House of Ice-Cream, owned by husband-and-wife, Roderick Tyler and Aminda Sovuth, have figured out how to make desserts anything but ordinary. Combining their homemade and vintage-inspired ice creams (made with simple ingredients) and an endless variety of classic snacks that taste deliciously nostalgic (think Nilla Wafers, Cinnamon Toast Crunch Cereal, Circus Animal Crackers, Chips Ahoy Cookies, and Reeses’s Peanut Butter Cups), they have created an impressive menu of explosive sweet treats. We’re especially excited about their Strawberry Gansito Sundae, a delicious combination of Neapolitan ice-cream with Gansito, which is best described as a Mexican Twinkie, consisting of light and fluffy vanilla cake and strawberry cream filling, before it’s coated in chocolate. It wouldn’t be a sundae without whipped cream, and in this case, strawberry sauce! Pop in to order one up, along with any of their other ice creams, shakes, and cakes. Or arrange to have House of Ice Cream cater your next event.
