Without a doubt, summer is the season to enjoy as much ice cream as you possibly can, and a new spot is opening its doors in Metro Vancouver.

After a year of waiting, Crema Ice Cream will be soft opening its first brick-and-mortar location in the Burnaby Heights neighbourhood.

“We’re still fine-tuning some last details, but we are ready to start scooping,” shared Crema online.

For those unfamiliar, Crema got its start as a food truck and is best known for its unique flavours inspired by co-owners Heidi and Joe’s Peruvian and Taiwanese roots. Think horchata, miso pecan, Thai iced tea, and lucuma brownie, to name a few.

Crema soft opens on July 11 from 2 to 9 p.m. and will operate from July 12 to 13 under the same hours. After that, the shop shared that it will update its customers on the following week’s hours online.
