Happy National Ice Cream Day 🍦

We hope you are having a great National Ice Cream Day 🎉

It is our great pleasure to announce that our both locations in Antigonish and Halifax now offer some delicious ice cream flavours year round.

In Halifax, we are excited to have partnered with a great Syrian-Canadian entrepreneur to bring more delicious treats to our boutique in Halifax. We now are proud to offer high-quality ice cream from Bozza Emessa in both chocolate and traditional pistachio flavour. 

Samer Aljokhadar, originally from Homs, Syria, began his first ice cream shop in 1999, by 2011 he was running three shops and spreading the joy of ice cream as quickly as he could make it. After immigrating to Canada due to the war in Syria, he is now gracing the Halifax area with his delicious Syrian ice cream, known in Arabic as "booza". Using whole milk from Fox Hill Cheese House in the Annapolis Valley region of Nova Scotia, Samer creates fresh, premium ice cream unlike anything we have tasted before. So we absolutely had to help share it with everyone, and just in time for summer!

Stop by our location at 1741 Lower Water Street.

Let's scoop up peace, love and happiness, one bite at a time!
