When the sweltering heat of Singapore starts to bite, there’s one thing that never fails to lift the spirit – a good, refreshing dessert. And when those desserts come inspired by the timeless charm of Hong Kong with a creative, modern flair, you know you’re in for a treat that’s well worth the calories.
Tim Ho Wan, a brand synonymous with top-quality dim sum at wallet-friendly prices, has just launched a new, limited-time dessert collection that’s nothing short of exciting. Available from 13 June 2025 onward, this exclusive line-up brings a contemporary take on classic Hong Kong flavours, crafted with ingredients that balance tradition, novelty and texture. Whether someone is a longtime fan of Tim Ho Wan or simply loves to explore new desserts, this promotion is certainly one to check out.
Let’s dive into the three headline desserts that make this a must-visit for any sweet-toothed diner or food enthusiast looking for something novel yet nostalgic.
1. Dark Chocolate Molten Lava Sesame Ball (爆浆黑巧克力煎堆)
This dessert is a stunning combination of East meets West. It takes the well-loved sesame ball – known for its crisp, golden shell and chewy glutinous rice interior – and fills it with an indulgent, molten dark chocolate core.
When it arrives at the table, it looks deceptively simple. But one bite in, and the rich, warm chocolate comes oozing out in a luscious flow. The dark chocolate isn’t overly sweet, making it perfect for those who prefer a slightly more mature taste profile. The contrast of the toasted sesame crust and smooth filling makes it texturally delightful.
This is an ideal dessert for sharing, or not – depending on how good you are at resisting temptation. It’s also a thoughtful interpretation of traditional Chinese sweets, reimagined for modern palates.
2. Peach Gum, Rice Mochi with Grass Jelly Dessert (桃胶麻薯仙草冻)
This second offering feels like it was tailor-made for Singapore’s weather – refreshing, light, and just sweet enough. Peach gum, known for its health-boosting properties (especially for skin hydration and anti-ageing benefits), is paired with soft, chewy rice mochi and served alongside cool grass jelly.
What makes this dish so special is the interplay between textures and temperatures. The silky, cooling jelly works beautifully with the subtly sweet peach gum, while the rice mochi adds a pleasant chewiness. For those looking to indulge without the guilt, this dessert strikes a nice balance between pleasure and wellness.
It’s a great palate cleanser after a rich meal or a midday refresher when the heat gets too much. And given that peach gum desserts are typically served in more traditional settings, it’s wonderful to see Tim Ho Wan bringing it to a broader audience with their own spin.
3. Jiggly Cat Black & White Hong Kong Milk Tea Pudding (摇摇猫黑白港式奶茶冻)
Possibly the most fun – and photogenic – of the three, this wobbly milk tea pudding is shaped like a cat and layered in shades of black and white. It’s playful, adorable, and undeniably “Instagram-worthy,” but don’t let the cute exterior fool you – the flavour is where it shines.
Drawing inspiration from the classic Hong Kong-style milk tea, known for its strong black tea base and creamy richness, this pudding captures that signature flavour in a smooth, melt-in-the-mouth texture. The black layer offers the familiar bitter tea notes, while the white layer balances it out with sweetness and milkiness.
It’s fun for all ages – kids will love the shape and jiggle, while adults will appreciate the nostalgic taste of an iconic Hong Kong beverage. Whether it’s an end-of-meal treat or a mid-afternoon snack, this pudding is sure to bring a smile.
Why One Shouldn’t Miss This Deal
This dessert promotion at Tim Ho Wan is more than just a limited-time offer – it’s a celebration of cultural fusion, quality ingredients, and a love for dessert innovation.
For those who often struggle to find desserts that are both satisfying and refreshing in Singapore’s warm climate, this trio provides a fantastic solution. Each item on the menu is thoughtfully created with contrasting textures and complementary flavours that make every bite an experience.
But what really makes this promotion worth exploring is the value. Tim Ho Wan has always been known for offering Michelin-quality dishes without the hefty price tag, and they’ve continued this tradition with their dessert line-up. Whether someone pops in for a full dim sum meal or simply drops by for a quick dessert break, they’re guaranteed to find something that delivers in taste and quality.
Moreover, this is a fantastic opportunity to bring along friends or family and introduce them to unique treats they won’t find elsewhere. From indulgent chocolate-filled sesame balls to nourishing jelly bowls and jiggly milk tea cats, there’s something in this trio for every type of dessert lover.
And let’s not forget – these are limited-time offerings, which means they won’t be around forever. For foodies who love catching seasonal menus and those who enjoy trying something new, the clock is already ticking.
The Experience Beyond the Dessert
Part of what makes this promotion so enjoyable is the ambience and consistency across Tim Ho Wan’s outlets. Whether one is visiting their favourite neighbourhood branch or stopping by during a shopping trip, the restaurants maintain a clean, efficient, and family-friendly environment.
Tim Ho Wan also keeps their service swift and attentive, making it easy for diners to enjoy their meals without long waits. For busy professionals on a lunch break or families dining out on weekends, this convenience adds great value to the dining experience.
Their commitment to quality extends from their signature baked buns with BBQ pork all the way to these new desserts, reinforcing why they remain a beloved choice for affordable yet high-standard Cantonese fare in Singapore.
Final Thoughts
In a city overflowing with dining options, it can sometimes feel overwhelming deciding where to go. But when a brand like Tim Ho Wan offers something fresh and exciting, it deserves a spotlight. Their new dessert collection blends creativity, heritage, and craftsmanship – offering something unique without straying too far from the flavours people know and love.
So, if one’s looking to treat themselves this month, cool down after a shopping spree, or simply try something novel with friends, heading to Tim Ho Wan for this seasonal dessert range is highly recommended.
