Sea People Ice Cream - Mount Maunganui

We came here at Easter time and had the hot cross bun ice cream which was incredible, never tasted anything like it!! I’m pretty sure they had olive oil flavour too… but we weren’t brave enough to try that!

My non-vegan cousins went to check it out first and they reported that they didn’t think they’d have anything for me. Little did they realize that the entire selection was cashew and coconut cream. They couldn’t even tell when they tried it before they realized! Anyway, it was unbelievable. Possibly the best ice cream I’ve ever had (dairy ice creams included). It was so rich, so creamy, so flavorful. And they had real waffle cones that tasted like biscoff cookies! Enough said. I got the matcha and hot cross buns flavors, which were unbelievable.

Tucked away location near the isite. Delicious vegan ice cream. Have been hunting down mint-choc-chip since moving to NZ 6 months ago and can now die happy. Wasn’t big on the cone to be honest; had a bit of a cinnamon taste to it that I didn’t love. But all of the ice cream flavours looked incredible and am keen to come back and try more!

Freshly made waffle cone! First time I have had a fresh cone for my ice cream. They don't advertise as vegan.

Honestly might be the best ice cream I’ve ever had (vegan or otherwise)!!! Espresso brownie and mint choc chip flavors Their waffle cones are also unreal
