What is an Icecream Cake Jar?
An Icecream Cake Jar is a whole dessert built inside a jar instead of on a plate. Layers of cake and cream go in, the lid goes on, and it goes into the freezer. You take the lid off and eat it with a spoon.
The six flavours
There are six now, and they all cost the same, so pick on taste and not on price.
| Flavour | What is in it | Price |
|---|---|---|
| Epic Choco | Chocolate cake under chocolate cream, with a fudge line down the centre. The richest one we make. | 7,500 RWF |
| Berrylicious | Berry cream over soft cake. Sweet, and much easier going than the chocolate jars. | 7,500 RWF |
| Coffee Caramel | Cake layers with coffee cream and caramel. Real coffee goes into it, so read the section under this table before you order one at night. | 7,500 RWF |
| Coco Pine | Creamy coconut icecream, sweet pineapple compote, moist cake layers. The tropical one. | 7,500 RWF |
| Nutella Crave | Hazelnut and chocolate, from Nutella, running through the cream with cake between. If that jar already lives in your kitchen, take this one. | 7,500 RWF |
| Oreo Cheesecake | Cheesecake layers with a seam of Oreo crumb through the centre. Closer to biscuit than to sponge. | 7,500 RWF |
Allergens. All six contain dairy and wheat, and Nutella Crave contains hazelnut. None of the six contain egg. Tell us on WhatsApp if anyone eating has an allergy and we will say straight whether a flavour is safe for them.
If you want it decided for you: want it rich, take Epic Choco. Find chocolate too heavy, take Berrylicious. Not in a chocolate mood at all, take Coco Pine. You already know if you are a Nutella person. Buying for a group, mix them, because the price is flat and a mixed order needs no arithmetic.
Ask us which flavours are ready before you set your heart on one. Ordering is on the Icecream Cake Jar page, and the rest of the chiller is in Parfaits and Dessert Jars.
Coffee Caramel, and the coffee effect
This one is doing a different job from the other five, so it gets its own paragraph.
Picture the middle of the afternoon. You want a coffee, and about a minute later you want something sweet next to the coffee. That is two orders and two prices, which is why the 4pm break costs more than people expect. Coffee Caramel folds the two into one jar. Anyone who orders affogato, or tiramisu at the end of a meal, already knows the category, and this is that idea frozen and sealed with a lid on it.
Real coffee goes into it, which means it carries caffeine the way a coffee dessert does. We have not had it lab tested, so there is no milligram number here and we will not make one up. The sensible way to think about it is as a cup rather than a cake. Fine in the afternoon. If caffeine keeps you up, do not eat it late at night and then blame the jar.
Rwanda grows some of the best coffee in the world. Making a coffee dessert here rather than a chocolate one felt obvious.
The pairing is worth knowing too. Put any of the other five beside a black coffee and the jar starts tasting sweeter against it. This one holds its ground and goes deeper.

Why the jar format works in Kigali
- It survives the trip. A sealed jar goes in a bag on a moto and comes out looking the same. Iced cake on a plate does not.
- It keeps. Put it in the freezer and it waits for you.
- It gifts well. You hand someone a sealed jar and you are done. No plate to collect back later.
- It stacks. Jars for an office go out on a tray, which is how most bulk orders leave here.
How to store and eat an Icecream Cake Jar
Keep it frozen or in the fridge with the lid on until you want it. Straight out of the freezer it is firm, so give it a few minutes to soften, then eat it with a spoon. Carrying it across town in the heat? Say so when you order and we will pack it for the journey.
