Calorie-counting isn’t really our thing, but considering how much we’ll be eating and drinking this festive season, we’ve got to make sure all those calories count.
For Christmas desserts worth an extra half hour at the gym, SweetSpot at Marina Bay Sands hits all the right, well, spots. Dark chocolate lovers ought to go for the chocolate chestnut church Yule log, which comes with some very yum hazelnut biscuit crunch. Those hankering for some fruitiness can try their mascarpone cheese-mango Yule log (comes with lady finger sponge) and the caramelised apple Yule log, which features a spiced chocolate sponge. Each one-kilogram logcake is priced at $65. More traditional options are also on offer, including Christmas stollen ($35) and panettone ($30).

If you’ve got people to impress, nab the SweetSpot signature Christmas Tree ($65), a too-pretty-to-eat edible décor that consists of chocolate-covered candied almonds topped with toasted coconut flakes and more chocolate-y ornaments. Talk about a conversation starter!
It’s good manners to treat your host with a present or two, so be sure to pick up the SweetSpot hamper box ($185) – which consists six different items, such as a bottle of Champagne and a box of assorted macarons – or the SweetSpot three-tier gift box (12 pieces of macarons and 12 pieces of chocolate pralines and nuts, $68).
