If you love Magnum Ice Cream Bars like I do, customizing one with your favorite toppings at a Magnum Café would be the perfect weekend sundae treat.
It’s the to-die-for-luxury ice cream bar I’ll treat myself to whenever I pump petrol late at night after a long day.
My perfect pick-me-up indulgence. Nothing beats eating ice cream and chocolates past midnight.
In my younger years, it was from the ice cream man with his peddle cart and the delicious, ‘ting-a-ling, ting-a-ling’ that we prick our ears for.
A quick grab of coins or pulling and tugging at our mothers will get us our favorites to chill on a hot afternoon.
In those days, not every household has a refrigerator.
Any ice cream, icicles, or ice potong was good for us kids.
History of Magnum Ice Cream @ Magnum Cafe
Magnum was developed in Belgium at the Ola laboratory (Baasrode) in cooperation with the Belgian chocolate producer Callebaut and released in Germany in January 1989.
The original Magnum (later rebranded as Magnum Classic) consisted of a thick bar of vanilla ice cream on a stick with a chocolate coating.
The company also started selling Magnum ice cream cones in 1994 and an ice cream sandwich in 2002.
The first Magnum Café opened in Mid Valley, KL, in 2015, and social media was all hyped about the decadent, velvety, smooth ice cream bars covered in rich Belgian Chocolate.

How to Customise Your Magnum Ice Cream @ Magnum Cafe
Customizing your own Magnum ice cream was a dizzying exercise in restraint.
Finally, choose the white or dark drizzle to determine your ice cream’s final look.
What to choose? How to choose?
You’re the boss of your ice cream; it’s your personalized ice cream, so the decision is still yours.
That got a long queue of people wanting their very own customized ice cream and an even longer wait in the selection process.
First, choose the type of Chocolate to dip the Magnum in.
Then, choose from the long list of toppings, which included almonds, goji berries, pistachios, dark chocolate pearls, white chocolate crunch pearls, dried mango, and freeze-dried raspberries.
