Titus Low downgrades OnlyCreamery gelato cafe to smaller shop after steep ‘5-figure loss’

Titus Low’s claim to fame is as Singapore’s most popular OnlyFans creator. But past his raunchy career, it seems that the hunk has been making headlines for everything other than his buff bod (remember his very public spat with ex-wife Cheryl Chin?). Most recently, he has shut down his one-year-old gelato and waffles cafe, OnlyCreamery, which opened to great fanfare on Temple Street in Chinatown. Less than two months after its closure on 27 May, OnlyCreamery – now rebranded to OC Cafe – has resurfaced at a smaller, less fancy unit in Toa Payoh. The 24-year-old dad-of-one speaks to 8days.sg.

OnlyCreamery opened in Chinatown in September 2022 to much media buzz. The cafe specialised in gelato and pandan mochi waffles, offering a total of 18 gelato flavours made in partnership with local cafe Hundred Acre Creamery.
He tells us that he shut down his Chinatown shop due to high rental costs, which cost him and his three business partners around $10K each month at the time. In total, the OF creator incurred a “high five-figure loss” from the venture: “[We] mostly made losses through renovations, as well as the move-in delay period where we still had to pay rent,” he shares. 
Since then, Titus has downgraded from his previous 64-seater eatery to a smaller 40-seat one. 
In contrast, the new Toa Payoh unit, which Titus co-owns with two new biz partners, is notably more cramped and no-frills. Rather than the hip, swankier vibe of the Chinatown shop, the new cafe takes on more of a homey heartland concept, with simple laminated wooden floors and recycled furniture from the old shop.
Why Toa Payoh? Titus says: “We find that the central crowd can be unpredictable, particularly on weekends. We’re considering adding a bakery element here that offers fresh daily bakes, and believe it would be better suited to residential areas”. 
Compared to the Chinatown stall, the Toa Payoh outlet’s rental is also around 40 percent cheaper. The towkay says he plans to sell some items for cheaper, though it’d be hard to reduce the price of every single item on the menu. “The pricing will be lower, but despite our desire to reward our fans, the cost of goods and manpower remains the same or may even increase due to inflation,” he explains. 
While we must admit that OnlyCreamery has quite a witty ring to it – a clear nod to OnlyFans – the towkay has scrapped his previous brand name, now only going by OC Cafe (which stands for OnlyCreamery Cafe). “We rebranded as we are looking to be more of a cafe and explore other options, not just ice cream,” Titus explains. 
Currently, OC Cafe is selling 18 flavours of gelato – including previous faves like Strawberry Cheesecake, Dark Chocolate Sorbet and Rocher – though some popular flavours, like Honey Chrysanthemum are no longer available. The prices of their gelato remain the same, starting at $5 for a single scoop. 
New bakes at OC Cafe
We can’t wrap up a Titus Low story without dishing some deets about his private life. Besides running OC Cafe and maintaining his OnlyFans account, the influencer previously said he wanted to become a real estate agent. Though he had failed his first two Real Estate Salesperson Examinations, he tells 8days.sg that he isn’t giving up yet. “I’m still trying to pass,” he laughs. 
His co-parenting sitch with ex-wife, Malaysian influencer Cheryl Chin, has also gotten better since his public spat with her in February: “It has been better after we engaged our lawyers to find an amicable solution for the both of us,” Titus shares.
Has his 17-month-old daughter, Elleria, visited OC Cafe yet? He laughs: “Not yet, but I’m planning to bring her over for some ice cream soon”. 
OC Cafe is at #01-75 79E Toa Payoh Central, S315079. Open daily 12pm – 11pm. More info via Facebook and Instagram.
