Blue Spruce Ice Cream

Remember this one? It’s the season for blackberries and corn! We’ve got a few pints and a limited amount available by the scoop!

Once I harvest more corn from my garden we will make it again!

These two silly beans are off the university! They e both been the heart and soul of this shop and so much fun to be around. If you’ve been in for a scoop chances are you been greeted by their happy faces!

We wish them well in their next adventures but will also miss them desperately because they’ve been doing all our social media this past summer 😂

Good luck in your future, please don’t mind my texts asking how to make videos

Anyone else’s garden going off and you don’t know what to do with everything? Us too! Luckily we have an ice cream shop 🤗

Introducing our vegan basil lime, orange chocolate zucchini bread and parsley orange.

We know someone you may have a very strong reaction to parsley ice cream but we only made a small batch and we won’t make another one until the garden grows some more again. We think you should try it while we’ve got it 🌿

We’re open until 6pm today. We may not answer the phone, but we’re here!

If you haven't made it to Blue Spruce Ice Cream yet this summer, we need to talk 🍦

Tucked into The Courtyard at 526 Cliffe Avenue, Blue Spruce is not your average scoop shop. This is small-batch, handcrafted, made-from-scratch ice cream. Owner Kirsten Wood has built something truly special here: a shop rooted in the flavours, ingredients, and spirit of the Comox Valley, where creativity leads and nothing is ordinary.

We're talking west coast-inspired flavour combinations you won't find anywhere else (think Spruce Tip, Lavender, fresh seasonal fruit, foraged ingredients, and rotating creations that change with what's growing and available locally). And if dairy isn't your thing, Blue Spruce has you covered with a rotating selection of plant-based options that are every bit as inventive as the rest.

Oh, and the ice cream sandwiches? Non-negotiable. They’re delicious 🍪

This summer, make Blue Spruce part of your Downtown Courtenay routine, whether you're wandering The Courtyard, finishing up a day of shopping, or just in need of something sweet on a warm afternoon.

Ok folks, this s’mores one is so tasty. I had to sneak by mid day to get a little cone of it along with chocolate, which was tricky business to eat while riding my bike but we make it work in the name of ice cream.

It’s so tasty in fact that I’m going to make three times as many hand made marshmallows and I’m going to toast them up before smooshing them into our next batch of it.

We’ve got so many of our most requested flavours out, so come on by to try them out!

We were so excited to make these that we forgot to take videos/pics!

To celebrate Indigenous People’s Day we made a salmonberry, evergreen huckleberry, and a salal ice cream. We wanted to shy away from bannock and instead focus on actual indigenous ingredients.

They will be out Saturday, only by the cone/cup (due to their limited amount) and around until they run out. Thanks for helping us celebrate this day, as an indigenous owned business we are so happy to have days like this where everyone can acknowledge the important contributions of indigenous peoples and join in on the fun.

Proceeds from cone sales on saturday will go to Kwumut Lelum
