South Africa is home to a number of excellent spots where one can enjoy a refreshing gelato or yummy ice cream.

Colaba Ice Cream & Dessert Studio, KwaZulu-Natal

Colaba Handcrafted Ice Cream was initially conceptualized in 2017 and is fueled by a passion for the gourmet world.

In January 2020, the establishment officially opened its doors and is the home of Super Premium Handcrafted Ice Cream. Colaba serves a number of decadent flavours including Baklava and Pavlova. The ice-cream spot only uses locally sourced ingredients and their products have no artificial flavours or colouring.

With everything from ice-cream to warm cookie options on the menu, it is the perfect place to get a sugar rush you’ll never forget. The ice cream is handmade, so you can expect a personalised touch with every scoop you purchase.
