A scoop of sweet community spirit nestled in the heart of downtown Puyallup, also known as Lick Homemade Ice Cream. Opening its doors during the first weekend of April at 105 Second Street SW, what was once a humble barbershop has been transformed by Heidi Kinne into a haven for ice cream lovers. This new establishment isn’t just about serving dessert; it's about crafting memories and bringing joy to the local community with every spoonful.

Lick Homemade Ice Cream promises an array of delightful treats, cementing its place as a go-to spot for a diverse range of flavors and sweet concoctions. Emphasizing its commitment to quality and local flavor, Lick uses locally sourced ingredients to churn out both innovative and traditional ice cream selections like blueberry cheesecake, strawberry crunch, and mint chocolate chip. A single scoop is reasonably priced at $5.50, ensuring that indulgence is accessible. Beyond ice cream, the shop invites patrons to enjoy milkshakes, ice cream sandwiches, pup cups for the furry friends, and seasonal offers like Red Bull refreshers and floats, making it a sweet destination for everyone. The motivation behind Lick Homemade Ice Cream is deeply rooted in family and community. Heidi and her husband have been part of the Puyallup fabric for approximately 24 years and recognized a missing piece in their hometown's offerings – a dedicated scoop shop. Their vision for Lick extends beyond mere business; it's an endeavor to enrich the local marketplace and encourage the creation of fond, fun memories among families and friends. Their commitment reflects in every aspect of their operations, from ingredient selection to the warm, welcoming ambiance they strive to offer. Built on the foundation of love for Puyallup and a passion for sharing joy through desserts, Lick Homemade Ice Cream stands as a testament to community-driven enterprise. It serves not just as a place to enjoy a sweet treat, but as a gathering spot for locals and visitors alike, fostering connections and sweetening the everyday life of its patrons. For those eager to visit this charming addition to Puyallup's local business scene, Lick Homemade Ice Cream is conveniently located near the park next to the Rose Cafe, making it a perfect stop during a family day out or a casual stroll in downtown Puyallup. The shop's operation hours are designed to cater to a broad audience, with extended hours during the summer months to accommodate the extra scoop or two that come with the sunny weather. Despite its small size, the space inside Lick has been carefully curated to offer a cozy and inviting atmosphere where customers can savor their ice cream. The Kinne family invites everyone to create sweet memories at Lick, promising a unique blend of delicious flavors, friendly service, and a touch of community charm. It's more than just an ice cream shop; it's a place where every lick counts towards building a stronger, sweeter community in Puyallup.
