Saturday Farmers’ Market Vendor Feature: Salt Lick Ice Cream
I scream, you scream, we all scream for ice-cream!
This week, we will be sharing a bit about Salt Lick Ice Cream founded by Ingrid Severson in March 2015 right here in Vancouver. She makes small batch artisanal ice-cream, using local seasonal ingredients (her bourbon peach featured right now uses BC peaches and Vancouver Island sea salt). Can ice cream get any better than this? She will be returning to the market this week, so be sure to drop by, sample some of her incredible flavours and grab yourself a half-pint to enjoy while you stroll the market or a full pint to take home for the weekend!
What inspired you to start making ice-cream as a business?
I’m a chef so I was inspired by seasonal flavours. Bought a small home machine and started churning!
Where is your ice-cream made and how do you source your ingredients?
I make my ice-cream at Commissary Connect and source local seasonal ingredients whenever possible.
If you could describe your business in three words, what would they be?
Sweet tooth, Seasonal, Savoury

What makes Salt Lick Ice-cream different from other ice-creams available in Vancouver?
My flavours have a twist, leaning towards savoury ingredients

My favourite flavour I make is gjetost (Norwegian goat cheese)
