Glace opened its doors on a sunny day in 1992 in a charming coastal town, founded by best friends Simona Arnold and Max DuPont. Inspired by their childhood memories of making homemade ice cream during summer holidays, the duo wanted to create a place where people of all ages could savor the joy of authentic, handcrafted treats. They spent years perfecting their recipes, using only the finest ingredients, from farm-fresh cream to exotic fruits and fair-trade chocolate. With just five flavors and a dream, Sophie and Max transformed their humble storefront into a community favorite.
As word spread, Glace became synonymous with innovation and quality. By 2005, the shop had expanded its menu to include over 30 unique flavors, from classics like Vanilla Bean to bold creations like Mango Lassi and Chocolate Lamington. The introduction of seasonal specials, like Pumpkin Spice in autumn and Peppermint Swirl during the holidays, kept customers coming back for new surprises. Glace also became a pioneer in offering dairy-free and vegan options, ensuring everyone could indulge in their frozen delights. Their dedication to crafting every batch by hand earned them numerous awards and a loyal fan base that extended far beyond their hometown.
Today, Glace is celebrated as more than just an ice cream shop—it's a beloved tradition. Sophie and Max's vision lives on, with their children now leading the way and introducing modern touches while preserving the timeless charm of the original store. From hosting community events to collaborating with local artisans for unique flavors, Glace continues to spread happiness one scoop at a time. With every cone, cup, and sundae, they honor their mission to create unforgettable moments and sweet memories for everyone who walks through their doors.
