Nothing on this page was written by us. A week after an order lands we send one question, and whatever comes back goes up. Including the December a tub arrived soft.

Word of mouth

Four hands holding up pastel green, orange, pink and blue cones against a yellow wall

“I hid a tub of the sobolo behind the frozen tilapia and my sister found it in four days. I need a better hiding place.”

Afia Owusu

Labone

Two friends standing side by side, each holding a waffle cone in both hands

“The van reached my office at four on a Friday. Nobody in that building did any more work, and I am the one who ordered it.”

Kwabena Asare

Dansoman

A close crop of coloured sprinkles filling the whole frame

“Kelewele in ice cream sounded like a dare. Now it is the only one I order, and I have stopped apologising for it.”

Naa Adjeley Quartey

Teshie

Four loaded milkshakes in glass jars with striped paper straws, side by side

“I have been eating ice cream in Accra since 1984. This is the first one that tastes like somebody in Accra made it.”

Yaw Boateng

Ridge

Three empty waffle cones stacked into one pink paper wrap on a pale ground

“They opened in Adum and my Saturdays have been ruined in the nicest possible way. Two scoops, walk to the market, repeat.”

Everything else people said

Same question, shorter answers. The names and the neighbourhoods are real, and we have trimmed nothing except where somebody swore.

Order a tub, eat it in whatever ten minutes you can find, and in a week we will send you the one question. Or ring the Osu counter on 030 279 1140 and say it out loud.
