A two-minute walk from Chinatown MRT station, Mocchi by Fukusen features desserts made with matcha and hojicha from Yamamasa Koyamaen, a long established Kyoto tea company.
But in addition to heritage, their highlight item is actually the very modern and photogenic soft serve teddy bear soaking in a tea latte.

While you can order Houjicha or Matcha latte (S$4.80) on its own, top it with an adorable soft serve teddy bear.
If you have time for dine-in, check out the Ichigo Kuma (S$12.80), which features a strawberry cream cheese parfait bear, strawberry jelly, strawberry compote, cream, and crumble.

You gotta be quick with your camera before the bear succumbs to the intense tropical heat though.
Bear-y different
