White Rabbit Ice Cream is a small-batch ice cream parlour based in Edmonton that started with a simple goal in mind: to honour its curiosity and share its love for gourmet, small-batch ice cream with the community.
The shop has committed to some forever-flavours which stick around its menu year-round, like the classic vanilla or chocolate, its high-quality London Fog flavour, and the popular Ube Honeycomb, to name a few.
There are now multiple locations around the city (downtown, south side, and on Whyte Avenue), so there’s always going to be an ice cream waiting nearby.
