The ultimate Father's Day 2025 gift guide

There’s always a good reason for cake – and Father’s Day is one of them. If your dad has a sweet tooth, treat him to something special from Nesuto. The bakery’s tiramisu ($98) is a standout, featuring soft mascarpone mousse layered with Kahlúa- and Marsala-soaked ladyfingers. Another crowd favourite is the Japanese Goma ($55), known for its indulgent sesame cream. Plus, the cake has just been upgraded with a new sesame and genmai crumble. If you’re unsure of which cake to get, Nesuto has made it easy with a Father’s Day quiz to help you pick the perfect bake for Dad.

Upgrade Dad’s wardrobe this Father’s Day with stylish pieces from local label Beyond The Vines – because he deserves more than just another tee from that brand starting with a ‘U’ and rhymes with ‘flow’. Beyond The Vines has an array of elevated basics, like the Boxy Zipper Polo Tee ($89) crafted from textured knit and finished with a subtle embroidered logo. To complete the look, gift him the practical yet sleek Crunch Carryall (from $89). It’s water-resistant and spacious enough to haul everything he needs.

If Dad enjoys a good drink, surprise him with a bottle of single malt whisky from local craft brand Brass Lion Distillery. The brand launched Singapore’s first-ever whisky ($328) that’s been distilled, barrelled, and aged entirely on local soil. It’s full-bodied with smooth notes of creamy vanilla and dried apricot – great for a wind-down sip. If gin is more his style, Brass Lion’s signature Singapore dry gin ($98) is a fresh and floral option.

Dads who can’t start the day without a cup of coffee will have lots of fun at The Sundowner’s coffee roasting workshop ($95). Curated for coffee lovers and casual enthusiasts, this live coffee roasting experience will allow participants to see live coffee plants growing on the farm; select and roast raw coffee beans over fire; try grinding coffee beans by hand; and experiment with different brewing techniques. The insightful session will wrap up with brunch, where participants will be treated to freshly made bagels and coffee.
