Ice Cream in Downtown Salmon Arm

The Candy Vault's ice cream parlour scoops premium Foothills ice cream inside the former Bank of Nova Scotia building at 171 Hudson Avenue NE. The parlour is seasonal and typically open from May to September.

    The parlour is seasonal and typically open from May to September. Check the store hours before you come.

  • Premium Foothills ice cream

  • Waffle cones

    Part of the Candy Vault experience is the aroma of waffle cones baking and fudge cooking, with the scent of sweets in the air.

  • For every age

    It doesn't matter if you're 4 or 94. Enjoy your scoop on the bench out front, or take it with you on a walk down Hudson Avenue.

More than ice cream

The parlour sits inside the Candy Vault, so a scoop comes with over 500 items in store to explore: fudge made in-house, salt water taffy, sweet and salty liquorice, glass-bottle sodas and the retro candy you grew up with. When the parlour is closed for the season, you can still browse the store.
