If you’re seeking something offbeat on or leading up to Valentine’s Day, you might find the upcoming Nova Sundae Club interesting. “The idea around this event is that titles don’t matter, vibes do. Participants will get to make their own gelato at counters. In the process, they will also get to connect with different people,” explains Mitisha Mavani, an organiser of the event.

Attendees can create their own gelato sundae, pick their flavours of choice, and use a variety of signature toppings. “You don’t need to come as a pair, you can bring anyone you wish, be it a friend, a sibling, a cousin, or even your mother; make the gelato as a sweet treat for yourself or to give to someone,” the organiser tells us.

A newly added activity for Valentine’s Day is a counter where an expert will guide participants on how to design a custom charm bracelet with four charms. “You can craft necklaces, waist chains, and keychains, amongst other items, to take home or use as a thoughtful, handmade present,” Mavani reveals.

“There are no rules, no pressure; we don’t want to make it very technique-intensive, hence it’s a free-flowing activity.” Additionally, patrons seeking a floral treat can access a counter and the guidance of a flower-making artist, to make crochet flower bouquets, which are a long-lasting gift.
