ICE CREAM YOU SCREAM

As we can see on today's SNS , ice-cream is one of the trend, but what differentiates some of these ice-creams from the norm is not just their exceptional flavours but their ability to capture your attention with their unique “Instagrammable” aesthetic qualities.

With all those aesthetic and classic concepts, ice-cream has clearly become more than just a treat for a blistering hot day. From gelatos to soft serve ice-cream, this list uncovers some of the best ice-cream you can find right in the heart of Kuala Lumpur. 

   1. Sangkaya   
   
       

What do we talk about when we talk about coconut ice-cream? Definitely Sangkaya. It is the epitome of traditional coconut ice-cream with a modern twist served to you in a coconut husk bowl complete with coconut flesh. How much more tropical can it get?
The best part about Sangkaya is the added element of customization you get from choosing your own additional toppings from toasted coconuts to Nestum to peanuts. It is also dairy-free, egg-free and preservative-free. If you constantly crave that tropical escape, Sangkaya’s coconut ice-cream is a good reminder of that beach holiday in Thailand you once had.

    2. Whimsical Gelateria


   

Whimsical lives up to its name in delivering mad-scientist-ish concoctions that you only wish you thought of and one of them is their famous Nasi Lemak gelato. I know, how do you transform a hearty and spicy meal into a delectable sweet treat? Well, the geniuses behind Cielo Dolci have done it and done it well. There are also alcoholic gelato options like Sangria and Bailey’s.
Whimsical is one of those places that gives you a sense of wonder through their food - a wonderful, quirky experience but definitely nothing short of delicious. You should definitely give their bacon gelato and basil gelato and salad a shot.

   3. Softsrve


   

 
One of the latest addition to the local ice-cream scene, Softsrve has quickly gained a reputation for being one of the best soft serve ice-creams you can find in KL and I'm not surprised. Other than classic chocolate, Softsrve also uses cereal milk as their soft serve base which gives their ice-cream a wonderful dimension and complexity that truly puts them a level above their contenders. Truly the cream of the crop!
From cotton candy sprinkled with Himalayan seasalt to warm churros in cold ice-cream, Softsrve offers a great blend of simple but genius flavour combinations. What makes the experience even better? Liquid nitrogen. No, not your gimicky Heston Blumenthal sort. A separate cup filled with liquid nitrogen is placed below your ice-cream to keep it cool for a longer period of time! Functionality with a theatrical quality at its best! 
Price: RM8 - RM12

Damansara Utama: 31, Jalan SS21/1A, Damansara Utama, 47400, Petaling Jaya, Selangor, 47400 Kuala Lumpur
