Review: Sweet Paradice Desserts, an ice cream parlour in Morningside

Sweet Paradice Desserts is a pink oasis of sugar on the outskirts of Morningside, with a devilishly tempting range of ice cream, waffles, milkshakes and cakes. One visit here will meet your calorie and Instagram bragging quota for the day and be worth it.
