Durban-based confectioner Sugarlicious is taking local markets by storm with its macaron ice-cream sandwiches made in a kaleidoscope of colours.

Trained patisserie chef Zakeeya Mitha, began offering delicious French macarons at local Durban markets in 2013. After being inspired by a picture of an ice cream macaron online, Zakeeya began experimenting with the sweet treat and launched her first range of ice cream macarons in May last year.
The confections are available in a wide range of flavours including mint, espresso or Nutella (a crowd pleaser) or smoked mocha, Bombay crush and bubble gum. Sugarlicious also serves a French kisses range, dipped in Belgian chocolate. Flavours in this range include Ferrero Rocher® and Raffaello.

While Sugarlicious doesn’t have a permanent store as yet, it does set up shop at markets around KZN and is even taking its sweet treats to the Coffee & Chocolate Expo on 24 and 25 September at The Green Point Cricket Club in Cape Town. The business also takes orders in both Durban and Johannesburg and even offers Halaal versions.
Follow Sugarlicious on Instagram for updates on what Zakeeya is up to and where you can find her popping up.

This is the second editorial I’ve seen on Sugarlicious and Zakeeya – I’ve tried to contact her via FB and left a cell message – no luck. Guessing easier to get a private audience with the Pope than Ice cream sandwich macaron – anytime soon.
Not going back.The product is too expensive and the service is very bad. It does not match the hype being created. Have had better. They need to treat customers with more respect as the product is already made. It does not take much to prepare. Just pass it over the counter and pay. We are your customers
That’s sad to hear, ice cream should always be a happy experience! Please do write them a review – they’ll appreciate constructive feedback: https://www.eatout.co.za/venue/sugarlicious/ As a bonus, we donate a meal to Rise Against Hunger for every review written 🙂
Absolutely delicious. Where can I purchase these in Johannesburg. Apparently you have stalls at Saturday Markets. Are there any in Johannesburg this weekend.
Looking forward to more delicious flavors.
All the best for more outlets.
