I cream and coffee
W
hoever said ice cream
and cold weather don’t
go together has never been
to Winnipeg! Downtown’s
newest sweet treat destination
Fête (pictured) serves
scratch-made ice cream and
gourmet coffee in its adorable
rainbow sprinkle-esque space.
Co-owners Élise Page and
Teri-Lynn Friesen worked with
the team at the U of M Dairy
Science Program to perfect
their supremely creamy recipe.
Try fun flavours like a French
toast and candied bacon
creation. Better yet, enjoy the
best of both worlds and try
any scoop affogato-style! 300
