Hot And Cold Ice Cream ‘Roti’ Cones From Prague Great Fun To Eat
These photogenic chimney cones are brought in by the folks behind yogurt chain Yolé.
What are chimney cones? They're a popular street dessert from Prague — imagine a more atas version of our local ice cream sandwich, but served in a conical bready pastry. The smoking 'chimney' effect comes from the melding of cold soft-serve ice cream on warm, freshly baked cones, although in our climate, that hot and cold combo quickly turns into a melting mess. The good news is the firm bready pastry cones are resilient and won’t sag or turn soggy. Popular European dessert chain Good Food Coffee & Bakery from Prague already has franchises in seven countries, including China and Dubai, and now it's here in Singapore, at VivoCity. If the dessert looks familiar, that’s because it isn’t exactly new here. Previous iterations include the now-closed Chimney.SG at Scape*. Despite a less-than-stellar history here, Good Food Coffee & Bakery franchisee Rayner is still confident his chimney cones will fair well. “I think Singaporeans will love it."
