Swirl Smashed and Rolled Ice Cream is Johannesburg's favourite destination for freshly made, handcrafted rolled ice cream.
With two retail locations, Melrose Arch and Prison Break Market in Glenferness, you're never far from the best ice cream experience in the city.
Whether you're visiting Melrose Arch for a meal out or exploring the weekend vibes at Prison Break Market, our friendly team is ready to roll your perfect ice cream right in front of you.
Made to order, every single time.
What makes Swirl ice CREAM different
Swirl Smashed & Rolled Ice Cream isn't your average ice cream shop.
Every serving is made fresh on the spot! You choose your base and your mix-ins, and our team smashes it all together on a frozen plate and rolls it into perfect creamy curls right before your eyes. It's part dessert, part show. A creamy ice cream and an experience you won't soon forget.
Our ice cream base is one of the most natural you'll find anywhere.
With 95% real dairy content and absolutely no eggs, artificial flavourants, colourants, preservatives or powders, what you taste is pure, honest ice cream the way it should be.
Rich, creamy, smooth, and made from fresh milk and cream.
Thousands of flavour combinations
With tens of thousands of possible flavour combinations, no two visits have to be the same.
Mix and match from South Africa's favourite chocolates, biscuits, sweets, spreads and fresh fruits. All smashed into your creamy vanilla base and rolled just for you.
Popular favourites include Oreo and Nutella, Kit Kat and Sprinkles, Peppermint Crisp and
Salted Caramel, Biscoff and Banana, Fresh Strawberry and Mango and thousands more!
Dairy-free vegan and sugar free options are also available.
Can't decide? Our team will happily guide you to your perfect combination and try rolling your own!
