Sylvan Beach Ice Cream Company
1405 Smith Avenue
Mt. Washington Mill
Baltimore, MD
Ice cream and summer go together, well like ice cream and summer. You can’t have one without the other. When I go for this sweetest of summer confections, not just any old sugar and cream combination will do. I am fussy about what goes into my body, so it is none of that brick hard store bought crap for me. I prefer my ice cream handmade and with a social conscious.
The Sylvan Beach Ice Cream Company is ice cream nirvana. Housed in a early 19th century mill building of the Mt. Washington Mill area, next to a centuries old lazy mill stream, Sylvan Beach Ice Cream Company looks to be more at home in the European countryside than it does in the middle of the inner city. In addition to creamy homemade classics, exotic can’t miss flavors such as mango sorbet to dulce de leche entice you to go for the double-dip and relax in the shade of the wrap-around porch. All this at price that is too good to be true.
The Sylvan Beach Ice Cream Company goes it one better though, as part of the Sylvan Beach Foundation, all money earned goes to make this little corner of the planet a better place. The place is entirely run by at risk young adults. From the guy sweeping the floor to the guy making the ice cream all are 18-22 year old former drug abusers that live and work in the Sylvan program learning life and job skills. In a city where drug abuse in young adults is off the charts, the Sylvan Beach Foundation is a shining gem.
Now that is what I call doing ice cream the right way.
