Was visiting our Idaho family from California and went up to Idaho City for some hiking. This ice cream shop is adorable and delicious. Loved their Salted Caramel! Super fun vibe, very friendly staff. The whole town is great. I highly recommend stopping here.

Cute little place to stop for ice cream on a warm day. I ordered the single chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream, my husband the huckleberry in a waffle cone, and our daughter the strawberry shortcake in a bowl. All of it was yummy. I know cause I tried them all.

★★★★★ 5.0 Rob Shelton · Jul 2023

The best ice cream shop in Boise County with the best family ownership team in town. Their love for our community is as awesome as the gourmet ice cream they offer.

★★★★★ 5.0 Lindsay Bird · Oct 2022

A delicious find while exploring Idaho City. A smaller selection (~16 flavors/ incl sorbet, yogurt and regular ice cream). Only complaint was that two flavors our group wanted weren’t able to be scooped because they were too cold/hard and flavor cards weren’t always posted.

★★★★☆ 4.0 Frances “Fry” Sutton · Jul 2021

The service was good and the ice cream was cold. I think they're missing out on making money! Not that's what it's all about but I was prepared to drop some coin and there wasn't anything to buy! No gifts. Some dime candy but wish there were more to choose from. Hope next time we come in there are some more options to choose from.
