Cookies and Cream: Filled with chunks and crumbs of chopped sandwich cookies

Salted Caramel (Dairy Only): Flavored with homemade dark-cooked caramel and a heavy pinch of salt

Sugar Cone Crunch: Stuffed with homemade, dark chocolate-covered sugar cone pieces

If you’ll be storing the cake in your freezer after receiving it, put it in a refrigerator for 10–15 minutes before serving to let it soften gradually and evenly. Vegan ice cream needs a bit longer to soften than dairy.

If you’re going to eat your cake right after receiving it, there’s no need to soften it in the fridge or a cooler. It should be ready to slice and eat!

Slice the cake with a heavy chef’s knife or large serrated knife. Bear in mind that our ice cream cake is very rich and dense—you may want to cut smaller slices than you would of another type of cake. 

Arrange to get your cake on the day that you will eat it or up to a week before. This will ensure the very best appearance and flavor when you serve it.

If you have any cake left after serving, put it back in the cake box (or wrap it in plastic wrap) and store it in the freezer. The cake should keep well for 7–10 days at 0º F.

We make our ice cream and decorate our cakes at Lincoln Cafe and Market in the North Center neighborhood. We sell only limited packaged items in the market; for custom ice cream cakes, we only take orders online or by phone.

Pickup orders can be placed for one of three pickup spots: our home base at Lincoln Cafe and Market (3720 N. Lincoln Ave.), L&M Fine Foods (4363 N. Lincoln Ave.), and Plant Chicago (4459 S. Marshfield Ave.). The pickup days and times vary by location; all options are shown at checkout. Within 24 hours of your selected pickup time you’ll receive an email from us with pickup instructions for your selected location.

Yes! We deliver within a 12-mile radius of The Hatchery (135 N. Kedzie Ave., Chicago). We use the service Metrobi to find drivers who will bring our ice cream directly to our customers. They use heavy-duty ice packs and hard-sided coolers to ensure that the ice cream arrives intact.

The fee is $15–$30, depending on the distance. Deliveries can be scheduled Tuesday through Friday during the window 4–7 PM. Metrobi will send text or email notifications as your order approaches.

If you’re looking for delivery outside our regular area, or if you need your ice cream to be delivered at a specific time, contact us—we may be able to do it for an additional fee.

We certainly do! Our unique, handmade ice cream cakes create a deluxe experience for your event attendees, while our extraordinary service provides a convenient experience for you. Download our catering menu or email our customer relations manager to learn more.

Different companies make different kinds of ice cream cake. Here’s what we do: Our cakes are made from two layers of ice cream (different flavors or the same), two layers of a crumbled baked good in the middle and on the bottom, whipped cream, coconut cream, or vegan buttercream frosting, and classic ice cream sundae toppings as decoration.
