Singapore is a food haven, and if you’re a yoghurt lover, the options for yoghurts in the city will not disappoint.
From light and refreshing to rich and decadent, yoghurt desserts here go beyond the basic parfaits. Whether after something healthy or indulgent, these seven unique yoghurt-based treats offer a little something for everyone.
1. Yoghurt Cheesecake

Yoghurt cheesecake can be the ideal choice if you love cheesecake but don't want to become overly fixated on it. The Greek or natural yoghurt refreshes this dessert by being a little tangy. Creamy but lighter bite than regular cream cheese in texture.
The idea of making yoghurt cheesecake is very simple and clear. Berries, citrus border, and a swirl of delicious chocolate adorn the top. For those who enjoy both cheesecake and yoghurt, this is the perfect combination.
2. Frozen Yoghurt Tarts

These sweets mix the crispiness of a tart crust with the creamy, tangy flavour of frozen yoghurt, making them a bit on the naughty and tart side. And usually, you’ll find fresh fruits, granola, or nuts on top of them, which makes for a balanced snack!
The best part? Frozen yoghurt tarts are customisable. You can choose what you want your yoghurt to taste like (vanilla, mango or matcha) and what you want to put on top. These tarts are gorgeous to look at, and also incredibly textural – exactly what you need from a refreshing Singaporean treat on a hot day.
3. Yoghurt Mochi

Yoghurt mochi is excellent, especially if you're feeling a little risky. With influences from Japan, this delicacy combines the chewy, sticky texture of mochi with a creamy yoghurt filling. The mochi share is a stretchy one; the mochi is uncooked, more like a high-powered dough. The mochi and the yoghurt centre contrast so well; each bite is different.
Yoghurt mochi's flavours include strawberry, matcha, or even more tropical ones like mango or lychee. It's a perfect dessert for those who like to twist traditional mochi. It’s a delightful fusion of cultures and textures.
4. Yoghurt Popsicles

An excellent method to stay cool in Singapore's humid weather is with yoghurt popsicles. The creaminess of yoghurt is combined with fruit flavours like kiwi, mango, or berries in these popsicles. The yoghurt has been kept tangy and fruit-sweet to present a guilt-free, satisfying treat.
These artisanal yoghurt popsicles, found in many cafes and dessert shops in Singapore, now prove how much the ingredients' quality matters. You can have a simple strawberry pop or a layered passionfruit and coconut popsicle; this dessert is refreshing and unique.
5. Yoghurt Panna Cotta

This is traditional with cream (or even chestnut purée!) and substituted yoghurt for a lighter, tangier version. When serving yoghurt panna cotta, you can use it with a drizzle of honey or a topping of fresh berries—this gives you the best of both worlds: creamy and refreshing.
If you’re not in the mood for something less refined, this is an indulgent and sophisticated dessert. Yoghurt panna cotta is a common dessert in Singapore restaurants these days. To elevate this delightful dessert, flavours such as vanilla, passionfruit, or even Earl Grey are infused.
6. Yoghurt Mousse

The traditional airy mousse texture is taken up a tangy notch with yoghurt mousse. It’s light and fluffy, with a hint of tartness that works with fruity or chocolate toppings. For example, yoghurt mousse can be spooned into fancy bowls with a neat garnish such as berries, crushed cookies, or mint leaves or layered up into parfaits.
This dessert is for those looking for something light and indulgent. The creaminess of the mousse doesn’t feel heavy with the yoghurt’s tang. Exotic flavours are available in Singapore, such as a lychee-infused one or coconut yoghurt mousse.
7. Yoghurt Chia Pudding

Yoghurt chia pudding is a nutritious dessert in addition to being quite delicious. The chia seeds steeped in yoghurt are something you should definitely try. The result is a creamy, pudding-like, satisfying, and nutritious texture. This dessert is often layered with fruits and nuts and is a great option for someone looking to have something excellent and wholesome.
For example, dragon fruit and passionfruit are combined with tropical twists, and many cafés in Singapore serve yoghurt chia pudding. The fruits have their natural sweetness; the crunchy chia seeds and tangy yoghurt combine to give us a dessert that is as good for you as it is easy on the eye and mouth.
