Our story

Our scoops came from love.

From one apartment to a community of ice cream lovers.

How Yococo started

Yococo started in 2016 in Sine Ndlela's apartment. The first taste testers were strangers from the building elevator who were brave enough to try the early scoops. From there, Yococo grew into a fun-loving dairy-free ice cream brand with a mission to serve love through scoops.

Why dairy-free

Because everyone deserves a scoop. Dairy-free doesn't mean joy-free — it means more people can share the same moment, together, without compromise.

Why coconut milk

Coconut milk gives Yococo its signature creamy body without any dairy. It carries flavour beautifully, holds well in the freezer, and tastes like sunshine.

Why brown sugar

Brown sugar brings a rounder, warmer sweetness with a hint of caramel. It's the small choice that makes a big difference in every scoop.

Why colour and flavour matter

Ice cream is a moment. We want that moment to feel bright — from the tub in your hand to the story on your spoon.

Why community matters

Yococo started with strangers in an elevator. It's still built by the people who show up, try new flavours, tag us in photos, and bring their friends. You're part of the story.
