From a single ice cream cart to a beloved community icon — here's how Gilbert Ice Cream was born.
Over the last 26 years, that passion has grown into a New England tradition. Gilbert Ice Cream became a beloved fixture in the community because we don't just roll up and pass out treats—we bring genuine warmth, energy, and smiles. Word spread fast across the region because Gilbert and his team treat every single guest like family.
Today, Gilbert Ice Cream is the premier mobile dessert experience for weddings, corporate gatherings, birthdays, and major festivals. From Boston to every corner of New England, we've spent more than two decades serving up sweet memories, and we're just getting started.
Our mission goes beyond ice cream — it's about creating genuine joy and lasting memories.
We believe that a great treat has the power to bring people together. Every classic and premium novelty we serve is selected to spark genuine childhood happiness and nostalgia, because life's too short not to enjoy the sweet moments.
We're more than just a truck—we're your neighbors. For over 25 years, we've been giving back to local schools, supporting community fundraisers, and bringing the ultimate party atmosphere to neighborhoods all across Boston and New England.
We are committed to delivering a seamless, high-energy event experience. Because our premium menu features perfectly prepacked novelties, we guarantee lightning-fast service with zero mess—ensuring every single guest gets a smile and a sweet treat without waiting in long lines.
Every great brand has a story. Here's ours — year by year.
