10-Course White Rabbit Candy Afternoon Tea Set For $78 Has Bunny-Shaped Scones, Baked Lobster
Once Upon a Tea Time with White Rabbit at The Westin turns the beloved milky candy into a playful mix of sweet and savoury bites.
It’s not every candy that can lay claim to being the taste of the childhood of multiple generations. White Rabbit, with its iconic blue-and-white wrapper and sweet, milky taste, is just that.
A new afternoon tea experience allows you to indulge in that sweet nostalgia for a leisurely hour or three, while looking out to a beautiful sea view at The Westin Singapore’s Lobby Lounge, Level 32.
Once Upon A Tea Time With White Rabbit, running until May 14, serves up 10 bite-sized courses, a cup of White Rabbit Milk Tea and free-flow coffee or tea for $78 per person.

The teatime set makes use of White Rabbit flavours in a variety of ways, including in the savoury courses. A fried fritter with a creamy crab roe paste filling, for example, carries the fragrance of the milky candy in a blend of salty-sweet dynamics.
There are also bunny-shaped scones served with White Rabbit dips, a bunny-shaped White Rabbit Milk pudding and a vanilla egg tart with bird’s nest and White Rabbit Milk.
The menu is designed to not be overly sweet, and, to balance it out, there are savoury courses without a heavy-handed White Rabbit paw: Baked Spiny Lobster with torched mentaiko mayonnaise and a Japanese-style sashimi salad.
What we found surprisingly enjoyable was the fragrant White Rabbit Milk Tea, with the addition of grass jelly and a hint of elderflower.
