Our Story
Hi! We’re Jim and Meghan, a husband and wife team who loves ice cream.
We came up with Dipsy in 2017, around the time we had our first child. After attending several weddings, we noticed there was a lack of good ice cream desserts and customized treat options, so we sketched out our first cart and dreamed of seeing our own ice cream bars all over Instagram.
We catered our first event in July 2017, and we’ve never looked back. Since then, we’ve added a second ice cream cart to our fleet, launched a pre-dipped delivery service for events, and in 2022, opened our Elmhurst ice cream kitchen for private ice cream-making parties and classes. Most recently, we opened our walk-in ice cream shop in Elmhurst, so anyone can stop by for a scoop, a milkshake, or a hand-dipped cone, no event required.
We truly are living the ice cream dream.
Handmade, From Local Ingredients
Every bar, scoop, and shake starts the same way: made by hand, by us, in Elmhurst.
We make all of our ice cream flavors ourselves at our Elmhurst location rather than buying it pre-made, and we source our dairy locally from a farm in Sandwich, IL. That means when you get a Dipsy ice cream bar, whether it’s dipped to order at your wedding, delivered in a cooler for your office party, or scooped at the shop, it started as real cream from a real local farm, not a distributor.
We also build our menu with options in mind: our core flavors are nut-free, and we offer dairy-free, vegan, and gluten-free options across our flavors, dips, and toppings, so more of your guests (or more of you) can actually enjoy it.
