Mizu’s Real Fruit Ice Cream trailer is often at Nanaimo’s Departure Bay Beach, but please confirm today’s location via Mizu’s Facebook Page or Instagram Account for daily locations and times!

For years, Jamie Lynn has been obsessed with owning her own ice cream trailer. Lucky for us, she made her dreams – and ours – come true! Catch her before she flies away to chase another dream – obtaining her pilots’s license!

Jamie and her husband Vinny, a heavy-duty mechanic by trade, built the ice cream trailer from scratch, then decorated it with images ofd beautiful berries. You can’t miss it at Departure Bay Beach in Nanaimo or at a host of special events. Look for the line up!

The Soft Serve – You Choose!

• Gluten-free, 100% Canadian, vanilla ice cream soft serve is made with premium ingredients by Island Farms.
• Gluten-free, vegan, vanilla soft serve is made with coconut oil and Nora’s Creamy Cashew Milk.
• Mizu dedicates a scooper, an auger and freezer for vegan, dairy-free soft serve.
• Choose your favourite fruit. Mizu is happy to offer combos or mixes!
• Enjoy your soft serve in a gluten-friendly cone, a gluten cone, or in a bowl!
• NEW! Pints of Mizu are now available for purchase! Enjoy strawberry, strawberry-banana, raspberry, blueberry, blackberry & mixed berry!

Coming soon! Special flavours like Hokey Pokey Toffee in a pint, special orders & pre-ordering.

The Cones!

• ‘Unique Cake (gluten) Waffle Cones’ and ‘Gluten-Friendly Waffle Cones’ are dairy-free, egg-free and ‘vegan-friendly.’
• Made in a facility in Metro Vancouver that has been making waffle cones since 1982.
• Gluten-friendly cones are made with documented to be gluten-free rice flour, arrowroot, soy lecithin, canola oil & cellulose.
• Shared equipment is blown off and thoroughly scrubbed between gluten and gluten-friendly production.
• Packaging is colour-coded to clearly identify gluten & gluten-friendly cones.

The Trailer!

• On the trailer, gluten-friendly cones are stored in a sealed, labelled bin, entirely separate from gluten cones.
• When you make your dietary needs known upon ordering, staff will wash their hands and put on clean gloves before handling the cone.
• Choose your fruit flavour, mixed with ice cream or vegan soft serve.

Why Mizu!

• Named after Jamie & Vinny’s beloved Belgian Malinois!
• Got a pup? Ask for Mizu’s ‘Pet-Friendly Dog Scoop’ made with a Sugar-Free Cake Cone, scoop of ice cream and a dog treat on top!
• 50% of Mizu’s ‘Pet-Friendly Dog Scoop’ sales are donated to Sooke’s Raincoast Dog Rescue.

What is the New Zealand connection?

• Mizu’s Little Gem Mixer has made New Zealand famous for its soft serve! Components are easy to remove and completely washable. What’s not to love!
