Mel Pot | Japanese Desserts Using Only Ingredients From Japan

Media Tasting at Mel Pot

Melting under the sweltering heat these days?  Mel Pot, a Japanese dessert brand located within Hokkaido Marche at Orchard Central serves an array of desserts that will provide you matcha respite from the heat and bustling crowd.

We tried the Kyoto Matcha Milk Espuma Shaved Ice (good to share between 2-3 pax) – made using green tea from Kyoto.  Do note that the texture of the ice is  slightly coarse, closer to that of a Japanese kakigori than a Korean bingsu. 

We also found the Kyoto Hojicha Milk Waramochi Tea to be an interesting drink.  Topped with warabimochi instead of the usual tapioca pearls served in bubble tea, the waramochi tea has a slight caramel taste and fragrant roasted tea notes. 

Our favourite has to be the Signature Mel Pudding (Kyoto Black Bean Tea) which is sweet egg custard, made using natural fresh cream from 100% Hokkaido fresh milk thus bringing out the richness of the egg and subtle hints of black bean.
