Decadent, delightful and so darn delish. Forget that diet ‘cos all we can think about are these artisanal chocolates in Singapore.
These aren’t your ordinary chocolates. Upping the ante in flavour, presentation and technique, artisanal chocolates by local makers are truly the best in Singapore. From small-batch cacao creations to a rhapsody of flavours, no two chocolate bars and bonbons are the same. So put aside your tarts, pies, donuts, croissants and cakes for a sec and indulge in these confectionery treats!
Best artisanal chocolates in Singapore
1. Chocolate Origin

Mention Chocolate Origin and we immediately think of the decadent chocolate cake with a silky smooth glaze. But for the perfect gift, the chocolate truffles and bars will have you sorted. Available in hazelnut, milk or dark variations, a box of truffles has 20 pieces – each packed with creamy and intense chocolate notes. The bars come in six interesting flavours: black tea, chilli, dark chocolate, galangal, rose and sea salt.
Chocolate Origin, available online and at multiple locations including Jewel Changi Airport and United Square
2. Chocolate Anatomy
What started as a personal project for friends and family has now turned into a chocolate enterprise. Chocolate Anatomy is out and about creating new and exciting recipes that feature, you guessed it, chocolate. Try the recipe that started it all, the classic truffle in flavours like raspberry, espresso, and salted caramel. Also, check out the seasonal menu of omakase-style boxes for a customised experience.

3. Leela’s Fine Chocolates

Wanting to share her passion for all things chocolate, this Irish lawyer-turned-chocolatier had made many attempts to resist a career in food but decided to pursue it after coming to Singapore. Order yourself some chocolate classics like mint, orange, and raspberry truffles. Or if you’re looking for more of a show stopper, the large chocolate high heel has got us giggling and wondering, is that really chocolate?

4. Janice Wong

Janice Wong is no stranger to the culinary world. The award-winning chef pushes boundaries in the confectionery scene with bold flavours and innovative cooking techniques. The result? Tasty works of art. Don’t be fooled by the fun, vibrant designs. Bonbon creations like chilli padi, kaffir lime caramel, BBQ bak kwa praline and jasmine milk tea will definitely challenge everything you know about chocolate. But wait, there’s more! Edible crayons used to draw on rice paper are sure to be a hit with the kids. We’ve seen and tried ‘em ourselves. Let’s just say, our minds were blown.

5. Lemuel Chocolate
This one’s for serious chocolate lovers. A trip to a popular bean-to-bar confectionery store in Japan is what inspired founders Ronald Ng and Hideki Sakanishi to create their own brand of chocolates. And the rest, as they say, is history. Today, Lemuel Chocolate is one of the finest chocolatiers in Singapore, thanks to its attention to quality, flavour and use of sustainable cocoa beans from around the world. Every single-origin chocolate bar and bonbon set is packaged beautifully so there’s no need to worry about wrapping your gift.

6. Fossa Chocolate

One of the first names that come to mind when we think about Singapore chocolatiers is Fossa Chocolate. From roasting, cracking and winnowing the cacao beans to refining ‘em into chocolate to moulding and tempering, everything is done by hand at a workshop in Singapore. The team continues to surprise us with cutting-edge collections – from earthy tea chocolate to spicy mala (say what?) to salted egg cereal. The chocolate bars are filled with levels of flavour and the packaging is next level. In fact, you can customise your own for special events.
