Mister Ice Cream Bar and Lee’s Donuts Collab
From June 11 to 12 Mister, Vancouver’s original artisan liquid-nitrogen churned ice cream shop (at 1835 West 1st Ave), will feature a limited-edition Chocolate Trio Ice Cream Donut ($8.50). Mister’s chocolate trio ice cream is mixed with Lee’s Donut Chocolate Cake for an exclusive flavour explosion, then served in a classic Lee’s Donut Honey Dip. It is hot pressed to order to give guests an ice cream sandwich feel.
“Opening Mister six years ago, we honestly didn’t know what to expect, because nitro ice cream was still a new concept in Canada,” says Tommy Choi, who co-owns Mister with Michael Lai and opened its original Yaletown location in 2016.
“The support has been incredible! And we now have a second location in Kits. To celebrate, we wanted to create a unique treat for our guests to enjoy and thought, why not a donut ice cream sandwich? And chocolate is one of our most popular flavours. We are huge fans of Lee’s Donuts, and they have been fun to work with.”
In addition, a special Chocolate Trio Ice Cream Pint ($13) will be available at Lee’s Donuts (1689 Johnston Street) and both Mister locations in Yaletown (1141 Mainland) and Kitsilano, starting June 11, 2022. It features an Ovaltine ice cream base with Nutella swirl and Lee’s Donut Chocolate Cake crumbles.
