Japanese cafes -- specifically, Hokkaido-based brands -- are getting increasingly popular in Singapore:

And Baristart Coffee is joining the scene with their specialisation in Hokkaido dairy, both in food and beverage.

Here's a quick look at what they have to offer.

Coffees, desserts, and mains

Their coffees are made with Biei Jersey milk that comes from Brown Jersey cattle.

According to their website, there are only about 800 of such cows in Hokkaido, making up just one per cent of the entire cow population there.

Products that are made from this type of dairy are supposed to be creamier and richer than those made with regular milk.

これで3回目です。めっちゃファンって感じがしますw しばらく顔出さない方がいいと思います(￣▽￣) 親友が私のストーリーで見たから行きたかったので、今回もデザートを注文しました！すごく美味しかったです🤤 フードメニューを楽しみにしています！ ➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖➖ This is the 3rd time (3rd day in a row) 🤣🙈 I feel like my vibe is screaming “big fan of you guys so here I am”. Will probably not show my face there for awhile LOL. Besto frendo saw my stories so paid it another visit, coupled with desserts this time. Super delish, don’t think it’d be good for people who aren’t a fan of milky/creamy stuff. Am waiting for their food menu to launch so I can safely go back again- • • • • #baristartwithcoffee #coffee #dessert #newyearneweffortforinstagrampostandcaption #lies #Ilikestoryfunctionmuchmore #hashtagsaremendokusai #outreachisrigged #dopeopleevenbrowsehashtagsanymore #コーヒー #デザート#やっぱストーリー系の方が好き #ちょっと新年のやる気出さないとやばいかも #うん2019年はもう無理

There appears to be a wide variety of desserts at Baristart Coffee too, ranging from cream puffs to cakes and parfaits:

This Cream Puff is the bomb! Pastry is crispy and soft, salty and sweet, and filled with rich creamy Hokkaido milk custard. @baristartcoffee_sg #baristartcoffee

Yuzu honey parfait❤️ In Sapporo Hokkaido, very common to have parfait after drink at night. We call “ Shime parfait “ After drink, you need a parfait break! 😉👍

However, the Shiro Kuma Hokkaido -- shaved iced presented in the shape of a bear -- steals the spotlight just by being cute:

We visited the newly opened @baristartcoffee_sg at Tras Street where only Hokkaido milk 🥛 is used to make its desserts 🧁 🍨 🍮 and coffee. Here is the Shiro Kuma Hokkaido shaved ice 🍧 that’s shaped like a bear 🐻 served with vanilla ice cream with Hokkaido BIEI Jersey milk. Too cute.
