Malai Menu

A cardamom "whipped cream" base with rich, decadent streams of hot fudge, and a cherry rose ripple folded in throughout. Tastes like a birthday!

Our rendition takes this classic flavor to new heights – fennel seeds add unexpected notes of licorice that beautifully complement the sweetness of butterscotch. For that signature crunch, we've swapped candies with buttery toasted pecans!

Inspired by an Indian shortbread called nankhatai. A nutty, caramelized crumb topping is folded into rich cardamom ice cream. Decadent with bursts of spice and pops of pistachio that adds just enough crunch.

Carrots sautéed in ghee, and with a touch of cardamom. If you've ever had the carrot halwa dessert, you'll know exactly what to expect with this ice cream.

A dairy-free rich chocolate sorbet swirled with a cardamom spiced coconut fudge. We love the chewy and creamy texture that the coconut burfi adds to this vegan frozen delight.

This flavor hits all the notes: sweetness from the coconut, smokiness from the tahini and earthiness from the dates - it's a flavor fit for everyone!

A robust coffee flavor, with granules for some texture, paired with cardamom. Just like the drink in ice cream form.

Here we take the milky creaminess of Sweet Milk, and add the best "sprinkles" that we know: candied fennel seeds! Each bite will be a contrast of the sweetness of fresh dairy and the minty woodsiness of a pop of fennel seed. We created this flavor to celebrate the one year anniversary of our store, but we kept it around to keep the party going!

Tart, sweet and lightly spiced. The date's rich caramel sweetness is balanced by the tang of the tamarind and rounded out with subtle spice notes of fragrant cinnamon, clove and a hint of cayenne pepper.

Ghughra, little pockets of pastry filled with a nutty, milky and cardamom spiced mixture, is the ultimate Diwali treat.

Floral and fruity with a hint of tartness - the chaat masala is a blend of spices that adds a nice savory umami to this unique sorbet.

We couldn't think of a more iconic Indian sweet than kaju katli so we had to bring it to our Diwali flavor lineup. Our version is a cashew ice cream swirled with a cashew fudge ripple and topped with a piece of housemade kaju katli (topped with its signature silver foil!)

The flavor combines the simplicity of sweet milk with a fruity, tangy and sweet mango and puree. It's almost an ice cream and sorbet in one!

A little sweet, and a little spicy. You will get hints of ginger, cinnamon, and black pepper in this flavor inspired by the classic tea.

Our ice cream is spiked with nutmeg, cardamom and a touch of black pepper. And since milk pairs with every kind of cookie, we threw in our perfect chocolate chip (secretly made with star anise) and our chocolate chili cookies. The end result: Malai Milk & Cookies!

Citrusy with an herbal, slightly licorice note from the fennel, this pairing is familiar, yet surprising, and just happens to be Pooja's favorite.

Peda, a milk fudge, faintly spiced with cardamom and topped with pistachios, is a favorite at Malai. To round out the Malai Diwali lineup, we fortify our sweet milk ice cream with toasted milk powder and cardamom and then fold in roasted pistachios.

Fall seasonal. The unexpected pumpkin spice: a pumpkin ice cream with the sweet and savory spices of garam masala, with a smoky black cardamom graham cracker folded throughout.

A slightly smoky lentil ice cream with pieces of toasted ghee-topped roti pieces folded in throughout. A Diwali staple!

Ras malai is a mainstay on dessert tables - and now, in your freezer as a limited-edition Diwali treat! To make our Ras Malai ice cream, we fold paneer into saffron spiced ice cream to bring you this classic dessert but in frozen form.

Using Andhra Pradesh's heirloom chilies, this is a rich chocolate ice cream, with a kick. The heat of the chili will make you want to go back in for another bite!

Our most popular! Sweet, floral and spiced - there is nothing that this ice cream doesn't hit. It's unlike anything you've had before, in the best possible way!

This is big, bold cinnamon flavor with the earthy, smokiness of black salt in a comforting caramel swirl. Familiar but unique, this limited edition flavor uses the beautiful spices from Burlap & Barrel.

Saffron ice cream base with a pistachio, white chocolate, cardamom swirl.

A bit of sea salt to take away the sweet edge of vanilla; this flavor is a satisfying twist on the classic.

Rich saffron-spiced ice cream with toasty, caramelized bread pieces with just a hint of cardamom studded throughout.

The beauty of this spice is enough to draw you in, but the subtle flavor of mild licorice will keep you coming back for more.

Think: condensed milk in ice cream form. Sweet simplicty.

A nutty and fully spiced ice cream flavored with fennel seeds, almonds, cardamom, saffron and black pepper! This is perfect for the spring, but delicious all year round.

Fall seasonal. The flavor of this warm, inviting spice, against the milky creaminess of the base will make you feel cozy in the colder months (and will be a delicious addition to any pie)!
