Fossa pays homage to local flavours, so if that’s what you’re after, this is a shop to look out for!
| Tips: Fossa Chocolate also sells vegan chocolate creations for customers with specific dietary restrictions. Their vegan collection, however, is limited. Unfortunately, requests for vegan versions of their bestsellers are currently unaccepted, but you can order customised chocolates for larger orders for weddings or corporate events. If you want to experience what it’s like to make chocolate at Fossa, you can book private or corporate workshops. Ingredients and chocolate flavours will depend on your budget. The higher the budget, the more gourmet and unique flavours you’ll be working with! |
Mr Bucket Chocolaterie
Address: 13 Dempsey Rd, #01-03/04, Singapore 249674
Contact Details: +65 8947 0863
Operating Hours: Monday to Wednesday, 11:00 am to 7:00 pm, Thursday to Saturday, 11:00 am to 10:00 pm, Sunday, 11:00 am to 7:00 pm
Mr Bucket Chocolaterie specifically crafts chocolate using cacao beans sourced from all over Asia. If you’re looking for chocolates in Singapore that support Asian farms, then Mr Bucket Chocolaterie should be on your radar.
One of their most popular treats is the chocolate dragees, which is a type of sweet that consists of nuts and berries covered in dark or milk chocolate. The result is a crunchy and chewy bunch of bite-sized chocolates that burst in flavour once you bite into them.
Other creations include 60% to 80% dark chocolate bars in flavours like Earl Grey, orange peel, coffee, pepper, and pandan coconut. Seasonal releases like cacao sake, wine, and granules for hot chocolate are also bestsellers (until they run out!).
| Tips: Although Mr. Bucket Chocolaterie lacks halal certification, they provide halal ingredients and toppings for customising your chocolate slab. Gelatin is not utilised in their chocolate-making process. However, it’s advisable to inform the staff of your dietary preferences for assurance. Additionally, the chocolaterie occasionally organises workshops and special events for chocolate decorating. Stay updated by checking their Instagram page or website for further details! |
Lemuel Chocolates
Address: 1 Vista Exchange Green, #01-04/05 The Star Vista, Singapore 138617
Operating Hours: Monday to Sunday, 10:00 am to 9:00 pm
Before co-founding Lemuel Chocolates in 2017, Ronald Ng harboured a lifelong dream of crafting the finest bean-to-bar chocolate. Starting from a tiny workshop, he meticulously roasted beans and moulded bars from scratch.
A lot of Ronald’s creations are made with 70% dark chocolate from African, South American, and Asian cacao beans. The dark chocolate base is also used for his cakes, brownies, bonbons, macarons, and even speciality tea.
A single bar will set you back around $15, while a box of 12 bonbons costs $42. Occasionally, Lemuel Chocolates releases limited edition chocolates for annual celebrations like Lunay Year boxes and hand-painted and crafted Easter Eggs.
| Tip: While Lemuel Chocolates offers delivery services for online purchases, they cannot provide this service for items found in their physical store. Note that only a select number of chocolate crafts are available online, so if you want to go through all of their offerings, it’s best to visit the physical store. You can, on the other hand, pick up your orders between 11:00 am and 8:00 pm daily. Cake and pastry orders are advised to be picked up between 1:00 pm and 6:00 pm only, however. |
Awfully Chocolate

Operating Hours: Monday to Thursday, 11:00 am to 10:00 pm, Friday, 11:00 am to 11:00 pm, Saturday to Sunday, 8:00 am to 10:00 pm
Established in 1998, Awfully Chocolate aimed to redefine chocolate consumption in Singapore. While chocolate was primarily enjoyed as a pastry during the 1990s, the founders sought to reintroduce chocolate cakes and fudge to the local scene.
The chocolate store is now famous for its Original All Chocolate Cake, which is a simple dark chocolate cake layered with dark chocolate fudge. One of the reasons why it’s so popular is that although it’s covered in chocolate, it’s not overly sweet!
Other treats you can get at Awfully Chocolate are gourmet bars like roasted soba, black rice, Biscoff batons, caramel brittle, and hazelnut. You can also get a box of gourmet truffles made with dark chocolate and halal-certified ingredients.
| Tips: Awfully Chocolate also has a bakery and cafe located along East Coast Road, near the Katong-Joo Chiat district. The cafe sells its famous chocolate cakes, pastries, and drinks like tea, coffee, and of course, hot or iced chocolate. Sometimes, Awfully Chocolate releases online exclusives wherein items are only available for online purchasing. Most of their items online are also available in-store, but limited edition online releases can only be ordered online and must be reserved in advance. If you order online with a total bill of $120 and above, your delivery fee is waived! |

See’s Candies started as a small son and mother business in the early 20th century. When Mary See’s husband passed away in 1919, her son, Charles See, brought her to California to start a small candy company, selling treats made by Mary See herself.
Mary See would create candy and chocolates from her kitchen and Charles would sell them in their shop in Los Angeles. Today, See’s Candies is a global brand for all things sweets with iconic treats like chocolate walnut fudge and peanut brittle.
The brand sells all sorts of chocolate types from dark to milk chocolate as well as special creations for Valentine’s Day and Easter. If you’re looking for chocolates in Singapore that are perfect for gifting, a box from See’s might do the trick!
| Tips: There is only one See’s Candies branch in Singapore with limited options on display. If you want to order more batches, we recommend buying from their online store here. Their online stores may send over orders from the United States, so delivery may take a while. If you’re unsure of what to get, you can actually ask the staff members to give you samples to try before you make a purchase! It’s usually a hit or miss depending on the staff on duty, but you’re likely to get samples if you buy in big batches! |
