A New Artisanal Soft Serve Experience in Seseh, Bali

If you have been searching for an exceptional frozen dessert in Bali that delivers on flavor, texture, and uncompromising quality, your search ends here. Founded in January 2025, Sweetspot by Alchemy introduces the island's premier dairy-free soft-serve experience: a space where whole-food ingredients are the main characters, and preservatives, additives, and artificial flavors have no place.

Sweetspot is born from the culinary heritage of the Alchemy group, one of Bali’s most respected pioneers in whole-food cuisine and vibrant living. That legacy shapes everything we do: from the ethical sourcing of our ingredients to the way we reimagine what a modern dessert can be. At Alchemy, the belief has always been that food should be deeply nourishing and genuinely delicious. At Sweetspot, this exact philosophy is transformed into premium soft serve.

The Art of Artisanal Desserts

The most common misconception about dairy-free alternatives is that removing cream means compromising on texture. Sweetspot was created to prove otherwise. There is a specific moment that happens every time a guest takes their first bite at our shop: their eyes widen slightly, they pause, and then they ask the exact same question: “Wait, how is this dairy-free?”

Our signature soft serve is crafted from two distinct, meticulously developed bases: coconut cream and premium GMO-free soy. Both are chosen for their natural richness and unique ability to produce an incredibly smooth, velvety texture. By eliminating dairy derivatives, refined sugars, seed oils, artificial creamers, and stabilizers, we have designed a genuinely elevated, guilt-free dessert experience from the ground up.

“I’m incredibly particular about ingredients. At Sweetspot, we don’t make ice cream from powders, premixes, or artificial ingredients. We make it the slow way. From scratch. Whole food coconut cream. Fresh guava. Raw cacao. Steamed purple sweet potato. Mineral-rich Irish moss, nutrient-dense spirulina. Real ingredients you can trust, carefully chosen and crafted with intention,” says Shanti Allen, Co-Founder & Recipe Developer at Alchemy.

“Our commitment to clean ingredients and uncompromised quality means we never take shortcuts. If it doesn't come directly from nature, it doesn't enter our kitchen,” says the Alchemy Recipe Developer.


Another detail that sets us apart from conventional ice cream options is our commitment to daily production. Every single batch of soft serve is handcrafted fresh each morning in small quantities: nothing is pre-frozen weeks in advance or sits in storage. When you visit our location near Seseh Beach, you are enjoying soft serve at its absolute peak: made that day, using whole-food ingredients chosen exclusively for their premium quality.

This dedication to freshness is a matter of respect: respect for the raw ingredients, the artisanal process, and every guest holding the cup.

“Making soft serve from scratch every day changes everything. There’s something really special about starting fresh every morning. Every batch is handcrafted with care, and every day we continue learning, refining, and improving. That is the heart of Sweetspot. Just real ingredients, crafted clean, and made from scratch with a lot of love,” Shanti adds.

“Every day is a new adventure. The team is always improving the recipe and making sure we have the best and freshest house-made toppings available,” says Ana Clara Queiroz, Sweetspot Co-Founder and Alchemy Director.

Our Rotating Soft Serve Flavors

Our menu is a seasonal celebration of whole food ingredients, with many flavors deeply rooted in the rich culinary traditions of Southeast Asia. Every color is entirely real, and every flavor profile is derived directly from its natural source.

“Our rotating menu gives us space to be playful and creative with seasonal ingredients. We love working with flavors that surprise people. Durian is a perfect example. People either fall in love instantly… or run away,” says Shanti.

Ana Clara points out that for those who do choose to stay, the obsession is real: “When it is in season, our fresh durian soft serve is a revelation. Some people try it out of curiosity, and many get addicted.”
