About a year ago, Thai Coconut Ice Creams were quite the fad in Singapore, with a few dedicated kiosks and pasar malam bazaar stalls opening up.
These Thai Coconut Ice Cream are popular among Singaporeans at Bangkok’s JJ Chatuchak Weekend Market – scooped in coconut husks, toppings of corn and peanuts, with juicy slices of fresh coconut flesh adding some superfood element.
But other food trends and instagrammable foods from ice cream rolls, rainbow-anything and specialty soft serves have caught up.
Is Thai Coconut Ice Creams still IN? (The other known ones around are Pong Gelato, Wimi, Waan Waan, Qoolco).
So imagine my slight surprise when I saw a NEW Koko Thai Coconut Ice Cream opening up at (the non-air-conditioned) Star Vista of all places.
Koko was started by 3 friends who had their first dessert stall at Amoy Street Food Centre.
Previously, I had a price friendly single scoop 3 toppings at $3.50 at their Causeway Point branch (which closed It think).
Prices have increased. Guess it is the rental.
A single scoop with 2 toppings in half a coconut shell, plus a small cup of coconut juice at $3.90. Double scoops go for $4.90.
Available only the Star Vista outlet, a Kokolicious premium version is sold. It contains coconut flesh strips within, and is richer in coconut flavour.
Good stuff though – creamy, not too sweet, and indeed had some fruity strips for that added bite.
Thankfully, the coconut flesh has already been scraped out, included below the ice cream, making eating a much easier affair.
Would I have it again? Not entirely sure. Must prefer to have this somewhere seated down.
