The Classics
The flavors everyone fights over.
We bring the
sundae bar
to your LA Party.
Pre-scooped, super-premium ice cream. Up to 35 toppings. A decorated booth and friendly servers. We handle the details — you enjoy the moment.
How the sundae bar works.
Four steps from "we're throwing a party" to "everyone's holding a sundae." No fuss, no muss — that's the whole point.
01
Pick your flavors.
Classics, specialties, and dairy-free sorbets — pick any mix you like. Custom flavors welcome, just ask.
02
We roll up.
Our team arrives early to set up the decorated sundae bar, prep every topping, and get ready to serve your guests some sundae magic.
03
Guests build sundaes.
A generous 4-ounce scoop in an 8-ounce cup leaves plenty of room for toppings. Guests come back as many times as they like — just bring a clean spoon.
04
We clean up.
When the last sundae's served, the booth packs itself out. You go back to your guests. No fuss, no muss — and definitely no melted ice cream on your floor.
Plenty of delicious choices — ice creams & dairy-free sorbets.
Churned fresh almost every day, scooped generously always. Your sundae bar, your picks — mix and match from any collection.
The Specialties
For guests who want an adventure.
The Sorbets
Dairy-free & bursting with fruit.
The toppings bar, fully loaded.
10+ Included with every sundae bar and guests can come back for more.
Our Story
A treasure of pleasure in every spoonful.
We serve ice cream and sorbet to over 100 restaurants, hotels, and country clubs in the Los Angeles area.
SCOOPS LA is the pop-up ice cream shop. We bring the ice cream parlor to you. We've served hot fudge sundaes, shakes, floats, splits and more to corporations, television and movie sets, and private parties across Los Angeles. No one else caters an ice cream social quite like SCOOPS.
We provide fresh premium ice cream made in-house almost daily using high-quality ingredients and bold, rich flavors. We bring the full sundae bar experience directly to you and handle everything from setup to cleanup, so you can enjoy the event stress-free. Each serving includes a generous 4oz scoop — about the size of a tennis ball — served in an 8oz paper cup with plenty of room for 5–15 toppings of your choice. Guests are welcome to come back for additional toppings as many times as they'd like. Looking for a specific ice cream flavor or custom topping selection? Contact us directly and we'll do our best to accommodate your request.

A few small questions.
Don't see your answer here? Call us at (818) 355-9320 or send a note in the form below and we'll get back the same business day.
Two weeks is the sweet spot — it gives us time to lock in your date, finalize flavors, and confirm the topping setup. We can usually accommodate shorter lead times when our calendar has room, and we've turned around same-week parties more than once. For weddings or 500+ guest events, 4–6 weeks is wiser.
We cater across LA County — from Malibu and the Westside to Pasadena, the Valley, and the South Bay. Orange County, Ventura, and Santa Barbara are doable with a small travel fee. Outside that radius, get in touch and we'll see what we can do.
Yes. Our sorbets — Raspberry, Blackberry Cabernet, Mango, Passionfruit, Lemon, Pineapple, and more — are made without any milk or cream. We can run a full sundae bar with sorbets only, or mix them alongside our ice creams. Mention any nut allergies or dietary needs when you book and we'll plan the topping setup around them.
Local pickup and same-day LA delivery on dry ice for orders of 6 pints or more. For shipping outside Southern California, send a note with your zip and we'll quote next-day air with insulated packaging. (Heads up: shipping a single pint cross-country costs more than the pint, which is why we don't list it as a standard option.)
For on-site sundae bar catering service, usually 50 guests. Below that, we sometimes can accommodate but we recommend our Sundae Social In A Box — a self-serve setup we deliver with ice cream, toppings, sauces, cups, and spoons for your smaller gathering. The bar service really sings at 50–250 guests but we've staffed events from 20 up past 1,500.
