If you are reading this, chances are you love tokidoki! Rejoice because the World’s FIRST tokidoki cafe is slated to open tomorrow, on 29 March 2018, at Kumoya cafe! You might even get a chance to get up close and personal with Simone Legno, the co-founder and Chief Creative Officer of tokidoki as he will be flying into Singapore specially to officiate the opening launch day of Kumoya X tokidoki pop-up cafe!

I have been a fan of tokidoki in recent years, thanks to fellow mummy friends who introduced me to the tokidoki X Ju-Ju-Be diaper bag collections! To date, I own a variety of bags from collections like Space Place, Animalini, Donutella Sweet Shop, Kaiju City, Unikiki V2, Tokipops, etc! Oops I digress. #sorrynotsorry

My kaki Modgam knows that I loveeee tokidoki, so she very kindly extended her invitation to misterchewy and I to join her in previewing this pop-up adventure. We were instantly blown away as we entered the cafe because it totally screams TOKIDOKI! The entire place is so wild, fun and quirky!

Looking at all the colorful characters makes one feel younger already!

If you don’t already know, the theme at Kumoya changes every three months. Thus, the interior, decorations and menu, etc, change along with the themes.

I also like that Kumoya provides plenty of plush toys which makes the place more fun and inviting. The toys are also great as photos props!

The menu is very straightforward and clearly categorized into Snacks, Mains, Desserts, and Beverages.

Beverages make up the bulk of the menu, with a total of 11 different choices, one of them being the Sassy Strawberry Nojito ($12.90). Sweet and sour, the perfect combo. Strawberry fruit mix is combined with wild mint syrup, soda water and fresh lime. Served with a straw holder of your favorite characters, fresh strawberry and mint leaves. This is one of the selected beverages that comes with free tokidoki limited-edition coasters, while stocks last.

Kaki had the Donutella Sweet Treat Caramel Popcorn Frappe ($17.90) which she really really liked because it’s super sweet lol. It’s a frappe Donutella would approve! A blend of popcorn syrup, milk and popcorn. Topped with fresh whipped cream, caramel sauce and caramel popcorn.

If you don’t exactly have a sweet tooth, Donutella’s First Love! Strawberry Cheese Frappe ($17.90) is the drink for you! Drink you favorite cheesecake! A frappe made up of cheesecake syrup and blended with strawberry fruit mix and milk. Garnished with red rosebuds, fresh whipped cream and a sprinkle of little rainbow bits! I love it because it’s not cloyingly sweet and was actually quite light and easy to drink! One more also no problem!

A32A5764

Go for the Unicorno Cotton Candy ($17.90) if you want something Instagram-worthy! The bluish purple cotton candy is so pretty that everyone went “WHOA!”. What’s unique, sweet and “rainbowy”? Unicorno’s Rainbow Cotton Candy! Sitting atop passion fruit and strawberry Calpis with butterfly pea tea.

A32A5728

Onion rings and fries are the usual suspects for snacks and we chose the Golden Sweet Potato Fries ($10.90). Taste the natural sweetness of the sweet potato battered with a subtle blend of spices. Balanced nicely with a sprinkle of house-blend sweet sour plum. It’s addictive!

A32A5738

We tried a few of the mains which were all really good. Honestly, I wasn’t expecting much from a character-themed cafe but we were pleasantly surprised by the quality of food served which is definitely value-for-money!

Donutella & Sweet Friends Japanese Curry Rice ($25.90). Donutella doesn’t go anywhere without her friends.

The selection of desserts is also very exciting and boy, were we spoilt for choice. Being a hardcore Donutella fan, I just had to pick the Donutella’s Delightful Chocolate Cake with Dark Chocolate Sauce ($18.90)! Discover what makes Donutella delightful. Tuck into a stacked berries cake, fresh berries, heart-shaped konnyaku jelly, pretty flower chocolate, dark chocolate cookies crumble and drizzled with dark chocolate sauce. The berries cake tasted light, moist and fluffy, and went very well with the cookies crumble.

A32A5788

SANDy is kaki’s favorite tokidoki character, so she insisted we order SANDy’s Desert Garden ($17.90)! Welcome to Cactus Land! Hokkaido berries soft serve, cookies and cream brulee, chocolate rocks and flower, buttery SANDy cactus cookies and fresh cream.

Donutella and Dolce make such a perfect pair in the Dolce Pretty-in-Pink Berries Sponge Cake ($18.90)! As delicious as it is pretty! This strawberry sponge cake is accompanied by wafer sticks, fresh cream, marshmallow hearts and rounded off with fluffy cotton candy.

If waffles and ice cream are your thing, then Adios and Ciao Ciao’s Farewell Fantasy Charcoal Waffles ($22.90) will not disappoint. Before you say good-bye, have a Hokkaido berries soft serve and special buttery charcoal waffles, lovely Ciao Ciao heart cookies, fresh berries, strawberry chocolate coated cereal crunch, fresh cream and dark chocolate sauce. I must say that the charcoal waffles were crispy and pretty good!
