Heladería Inma, a landmark in Málaga, has reopened its doors on Moreti Street, marking the beginning of ice cream season and attracting a crowd of enthusiasts with its traditional flavors and three new additions.

Every spring, the reopening of Heladería Inma on Moreti Street becomes a highly anticipated event for artisanal ice cream lovers in Málaga. This establishment, which closes its doors during the winter months, resumes activity with the arrival of warmer weather, generating long queues and great anticipation in the Las Delicias neighborhood.
With over five decades of history, the ice cream shop first opened its doors in 1972 in the Carretera de Cádiz district. Over the years, it has established itself as a cornerstone of Málaga's informal gastronomy, known simply as 'la Inma,' a name that reflects the familiarity and deep roots it has achieved among the city's residents.
The ice cream shop's seasonal business model, closing in mid-October and reopening in March, contributes to the annual anticipation. Queues and a ticketing system are a common sight on its busiest days, with an efficient service that manages the large volume of customers thanks to its coordinated team.
Among its most popular flavors, Kinder stands out, having become an emblem of the establishment and its most requested product. Despite not having a strong digital presence on social media, the ice cream shop maintains its leading position in the city, demonstrating that quality and tradition can prevail in today's gastronomic landscape.
For this season, Heladería Inma has introduced three new offerings: 'Sésamo Mix,' 'Cremino de Avellana,' and 'Tropicana.' These additions aim to refresh the menu without losing the artisanal essence that characterizes the establishment, providing options ranging from creamy to spicy.
