Scheduled to launch next month, the Lake Street Creamery ice cream truck will have a set of flavors on board that are already making our mouth water and our tastebuds intrigued: Donut, Pancake Breakfast, Holiday Chocolate, Aztec Sacrifice, Tahitian Vanilla Lemon Mint, Black Licorice, and Tears of the Yeti. These are the staple flavors Beth Colla and Tim Ferguson will be making on the truck, along with special flavors and ice cream floats. The duo describe themselves as "mobile gourmands" who plan on bringing to the streets of L.A. "the finest ice creams, gelatos, and sorbets, all handmade with love on the same Lake Street Creamery mobile ice cream parlour you buy from," adding "That's right. 'Parlour.' With a 'u.' We're fancy."
The truck was expected to be ready in time for this weekend's Jubilee in Silver Lake, but with a delayed inspection date, it looks like the "parlour" could be on the streets as early as June 3, and they say the truck is almost ready.

At LAist, we believe in journalism without censorship and the right of a free press to speak truth to those in power. Our hard-hitting watchdog reporting on local government, climate, and the ongoing housing and homelessness crisis is trustworthy, independent and freely accessible to everyone thanks to the support of readers like you.
But the game has changed: Congress voted to eliminate funding for public media across the country. Here at LAist that means a loss of $1.7 million in our budget every year. We want to assure you that despite growing threats to free press and free speech, LAist will remain a voice you know and trust. Speaking frankly, the amount of reader support we receive will help determine how strong of a newsroom we are going forward to cover the important news in our community.
We’re asking you to stand up for independent reporting that will not be silenced. With more individuals like you supporting this public service, we can continue to provide essential coverage for Southern Californians that you can’t find anywhere else. Become a monthly member today to help sustain this mission.
Thank you for your generous support and belief in the value of independent news.
