What is an ice kacang live station?
An ice kacang live station is a freshly operated traditional dessert station where a dedicated FunCo operator shaves ice and assembles classic ice kacang with standard toppings on-site throughout your event — served directly to guests in bowls or cups.
What is ice kacang?
Ice kacang — also known as ais kacang or ABC (Air Batu Campur) — is Singapore's most iconic cold dessert. Finely shaved ice is mounded in a bowl, drenched in rose syrup, attap chee syrup, and evaporated milk, then topped with red beans, attap seeds, grass jelly, sweet corn, and cendol. It has been a beloved fixture of Singapore hawker centres and pasar malams for generations.
What toppings are included?
Standard toppings include red beans, attap seeds, grass jelly, sweet corn, and cendol. Syrups include rose syrup, attap chee syrup, and evaporated milk — all applied as standard to every serving.
Can guests customise their toppings?
The standard ice kacang is assembled with the full classic topping set. Guests who prefer specific toppings omitted can request adjustments — the operator will accommodate where possible.
Is ice kacang halal?
Halal-friendly ingredients are available on request. Let us know your dietary requirements at the point of booking and we'll confirm halal-certified options for your event.
What allergens are present?
The standard ice kacang contains dairy (evaporated milk). Individual toppings may contain other allergens — confirm specific dietary requirements at the point of booking and we'll advise accordingly.
Does the live station require power?
Yes — a single standard 13A power socket is required to power the commercial ice shaver.
Is ice kacang suitable for outdoor events?
Yes — ice kacang is one of the most practical live dessert stations for outdoor events in Singapore's heat. The dessert is genuinely cooling and refreshing. We recommend sheltered placement to prevent the ice from melting too quickly in direct sun.
How many guests can the station serve?
Output depends on assembly speed and portion size. We advise on quantity planning at the point of booking based on your expected guest count and event duration. For very large events (300+ pax), we can discuss additional equipment arrangements.
How does ice kacang compare to the ice cream cart?
Ice kacang is a full assembled dessert bowl — shaved ice with syrups and multiple toppings. It's larger, more cooling, and carries stronger hawker heritage positioning. The ice cream cart offers scooped or sliced ice cream in a more compact format with no power required. Many clients run both at the same event for a complete Singapore dessert zone.
Is ice kacang suitable for Chinese New Year events?
Yes — attap seeds, red beans, and cendol are traditional Southeast Asian ingredients that resonate well at CNY and other festive gatherings. Ice kacang is a broadly appropriate dessert for multicultural festive events throughout the year.
How far in advance should I book?
Book at least 7 working days in advance. Peak seasons — National Day, school carnivals, Hari Raya, and year-end D&Ds — fill up quickly. Two to three weeks earlier is safer.
How long can I rent the live station for?
We offer flexible rental durations — hourly packages and full-day event setups are both available. Contact us with your event timeline for a tailored quote.
Can I brand the live station with my company logo?
Station signage options are available as an add-on. Contact us at booking to discuss branding options for your event.
Do you deliver across Singapore?
Yes, FunCo delivers islandwide across Singapore including Sentosa, Tuas, Changi, and Jurong Island. Delivery charges may vary depending on your venue and time slot.
Do you price match with other vendors?
Yes. FunCo offers price matching across our event rental services. Share a quote from another Singapore vendor and we'll match it where possible.
