Soft Ice Shavings with a Refreshing Flavour Twist

After years of longing for the flavours that defined my childhood ice lollies, I discovered they were nowhere to be found. This ignited my quest to bring those cherished tastes back to life in an even more delightful way. In my quest, I came across shaved ice, which intrigued my interest as this was a new experience. In South Africa, the search for genuine shaved ice or snowcones often led to disappointment. The few examples I stumbled upon at distant farmers’ markets were more akin to crushed ice or slushies, lacking the delicate, snow-like texture I sought.

We aimed to introduce to the South African market a shaved ice that not only retained its flavours throughout the entire experience but also boasted that soft, snowy texture. Months of research and product development led us to create Icy Kapow syrups, which perfectly complement the snow-like ice. These syrups are crafted to bring back those beloved childhood flavours, combining the nostalgia of beach ice lollies with the joy of ice, to deliver sheer enjoyment with every bite.

And so Icy Kapow emerged, its name a vibrant shout out to the exhilarating tales of comic book heroes, encapsulating the essence of fun and enjoyment. Our primary goal is to make Icy Kapow synonymous with superior syrups and genuine shaved ice, offering a consistent, delightful experience across South Africa. Whether at malls, markets, restaurants or play parks, we’re dedicated to ensuring that every encounter with Icy Kapow brings a smile, catering to children of all ages and adults alike.
