Abu Dhabi Claims a Cool Guinness World Record

05 Jul, 2021

Abu Dhabi Culinary, an arm of the Department of Culture and Tourism – Abu Dhabi (DCT Abu Dhabi), has served up a major scoop for the region by setting a new Guinness World Record for the most varieties of ice cream on display at one time!

Part of Abu Dhabi Culinary’s destination-wide Summer of Ice Cream promotion and Abu Dhabi’s seasonal Abu Dhabi Shopping and Dining Season campaign, the record-breaking event – with 1,001 flavours available in one place for the first time ever - took place at the Ice Cream Lab pop-up at Yas Mall on Friday, 2 July as a result of a delicious collaboration with the UK’s Pan-n-Ice, the pioneers of ice cream rolls.

The new world record event took ice-cream lovers on a gastronomic journey through unique creations including coffee and cookie dough, bubble gum and pistachio, mint Oreo and meringue, matcha and passion fruit, as well as cherry and popping candy. Dairy fans keen to sample the unlikely matches can tuck in for AED 35/40 until 21 July at The Ice Cream Lab, Yas Mall.

To ensure safe experiences for all, Abu Dhabi Shopping and Dining Season and Summer of Ice Cream promotions are being held under strict health and safety protocols in line with Government of Abu Dhabi directives.
