MALAYSIA’S favourite homegrown ice cream brand, Inside Scoop, proudly returns with the second edition of its highly successful “Lokal Legends” collection, celebrating our 68th Merdeka with six bold, flavour-packed creations co-created with some of Malaysia’s most beloved homegrown brands.
Building on last year’s overwhelming response, the new collection transforms nostalgic favourites into creamy, handcrafted scoops that celebrate the nation’s vibrant culinary heritage.
Founded in Bangsar in 2013, Inside Scoop has, over the years, created over 200 inventive flavours, drawing inspiration from nostalgic snacks, drinks and desserts that unite Malaysians across generations.
This year’s Lokal Legends line-up features six new creations inspired by iconic local favourites:
Gardenia’s Twiggies Choc-A-Lot: A heartfelt tribute to the ultimate Malaysian childhood snack, this luscious milk chocolate ice cream is generously layered with bite-sized pieces of Gardenia Twiggies Choc-A-Lot;
GSC’s Caramel Popcorn: Inspired by the golden aroma of freshly popped popcorn wafting through Malaysian cinemas, this popcorn ice cream swirls salted caramel and buttered pecans throughout;
Julie’s Le-mond Lemon: Bright and zesty lemon ice cream meets the iconic tang of Julie’s Le-mond Lemon sandwich crackers and a ripple of citrusy curd;
Beryl’s Gula Melaka Chocolate: Where tradition meets indulgence—rich gula melaka chocolate ice cream crafted with our favourite homegrown chocolatier, layered with cracking chocolate and buttery crumble;
ZUS Coffee’s Spanish Latté: Inspired by the homegrown coffee shop’s signature drink, this espresso-based milk ice cream is infused with condensed milk for that unmistakable flavour. Layered with crunchy chocolate-coated cones, it’s a modern twist on a cherished Malaysian favourite; and
Farm Fresh’s Choco Malt Kaw: A bolder, more intense take on last year’s favourite—now extra kaw with fudgy chocolate swirls and crunchy choco malt soil and made with Farm Fresh Choco Malt.
“This year’s Lokal Legends is a love letter to Malaysia,” said Inside Scoop co-founder Edmund Tan.
“We’re proud to collaborate with brands that Malaysians have grown up with—from movie-night favourites to childhood snacks—and turn them into something uniquely ours. Every scoop is handcrafted here in Malaysia, a celebration of the creativity and community that define us.”
As part of the celebration, each single-scoop Lokal Legends ice cream will be served in a custom-designed cup sleeve featuring the collaborating brand’s colours and the proud “Lokal Legends” mark—the perfect keepsake of this Merdeka season.
Available individually or as a limited-edition Lokal Legends Party Pack (RM68), the collection brings together flavours that embody the heart of Malaysia’s food culture.
The Lokal Legends 2025 collection will be available at all Inside Scoop outlets nationwide from 18 Au to 21 Sept 2025.
