Shuga x Ice
Ice Cream in Silver Spring
Shuga x Ice is a unique, African-inspired ice cream company, brought to life by the passion and vision of its founder, Ndidiamaka Agu. After experiencing a turning point in her life, Ndidi decided to make her dream of creating an ice cream business a reality. Our ice cream is a celebration of the rich, diverse flavors of Africa, bringing a unique dessert experience to the Solaire Social Food Hall.
Shuga x Ice stands apart from other ice cream companies with its mission to evoke the essence of Africa through every scoop. Our flavors are meticulously crafted to transport customers’ taste buds to different countries across the African continent, offering a culinary adventure that’s both nostalgic and refreshing.
We are more than a business; we are a platform fostering connections. Our African-inspired ice cream serves as a conversation starter, promoting emotional intimacy within households. By offering unique African flavors, we connect those distanced from their roots with their heritage. In the future, we plan to donate a portion of our profits to organizations that support education and entrepreneurship in African communities.
In a world that is constantly evolving, we understand the importance of preserving and celebrating our roots. Shuga x Ice serves as a bridge, using the universal love of ice cream to connect past and future generations, making the richness of African cultures accessible and enjoyable for all.
We invite you to join us on this delicious journey as we bring the taste of Africa to the Solaire Social Food Hall.
Ice Cream
Founded in 2021, Shuga x Ice is changing up desserts. You see, vanilla, strawberry, and chocolate ice cream might be popular. But, we all know, there’s nothing like the bold, rich, and diverse flavors of African desserts.
Yep, we’re serving up African-inspired ice cream and your favorite frozen desserts and flavors directly to your table.
We’re talking about desserts that don’t just hit the sweet spot but send you straight back to your childhood. To a time that was much simpler and where all that mattered was playing out on the street until the sun went down. In fact, our desserts are just like Mama used to make.
