There’s no denying cookies are one of life’s simplest pleasures. What begins with a humble combination of flour, butter, and sugar makes the perfect foundation for indulgent toppings. From artisanal chocolate chip classics to innovative, inspired creations that honour culture and tradition, these cookies aren’t afternoon tea afterthoughts.
For the best cookies on the island, we ask Singapore’s top pastry chefs, whose palates recognise ineffable quality that separates mere sweetness from genuine bliss.

“Luke’s chocolate chip cookie is always served warm. Each cookie is generously filled with chunks of rich chocolate, marrying harmoniously with the soft and chewy cookie dough. It is a simple treat elevated by perfect execution. One can find it in either Luke’s Oyster Bar and Chop House, which comes with a creamy stout milkshake, or the more casual Blue Label Pizza, accompanied by soft serve ice cream.”

Soh Hui Shan, head pastry chef of Wakuda Singapore
“I prefer soft cookies, and Burnt Ends Bakery never fails to delight. I first had the brown butter chocolate chip cookie at the opening, and it was exceptional. High-quality chocolate was used, which is something uncommon these days. The texture was perfectly soft and chewy, just how I like it.”

Kelly Cheah, pastry chef of Le Pristine Singapore
“I love cookies, especially when they’re done New York style; soft, chewy and gooey in the centre. I go to Ralph’s Coffee in Marina Bay Sands for the assorted cookies and cookie sandwiches. I usually request that it be heated up so that the chocolate in the middle of the warm cookie is soft and melty.”

Makoto Arami, chef-owner of Ami Patisserie and winner of the Best Pastry Chef award at Tatler Best Singapore 2025
“The signature Pandan Coconut from Old Seng Choong is my favourite cookie. It has a tasty, distinctly local flavour and a delightful combination of textures that I find interesting. Even though I usually enjoy crunchy cookies, the contrast between the crispy edges and the soft centre keeps me coming back for more.”
