The modern update of the ice cream sandwich is much more appetizing than the rectangle of bland vanilla ice cream between chocolate wafers we remember as kids. These days there are creative and artisanal sandwiches popping up all over Vancouver. This is where you’ll find the coolest ice cream sandwiches around town.
The ice cream sandwich is a summer-only treat at this award-winning, contemporary chocolate and pastry shop. The sandwiches are available in fun flavour combinations, but the mint chocolate chip is always a hit. If it doesn’t fill you up, try their to-die-for cream puffs as a side dessert.
This little business is already becoming legendary for their homemade ice cream. The only way to improve it would be to sandwich the creamy confection between two macarons for the best dessert in Mount Pleasant. While you’re there, get a take-home pint, packaged in returnable and reusable glass jars.
Meat & Bread have mastered the art of the sandwich, so it makes perfect sense that they would include a dessert version on their menu. This is not just any sandwich, though — we’re talking a maple bacon ice cream sandwich. That’s right. Maple. Bacon. Ice cream. Sandwich. For real. You’re very welcome.
Enjoy a seasonal dessert at this little bakery that’s famous for their sweet confections. As would be expected, you’ll find baked-goods-inspired flavoured ice cream, like Apple Pie Crumble. You can satisfy your sweet tooth with ice cream by the scoop or on top of pie, but why do that when you can get it in the form of a sandwich?
