OUR STORY
It was a crystal clear day, the sun was shining, the ocean was calm and Moffat beach was deserted. We were sitting watching the surf with a good mate, dreaming up ideas for something that would put the cherry on top of this glorious moment we were sharing. For some unknown reason Ice Cream was what we were all craving. Well, Moffs didn’t have an Ice Cream shop, and at this current moment in time even if it did, most of the local food outlets had shut their doors to help stop the spread of “The Lurgy”. Once this idea had been conceived we were like a dog with a bone, the ideas kept pumping, the brand came to life, and a year or so later Sugar Mama’s opened its doors!
Kat & Timmy - Founders of Sugar Mama’s both met right here in this little hub of Moffs. Timmy was born and raised in England, travelled the world with his passion for all things surf and found himself a special spot here on the Sunshine Coast. Kat is from Brisbane - also spent quite a few years overseas travelling but made her way to Moffat Beach because of her extended family and their history here. Timmy being a Landscaper & Kat having years of working in the Hospitality Industry - put their creative minds to work and came up with the idea of Sugar Mama’s and knew this is where it needed to be.
Ice Cream, Milkshakes, Coffee, Waffles & Sundae’s - We started with such a simple plan….to keep things cool and creamy!
It needed to be fun for all ages, vibrant and loud, which to this day it still is. With thanks to this beautiful community we are a part of we made it through a tough beginning, which has helped give us the opportunity to see our idea come to life, grow and evolve.
As our Shack grew with popularity we soon realised that we were missing something….we went BREAKFAST…we went SAVOURY, we nailed COFFEE and then all of a sudden we went from being an Ice Cream Shack to the Sunshine Coast’s most POPULAR Waffle Shack.
Sweet & Savoury Waffles - we created something that no one else is doing. We opened a kitchen, we hired chef’s, and now what Sugar Mama’s has to offer is one of the best foodie experiences yet. Cafe by morning - Ice Cream Shop by afternoon, the happiest & most colourful little shack right here in the most beautiful place.
Now 3 years on, Sugar Mama’s has turned into something so wholesome that we love more and more everyday. We are open daily from 6:30am with great music, comfy seating, ocean views, the BEST smelling food & absolute legend staff :) WAFFLES WAFFLES & WAFFLES! Seasonal Menus are designed by our AMAZING chefs and made from all local ingredients. We have a gelato cabinet that displays 18 flavours daily - all made locally in Maleny. Sugar Mama’s comes from the biggest of hearts and we will keep doing what we do to give you all an experience that you will always hold closely.
We hope you feel the love, because we love giving it!
