While tried and tested outlets like Art Of Delight and Apsara Ice Creams are great options, we take a look at other restaurants that fly under the radar. Think Jim Bean Bread Pudding and Red Velvet White Chocolate Ganache Lava Pancakes.
Capella
Started by Manisha Patte and Prajval Rai, this cute patisserie was launched in Mangalore in 2017, before they decided to expand to Bengaluru. They opened their doors in Bengaluru in October 2019. While the menu offers cupcakes, macarons, cakes, cheesecake jars and brownies, the must-trys here are the Victoria Sponge cupcake, the Ferrero Rocher Cupcake, Lemon Macaron and Mocha Macaron. Rs.400++ for two
Frosty Crumble
This delivery-only dessert parlour, which serves up a variety of ice cream sandwiches, is by the people behind Art Of Delight. Present in nine locations around the city, it is run by Ayaz Hameed and partners Zainab Hameed (his sister), and Ajay Perumal. Their most popular order is the Parle G and Salted Caramel ice cream sandwich, which is covered with chocolate and toasted almonds. Rs.100 for two
Edesia
This outlet is the dessert wing of popular food delivery service, Fresh Menu. With branches spread across the city, they offer everything from indulgent cookies to decadent cakes. Some of their popular desserts include Oreo Cheesecake and the Sea Salt Brownie Cookie. What we love about Edesia, is that the menu also has options for those who are watching what they eat. Choose from options such as Keto Nutty Truffle Jar and Blueberry Oatmeal Cake. Rs.150 for two
Wats Your Scoop
This is a friendly neighbourhood parlour with a frozen stone slab where all the magic happens. Some of their most interesting flavours are Mystic Matcha (vanilla ice cream, matcha tea, mint leaves and organic honey) and Lychee Lush (vanilla ice cream, fresh lychee and lychee stew). Rs.200 for two
Uncle Peter’s Pancakes

This outlet has an extensive menu with pancakes of every imaginable kind, from Apple Cinnamon Pancake with Whipped Cream to Red Velvet White Chocolate Ganache Lava Pancakes and Peanut Butter Filled Chocolate Pancakes. There are also an array of savoury options such as Chicken Sausage and Cheese Pancake Pizza and Honey Roasted Chicken Pancakes. Rs.300 for two
