Ice Cream

Ice Cream Shop in Lampasas, Texas

We scoop Blue Bell and Hershey's ice cream right in the middle of our art shop, and you never need a paintbrush to get some. Stop in for a cone on a hot Lampasas afternoon, or put the cherry on top of a pottery painting visit.

Blue Bell and Hershey's ice cream

We serve Blue Bell, the Texas classic so many of our neighbors grew up on, alongside Hershey's ice cream. Between the two brands there is always a familiar favorite and something new to try.

We have 24 flavors at a time and flavors rotate, so what is in the case today may be different next week. We should have the classics such as vanilla, chocolate, cookies and cream, chocolate chip cookie dough, strawberry, rocky road, green mint chip, praline pecan, cherry vanilla, etc. Cappuccino crunch, peanut butter cup, brown butter bourbon truffle, midnight caramel river, oatmeal cookie craving, orange blossom, and coconut are some other fan favorites. Cotton candy, blue monster, and rainbow sherbet are some popular flavors for our young customers and those that are young at heart. Our Square page has the current menu, and the chalkboard behind the counter offers some great order ideas.

Scoops, sundaes, milkshakes and floats

The waffle cones are worth mentioning twice. We press them here in the shop, so the whole place smells like them when they are fresh off the iron.

  • Scoops served in a cup or a waffle cone we make in house
  • Sundaes built with your choice of toppings
  • Thick, hand-spun milkshakes
  • Floats made with craft soda
  • No art project required — ice cream is always walk-in

Ice cream and pottery in the same stop

Plenty of families paint pottery first and celebrate with ice cream afterward, and plenty of people come in only for a cone. Both are completely welcome.

If you would like to do both, our paint-your-own pottery page explains how painting works and what it costs.

Allergy information

Our ice cream is scooped in a shared space using shared equipment, so we cannot guarantee that any item is free from milk, eggs, soy, wheat, peanuts, tree nuts or other allergens. Cross-contact is possible.
