"Kickin' It" SC Style! Our New St. Louis City Ice Cream

Celebrate Soccer with a New Flavor!

Kickin’ It is made with White Chocolate Ice Cream and a City SC “inspired” Red Raspberry Swirl. We believe a Kickin’ It scoop, shake, malt, or sundae is the perfect way to kick off a new era in St. Louis city sports!

We’re excited about St. Louis City SC

St. Louis City SC is kicking off the season this Saturday, February 25th at 7:30 pm, against Austin. Then next Saturday, March 4th, is the inaugural HOME GAME that kicks off Major League Soccer in St. Louis.

With Serendipity Homemade Ice Cream located in the City of St. Louis, make stopping by before or after the game a new tradition for you (and your family and friends). We love seeing your smiling faces!

Mini Mardi Gras Ice Cream Sandwiches + King Cake Shakes

Mini Mardi Gras Ice Cream Sandwiches

Mardi Gras Mini Ice Cream Sandwiches are on sale NOW at Serendipity Homemade Ice Cream! Only 2 for $4. Fresh baked sugar cookies with purple, green, and yellow sprinkles encase various ice cream flavors.

King Cake Ice Cream, Sundaes & Shakes

Mardi Gras is next Tuesday, February 21st, and our King Cake Ice Cream will have you saying, “Laissez les bon temps rouler!” Pop in for our cake ice cream with cinnamon & pecans.

Then, take it to the next level with a King Cake Sundae or Shake. We are happy to make you a regular shake, but we like to make ours a “Spirited Shake” with a shot of bourbon or rum.

Stop by on Saturday (after the Grand Parade) or come by anytime leading up to Mardi Gras and Ash Wednesday! We’d love to see your smiling face at Serendipity Homemade Ice Cream.
