What we make

Six ways to put Frostback on the table.

Everything starts with a date and a rough idea. Tell us which of these sounds like your celebration and we will write the plan — and the quote — from there.

Cakes

Custom ice cream cakes

Layered ice cream cakes built in the shop and finished to order. Choose your flavors, size and finish, and we will plan the whole thing with you before we start scooping.

Best for birthdays

Dessert bars

Wedding dessert bars

A styled table of small scoops, pints and toppings for your reception, planned around your menu, your colors and your venue.

Best for weddings

Catering

Party catering

Scoop service for showers, reunions and office afternoons, with a flavor list chosen for the crowd you are feeding.

Best for big groups

Flights

Ice cream flights

Four small scoops on a paddle, so guests can taste across the case before committing to a whole pint.

Best for tastings

Pints

Seasonal small-batch pints

Limited runs spun in the shop through the year, packed cold and ready for the freezer shelf at home.

Scoop truck

Scoop truck rentals

The freezer case rolls up to your block, parking lot or park pavilion and serves for a few hours — no fuss on your side.

Best for block parties

Celebrations

The dessert bar, the catering — or the whole truck.

Weddings, birthdays, showers, block parties. Give us the date and the room, and we will build the dessert plan around it: a custom cake as the centerpiece, a bar we plan for your guests, or the freezer case parked outside.
