    Ice cream truck
    Sarah A.

    Wow. Sometimes less is more. I had this honey lavender ice cream and it was like a fluffy cloud. The flavor was very light and the ice cream was also light and creamy. All of this was true while still tasting so rich with flavor. I was so pleased with this flavor and will need to go back to try more for sure! The burnt brown sugar definitely caught my attention!

    Em's Ice Cream had their truck at the lavender festival, but I missed out on it, so I was so excited to see it at Jazz in the Park the next day! Ice cream is my favorite, so I was ready to try their flavors. I got a waffle cone with Coffee Toffee, and Honey Lavender. It was heaven! One of the great ice cream companies in Denver. I am looking forward to visiting their store location in Park Hill to get more of this goodness.

    How am I just now finding this place? Whenever I go by it looks closed, or not popular but somehow it's still there. The hours posted on Yelp confused me. But you have to check it out. Delicious flavors. Caramel and burnt brown sugar! So good. Here are summer 2022 hours. Enjoy :)

    My dog, excitedly waiting for his ice cream!

    Is the circus in town? Is it the Fourth of July? New Year's Eve?…read more Sure, they serve ice cream, and they have unique flavors, and the ice cream is delicious. But you can get really good ice cream almost anywhere. Heck, go to almost any grocery store and you can get Ben and Jerry's which still makes great ice cream with unique flavors. But how many ice cream shops have a zillion people either eating ice cream or standing in line or dancing to live music? None that I have seen before. This place is an absolute scene. By the way, the dancing was swing dancing, which isn't something you just decide to do (it takes a very long time to get good). Now, there are two lines. First, there is the interior line (inside the main fence) that is really, really long but you get more flavor options. The second exterior line is just really long (as opposed to really, really long) and is outside the gate with fewer flavor options. We went for the exterior line and it moved along nicely. Sure, you can get great ice cream almost anywhere but this place is a unique place. You can enjoy the live music and dancing while you wait in the longer than average lines. The atmosphere is pure joy. I would return again and again.

    Honestly, the ice cream here is more of a hype and a vibe than a great quality ice cream. There are…read moredecent amount of different flavors, and ways to consume the ice cream, but the ice cream itself texturally was really not that great and left a weird sticky film on my tongue. The color dye on the ube was also so intense it coated your lips and fingers in the deep purple. The vibe here is great, the aesthetic is cute, the neighborhood is fantastic... Come for the vibe, but not necessarily for the bestest ice cream you'll ever have.

    The banana pudding "nachos" just changed my life!…read more So lucky to have stumbled upon this place after hitting the natural history museum. Amazing service and amazing ice cream!

    I don't even know where to start because I am STILL thinking about this place days later. We…read morestumbled upon this little gem completely by accident while visiting the Natural History Museum, and honestly? Best accidental discovery of my entire trip to Denver. This tiny, adorable hole-in-the-wall shop is everything you want in a neighborhood ice cream spot -- warm, welcoming, unpretentious, and run by two of the most genuinely lovely women I've ever encountered in the food service industry. From the moment our group of six walked in, we felt like we'd been coming here for years. They were patient, enthusiastic, and clearly passionate about every single thing they make. Now let me talk about the ICE CREAM, because wow. Six people, multiple flavors between us, and not one single complaint -- which if you know my family, is basically a miracle. Everything was rich, creamy, and tasted completely homemade in the best possible way. But the thing that absolutely sent me over the edge? BANANA PUDDING. Multiple banana pudding options. I grew up in the South and I have been low-key grieving the lack of banana pudding culture everywhere else I've lived, and here it is -- in Denver, Colorado -- done absolutely right. I may have embarrassed myself slightly. No regrets. This is a Black woman-owned business and these two have built something truly special. It's family-friendly, it's joyful, and it has that rare quality of feeling like a place that was made with real love. If you're anywhere near the museum, you would be genuinely doing yourself a disservice to walk past this place. Go in. Get the banana pudding. Thank me later.​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​​
