What made you get into the wedding industry?
We love making custom ice cream and making really unique options for various events. We were approached by a couple saying that there first date was in our store and wanted us at their wedding. After working through the motions, we were able to give them an unbelievable experience that made us realize we want to keep doing it!
What makes you differentiate from other vendors?
We offer such a unique service and product because the bride and groom get to create their own ice cream and flavours; so it’s not just pick from a list but lets make your personality an ice cream. We are also one of the very few in Ontario that make our own ice cream from scratch and use local ingredients, putting quality first. We also offer any of our ice cream vegan as well so everyone can enjoy it.
