Unikai Soft Scoop mango ice cream in a 4 litre square tub, a golden scooping ice cream for buffets, dessert counters, sundaes and mango shakes.
The square tub has a white body and a lid printed in sunny yellow, with the red-and-blue UNIKAI oval, Soft Scoop in looping blue letters, two round scoops of golden ice cream and a mango cut into a hedgehog of cubes. Mango is written in English and Arabic, and the panel gives 4 litre with a Dubai address for Unikai Foods. Being soft scoop, it typically comes out of the freezer ready to portion. As general background, the mango originated between the northeastern Indian subcontinent and Myanmar, has been grown in South and Southeast Asia since ancient times, and is the national fruit of India, Pakistan and the Philippines. That heritage is why mango ice cream sells so well across Gulf dessert menus. Commonly, kitchens scoop it into cups and cones, pair it with fresh mango cubes, sticky rice or warm gulab jamun, blend it with milk and cardamom for a mango shake, layer it with sponge and cream in dessert bowls, and serve it beside falooda. At hotel buffets it often sits next to vanilla and chocolate in the ice well. Keep the lid shut between portions and wipe the rim so ice crystals do not form.
