Elevate Your Dessert Experience with the new Macaron Ice Cream Selection
KUALA LUMPUR, 5 JULY 2024 – The love story began in the spring of 2023 when Häagen-Dazs partnered up with Pierre Hermé Paris, the ‘Picasso of Pastry’ to launch their first ever macaron ice creams that reimagined the iconic French dessert. For Part Deux in 2024, they are back with two new summery flavours to double down on their extraordinary collaboration. These exclusive creations can be savoured only at Häagen-Dazs cafes.
Since launching the collection with world-renowned pastry chef Pierre Hermé, the Häagen-Dazs macaron ice creams have been a resounding success globally. Crunchy chewy mini macaron shells are added to the creamy ice cream, bringing the perfect balance of the dreamy taste of Häagen-Dazs with the Pierre Hermé Paris macaron’s signature almond flavour.
To bring more excitement to dessert lovers everywhere, two new flavours are hitting shelves in the spring-summer of 2024. The favourite limited edition flavour Yuzu & Lemon will be making a limited-time return due to its rousing consumer response and an exquisite new flavour Vanilla & Blueberry will be added to further elevate the collection.
The newest flavour addition Vanilla & Blueberry brings the perfect combination of Häagen-Dazs signature vanilla ice cream and a burst of fresh blueberries and juicy blackcurrants, with mini macaron shells that add that extra crunch and chew for an ultimate ice cream experience.
Whilst the Yuzu & Lemon flavour offers a tangy delight, with delicious citrus swirls of tongue-tingling zesty lemon ice cream and a lemon & yuzu curd sauce, teaming together to create delicious spoonfuls, also with mini macaron shells that perfectly balance the ice cream with the almond flavour of the macarons.
The flavours add to the existing range, which includes the now sought after Double Chocolate Ganache and Strawberry & Raspberry. They are built on the same principles of combining the best of both worlds: ice cream + macarons, bringing you ‘Paris in a pint’.
In addition to these irresistible new flavours, Häagen-Dazs is excited to introduce exclusive limited edition creations for parfait lovers. These parfaits are perfectly layered with a variety of delightful ingredients, providing an exquisite treat that elevates the art of dessert-making.
Introducing the Macaron & Mixed Berries Parfait, a delightful treat that combines Macaron Vanilla & Blueberry ice cream, layered with macaron shells, whipped cream, red fruit coulis, and pieces of real strawberries and blueberries. This parfait harmonises a blend of creamy, crunchy, and fruity elements, appealing to dessert enthusiasts seeking a refined treat.
Equally enticing is the Macaron & Strawberry Parfait featuring Macaron Strawberries & Raspberry ice cream layered with crunchy macaron shells, strawberry coulis, whipped cream, and an array of delectable toppings. This parfait promises a perfect indulgence with its rich flavours and textures.
Complementing these parfaits are the Strawberry and Chocolate Macaron Ice Cream Cakes. These decadent cakes combine luscious Häagen-Dazs ice cream with delicate macaron shells for a luxurious dessert experience. The Strawberry Macaron Ice Cream Cake boasts layers of strawberry ice cream and macaron shells, while the Chocolate Macaron Ice Cream Cake indulges with rich chocolate flavours complemented by the delightful crunch of macarons.
“Our debut flavour collection was a massive success and we are excited to bring more delicious flavours to the world as we continue to craft a new era of indulgence with our collaboration. Häagen-Dazs and Pierre Hermé share the same commitment to high quality and taste, we both have a deep passion for re-interpreting classic favourites and being relentlessly innovative to create extraordinary experiences for our consumers,” said Manuel Garabato, Häagen-Dazs Brand Development Director.
The products will be available in all 13 Häagen-Dazs Malaysia cafes from now with bespoke creation menus.

KUALA LUMPUR, 4 July 2024 – Shopee, the leading e-commerce platform in Southeast Asia & Taiwan, is at the forefront of providing inclusive Muslimah fashion options for Malaysian women. Shopee’s Gaya Lagi Lit Inclusive Fashion Study revealed that a staggering 93% of respondents prioritise finding Muslimah and inclusive clothing options on the platform. This isn’t just a preference – nearly all respondents (98%) expressed confidence in Shopee meeting their needs for this specific style. These findings solidify Shopee’s position as the go-to destination for Muslimah fashion that caters to a wide range of styles and body types.
Nearly three-quarters (74%) of respondents identified inclusive clothing that accommodates age, size, and body type as their top priority. Additionally, 16% seek modest clothing suitable for all activities, highlighting the need for versatile pieces that fit seamlessly into their lifestyles. The remaining 10% expressed interest in sustainable materials and clothing designed for special needs, showcasing a well-rounded understanding of the evolving Muslimah fashion landscape.
“At Shopee, we recognize the deep desire among Malaysian women for Muslimah fashion that reflects their unique styles and empowers them to express themselves confidently. Our Gaya Lagi Lit Inclusive Fashion Study underscores this need, with 99% of our respondents emphasising the importance of finding options for diverse body sizes and styles. We’re committed to empowering users with wider clothing ranges that celebrate all body types,” commented Ming Kit Tan, Head of Marketing and Business Intelligence at Shopee Malaysia.
The survey also revealed a strong sense of community and support for local Malaysian Muslimah fashion businesses. A remarkable 97% of respondents consider it very important to support local SMEs such as Ariana Exclusive, Desince, Garden Store, Hany Shop, Indah Pesona, Le’Fonse, Marvelry, Muslimin and Muslimah, and Syifa Exclusive, that prioritise inclusivity and diversity in their designs. This not only empowers local businesses but also strengthens the Malaysian fashion scene and economy.
Shopee’s commitment to empowering Malaysian women through fashion extends beyond its core platform offerings. The recent launch of the 7.7 #ShopeeHaul Gaya Lagi Lit collection further exemplifies this dedication. This curated capsule wardrobe caters to a variety of styles and personalities, allowing women to express themselves confidently and dress for any occasion.
The collection features three distinct styles:
Warna Lit Lit: The look for a bold and daring woman with a unique sense of style. It features statement pieces and encourages creative colour combinations to showcase individuality.

Girl Boss: This embodies the spirit of the modern Malaysian woman – strong, independent, and driven. It features stylish and comfortable pieces perfect for work or everyday wear.
Malaysian women also turn to Shopee Live when looking for outfit inspiration and styling tips. A significant 86% of respondents consistently engage with Muslimah and inclusive fashion sellers and content creators on Shopee Live, discovering new ways to style their favourite garments and express their unique personalities.
Shopee’s study paints a clear picture: Malaysian women seek a diverse and inclusive Muslimah fashion landscape. Shopee is demonstrably leading the way in this regard, offering a platform that caters to a wide range of needs and styles, along with collections like #ShopeeHaul Gaya Lagi Lit that empowers women to embrace their individuality and confidence.
