[Event] Twinkle & Treats: A Sweet Pink Christmas Pop-Up by Plaza Singapura X Museum of Ice Cream

This festive season, Plaza Singapura and the Museum of Ice Cream (MOIC) are set to bring a magical Pink Christmas experience for everyone. For the first time ever, a mesmerizing pink-themed lights show will take place across the 170-metre frontage of Plaza Singapura along Orchard Road, while the Museum of Ice Cream will unveil Singapore's largest ice-cream inspired igloo. Complementing these attractions will be a range of festive activities and workshops happening from 22 November to 25 December. Supported by Singapore Tourism Board (STB), this magical Christmas activation is set to bring excitement to Orchard Road, making it a top lifestyle destination and complementing other festivities in the area. 

Be captivated by a dazzling Christmas lights show happening every Friday to Sunday evening from 22nd November to 15th December, and every evening from 20th to 25th December. With three showtimes to choose from (7:30pm, 8:30pm and 9:30pm), you can catch the light show before or after dinner. End the night with a special touch: scan a QR code to project your festive wishes and greetings on the event grounds. Keep your eyes peeled for festive rewards codes during the scheduled light shows that can be used to redeem additional exclusive rewards

Chill out in Singapore's largest ice-cream inspired igloo, snap some beautiful photos and check out the fun activities inside. 

Kids are having so much fun at this Igloo Sprinkle Pool! When my girl entered, the first thing she did was jump into the sprinkle pool before checking out the rest of the activities inside. 

Capture perfect photos at this largest-than-life twinkling snow globe, located at the heart of the Igloo. Choose to stand behind the globe to create the illusion that you're inside, or stand in front for a different perspective. If you are game enough, you can also take videos of you dancing behind the globe. 

My girl joined in the Dessert Squishy Painting Workshop, where she painted a squishy donut. The staff helped dry it and packed it in a personalized gift bag. She named her ice cream 'Icena'. The dessert squishy painting workshop take place every Saturday and Sunday from 22 November to 25 December 2024, with sessions at 1pm, 3pm, 5pm, 7pm and 9pm. Each 20-minute session costs $15 per participant.  

We penned down our wishes and hung them on one of the Christmas trees in the magical Pinkmas forest. Afterwards, we indulged in the ice cream we picked. My girl had the rich and velvety Double Chocolate Ice Cream with Chocolate Fudge and Marshmallow, while I opted for the dairy-free Strawberry Sorbet with Gold Glitters for a refreshing flavour. The other two flavours we didn't choose were the Brown Butter Ice Cream with Pecan and Peppermint Chocolate Chip. 

We were very lucky as we spotted our favourite TikToker, RunnerKao, and my girl even took a photo with him! She also received a Christmas candy cane from the Gingerbread Man and took a photo with him. 

Snap and share your sweet moments on social media and tag @plazasingapura and @museumoficecream to redeem a FREE cup of ice cream. This is limited to the first 50 redemptions per light show (7:30pm, 8:30pm and 9.30pm) every Friday to Sunday.

Here we are at the MOIC's Pet-friendly Cafe and Dessert Bar where a dog run path is just next to the place below. This dessert bar is opened to public so even if you do not have a ticket to the Museum of Ice-Cream, you can enter and had a relaxing time here too. I was here enjoying the breeze while waiting for Meryl and Joe to reach and enter the Museum of Ice Cream together. 

Exploring the Museum of Ice-Cream, MOIC

Locking up our heartfelt wishes

The first thing we did when we entered was to come up with our own ice-cream name and wrote it down on a piece of sticker. Mine was Choc-a-Mallow because I love chocolate and marshmallow ice cream. This room is where I get my cotton candy, played claw machine but didn't catch anything (we had to get the tokens from the next room). Here is also where we penned down our wishes and locked them up on the wall. 

Welcome to California - Ice Cream Stop #1

We had our first scoop of ice-cream by Denzy Gelato. The options were Double Chocolate or Pink Guava (Vegan) and I had the Double Chocolate. Fun Fact: Americans eat twice as much ice cream as the average person around the world and California specifically tops the chart for ice cream consumption. 

Composing and leaving a message behind

We spent quite some time here as it's a room where we can compose and create our own messages on the wall. While many had left some interesting messages, I just left my online @ behind.

Welcome to Scream's Diner - Ice Cream Stop #2

We enjoyed a creamy soft serve ice cream in a crispy waffle cone topped with rainbow sprinkles (optional). This is also the stop to order drinks as they serve an exclusive menu of milkshakes, cocktails, coffee, tea and other concoctions. 

Took a break from eating ice-cream to take some photos instead.

Welcome to The Potong Palace - Ice Cream Stop #3

Tried the mini Potong Ice Cream presented by Kind Kones, we had the two different flavours each - Pandan and Pulut Hitam and both are vegan. Fun Fact: Meaning 'cut' in Malay, potong refers to the way this treat is prepared! It all started during the past when refrigerators grew in everyday use and desserts like sweet corn or red bean soup were freeze to preserve them. The frozen blocks were then cut into single servings and consumed during hot days.  

Welcome to Playspace - Ice Cream Stop #4

Many of us had fond memories of afternoons spent at playgrounds and the having melted ice cream between sticky fingers. In this room, we discovered the joy with the nostalgic ice cream sandwiches in either cookies and cream or pineapple coconut (vegan) flavours. The three of us all chose cookies and cream. Instead of the iconic dragon playground, here is Singapore's first and only unicorn playground. 

Banana Tunnel for some selfies and wefies

Love the photos taken in this tunnel! Fun Fact: Not all bananas are created equal. Apple, Cavendish or Gros Michel bananas are best used for banana splits and other desserts as they are generally sweeter and creamier, while other varieties are typically used for cooked banana desserts like goreng pisang (banana fritters)!

Welcome to Craft Room - Ice Cream Stop #5

Here is where we get our last ice cream treat and we are having scoops of Ben & Jerry's ice cream. There's tables and chairs where we could sit down and slowly enjoy our ice cream. We also took this chance to fold out the ice cream truck. 

Make a Splash at MOIC Sprinkle Pool

We took a dive and many boomerangs and photos in this giant sprinkle pool. Fun Fact: The creation of Sprinkle Pool was inspired by the founder, Maryellis Bunn, who dreamed of swimming in an ocean filled with sprinkles. 

Overall, the Museum of Ice Cream offers a fun and unique experience with various ice cream tasting throughout. I'm glad to have Meryl and Joe joining me this round. Many thanks for capturing so many nice and cool photos and videos together. We spent about 2 hours inside and do remember to visit the washroom before entering as their only washrooms are in the lobby. It's a one-way experience which means we should only move forward to the next room and no backtracking allowed. Photos in this blogpost are not inclusive of certain experience rooms as some I only have videos. Do visit and enjoy the full experience yourself.
