About Sangkaya

Sangkaya has turned traditional coconut ice cream into a branded experience. Each serve comes in a halved coconut shell complete with fresh coconut flesh, and the ice cream itself is dairy-free, egg-free and preservative-free. The base coconut flavour is rich but clean, and optional toppings like glutinous rice, roasted peanuts, palm sugar and fresh fruit add layers. The presentation makes it one of the most photographed desserts in KL.

A standard coconut ice cream serve costs RM8 to RM10, with loaded versions reaching RM15. The halal certification and dairy-free formulation make Sangkaya accessible to visitors with dietary restrictions. Outlets are located in major malls including Pavilion KL, Mid Valley and 1 Utama. Sangkaya is the dessert to order if you want something traditional, refreshing and distinctly Malaysian.

The coconut ice cream served in a halved coconut shell is one of the most photogenic desserts in KL. The ice cream itself is dairy-free and preservative-free but still rich and creamy. Added glutinous rice and roasted peanuts on top. RM12 for the loaded version.

The base coconut flavour is clean and not overly sweet. The fresh coconut flesh you scrape from the shell adds a nice texture. Visited the Pavilion KL branch. Standard serve at RM8 to RM10, loaded versions up to RM15. Halal certified and dairy-free.

Sangkaya is the perfect dessert after a heavy Malaysian lunch. The palm sugar topping adds a caramel-like sweetness to the coconut base. Dairy-free, egg-free and preservative-free — great for visitors with dietary restrictions. Available at Pavilion, Mid Valley and 1 Utama.

Beyond the aesthetics, the ice cream is genuinely good — clean coconut flavour with a creamy texture. The fresh fruit topping option with mango was refreshing. RM15 for the loaded version. Traditional, refreshing and distinctly Malaysian.

The base serve at RM8 is great value. Located in major malls so it is easy to find. The glutinous rice topping adds substance and makes it almost a meal on its own. Open daily 10 am to 10 pm. Halal certified.
