 FAQs

  • Our catering pricing is based on the number of servings you need.
    Ice cream starts at $8 per guest with optional add-ons like churros, paletas, and premium toppings available.

    Because every event is a little different, final pricing may vary based on:

    • Guest count

    • Menu selection

    • Event location

    • Service time & add-ons

  • It starts with liquid nitrogen. We use this ultra-cold freezing method to make our ice cream fresh locking in flavor and creating an exceptionally smooth, creamy texture you won’t find just anywhere.

    Traditional ice cream is made in large batches and stored for long periods of time. Ours? It’s frozen in seconds. That rapid freeze means smaller ice crystals, denser, richer flavor, and a scoop that’s silky from first bite to last.

  • For most events 2 - 4 weeks is recommended. For weddings 6 - 8 months.

    *Dates book quicker Spring through Fall.

  • We are a live experiential dessert activation company, that also appears at select markets and private events.

    You can find us at La Mesa Farmers Market on Fridays & Hillcrest Farmers Market on Sundays, weekly pop-ups in Imperial Beach and special events throughout San Diego. We’re regulars at a few favorite spots like Snapdragon Stadium.
