Even though the staff was really nice, friendly, and patient, I didn't like the chocolate cake (which was the main reason I came here). It tasted like “American chocolate”; it was not delicate at all. It was just way too sugary and buttery for me. It offered nothing special, no texture, and no flavor. I had the praline one, and it was just heavy chocolate cream with some pieces of nuts. I was also expecting a biscuit and some nutty praline to balance the pastry, but that wasn't the case. The raspberry one was slightly better, but the raspberry jam was just very gelatinous, which wasn't great. Also, quite expensive for such small cakes. I couldn't eat more, though, since it was so heavy.
I didn't try their chocolate bars, so I can't comment on those, but they did look really nice and with some original flavors too. They looked really fancy in sleek pencil boxes. I think overall you're paying more for the “fanciness” of the place than for the quality…

Bought one **scoop** of ice cream ($6.50). It was delicious. There's a sitting area around a fountain outside where you can sit and enjoy the ice cream.

I came to get a gift for my parents, as I had been overseas for a while. The staff, Leona and Ulfa, were so helpful with my selection and helped me choose the most suitable treat according to my family’s liking. Absolutely wonderful staff. Everything was neat and aesthetically pleasing!

Simply incredible, one of the best crème brûlées I’ve ever had. It was creamy, rich, and delicious. The crêpe cake was fantastic too, well-layered and scrumptious. Will definitely be visiting again!

Awfully Chocolate is my favourite place to go for chocolate goodies! I love their chocolate cakes and chocolate bars. Today I went to their Raffles City outlet and met Jiro. He's very friendly and helpful—he suggested what I should get for my three colleagues who are visiting Singapore next week. I am grateful to him and appreciate his help!

Slow and poor service. I will never go to Awfully Chocolate again! I went there yesterday. The staff told me that after I grabbed the item, I would only need to queue for less than 15 minutes. So I went and queued, but it took me more than 45 minutes with only 15 customers ahead of me. There was one guy who facilitated the queue. He gave chocolate cookies to everyone waiting in the queue, but he only ignored me. When it came to my turn, I walked to the cashier. She was a Malay girl, and she was busy talking with her colleagues about non-work related stuff (something about lunch). She packed my chocolate into the paper bag without scanning it, then she looked at the item four times? (If you know the queue is long, please just concentrate on your work. I don't think you couldn't remember two chocolates with one glance.) Please manage your employees well; they are not well-trained, slow, and not attentive.

They offer rich, decadent chocolate cakes and creamy ice cream in a sleek, minimalist setting. Their signature items are the All Chocolate Cake and Hei Ice Cream. The quality of desserts is consistently high. A little pricey, but perfect for satisfying and indulging serious chocolate cravings.

First try at this famous chocolate shop.
The staff were friendly and patient in explaining things.
Yet to try the product.

I always patronise this outlet whenever I'm at Raffles City. Always. But today shall be the last time: 2:15 PM, March 14.
- Both staff members appeared disinterested and snobbish.
- The one scoop of ice cream was half the amount I usually have. When I inquired about it, they gave me another cup with less ice cream, which had already started melting.
Just as well, this unpleasant experience helped make up my mind to start patronising another chocolate ice cream shop nearby instead.
