Sweet Alchemy Ice Creamery

Sweet Alchemy Ice Creamery We are Seattle’s only ice cream shop that is also a registered WSDA creamery. Unlike most of Seattle’s ice cream shops that outsource their base.
(239)

We start with the simplest ingredients–––organic cream, organic egg yolks, organic milk, and organi For our neighbors, students and families, Sweet Alchemy is a specialty ice cream and cake shop that is passionate about great flavors and good ingredients. We will be the only ice cream shop in King County certified as a creamery. We took this extra combersome step so that we can have full control o

f what to put in, and what not to put in to our ice cream. We will be making everything from scratch from as much fresh produce and dairy as we can. We promise to search for the best ingredients, local first and organic second. I'm not promising we will be perfect, but I can promise we will try our best in the product we serve as well as the service we provide so that we deliver lasting relationships and inspire happiness with every creation.
