Kid-Friendly Edmonton Ice Cream Shops You Have to Try This Summer | 2019

Bubble Cream // POP-UP

The heart of every Bubble Cream cone is a delicious egg waffle, also known as “eggettes” or “gai dan zai” (in Cantonese). According to urban hearsay, the bubble shaped waffle was born in Hong Kong in the 1950s, when a grocery store worker received a poorly packaged shipment of eggs. Instead of throwing the eggs away, the workers had an idea of creating a new and unique snack. The golden-yellow coloured waffle is baked with a crispy shell exterior and a fluffy egg base inside. Watch for pop-ups around the city!

The Ice Cream Shack // 11 Athabascan Ave

Good old fashioned ice cream has a comforting feeling about it on those hot winter days. Flavours that remind you of  your childhood and the ability to get a milkshake in any flavour of the ice cream from the shack are a couple of the things that set the Ice Cream Shack apart from the other ice cream venues in the city. 

Scoop n Roll // Three Locations

Try your ice cream rolled, made right before your eyes with fresh fruit flavours and mix-ins. You can choose from fresh cream for the base of the ice cream, and your favourite mix ins, to create a new flavour every single time. 

Kind Ice Cream // Opening Soon

A small batch ice cream shop offering delicious dairy and vegan scoops, pints and ice cream sandwiches. You can stay tuned to the kickstarter and get your hands on some sweet treats at the opening – stay tuned for the opening later this spring. 

Made by Marcus // Opening Soon 

Made by Marcus has lots of flavours to choose from! If your looking for cool flavours that no other places offer: Lemon Curd Blueberry was a fun funky flavour (

Yelo’d / 10150A 82 Ave

Yelo’d will be a place where you can experience Filipino and Asian inspired flavours in our soft serve ice creams and baked goods from cookies to cakes. We are literally going to be that “Mom and Pop shoppe”. The place you go to when you want something sweet, unique, and a cold treat on those cold winter days…and Hot summer days too! Your kids are going to love the unique flavours. 

The Italian Centre Shop // 10878 95 Street

One of our favourite things to do on a weekend afternoon is browse through the store, grab some gelato from Spinelli’s and head over to Giovani Caboto park across the street. It’s a delicious way to spend an afternoon or evening, and a bonus, one of the most affordable places to get gelato in Edmonton.

Yeh Frozen Yogurt // west edmonton mall

Have you been craving dole whip ever since you returned from vacation? Yeh! has multiple flavours of Dole Whip for you to get your hot little hands on and the best ice cream in Edmonton (if you count frozen yogurt). If you want a side of fun with your Dole Whip, you can always head into the waterpark, where there’s a Dole stand in there for you to get your fix (and by you, I mean, the kids).
 

Revolution Ice Cream 

Find it at a Farmer’s Market near you! At Revolution, they offer French frozen custard, as well as vegan and dairy-free options which make no compromises. No novelty. No tricks. Just delightful, frozen treats. Prepared by hand in small batches, they take a stand against unpronounceable ingredients, putting in the work to build texture without them.
