Instead of Pussy n Pooch, the shop at 222 E Broadway) is now home to the Long Beach Creamery&#8217;s second location following its flagship location in Bixby Knolls.<\/p>\n<p><img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignright size-medium wp-image-10260\" src=\"http:\/\/www.longbeachize.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2018\/03\/Creamery--300x254.jpg\" alt=\"\" width=\"300\" height=\"254\" \/>Long Beach Creamery is the stuff of Long Beach legend. Like her friend-in-business, Laurie Gray over at The Pie Bar, Creamery owner Dina Amadril began her work out of her home when on August 22, 2013, she held her first tasting at her home, with 10 strangers sampling 12 flavors, from Lord Windsor Coffee to Biscuits &amp; Jam, Madagascar Vanilla to Goat Cheese Whiskey Fig.<\/p>\n<p>That is the humble, Long Beach-style beginnings of what has become Amadril\u2019s life,\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/www.facebook.com\/longbeachcreamery\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">The Long Beach Creamery<\/a>\u2014something <a href=\"https:\/\/lbpost.com\/food\/2000004950-the-long-beach-creamery-to-open-brick-n-mortar-in-bixby-knolls\">I had discussed with her nearly four years ago<\/a> when she was opening her first shop.<\/p>\n<p>\u201cIt was not difficult to work from home at first,\u201d Amadril had said. \u201cOriginally, I had my Kitchen Aid freezer attachment and a cute turquoise Cuisinart ice cream maker. But as demand grew\u2014I ended up with 5 Cuisinarts and 3 Kitchen Aid attachments\u2014and no room in my freezers. Capacity was becoming a problem. Around this time I also started researching what it would take to make this official: the regulations, investments and equipment\u2026 All the little ice cream spinners were starting to wear on me, so I made a big move and invested in a $10K Emery Thompson Blast Freezer.\u201d<\/p>\n<p>Soon after, it all became a reality\u2014and now, she is pushing out of her heart&#8217;n&#8217;home of the Bixby\/Wrigley neighborhoods and into the hustle&#8217;n&#8217;bustle of DTLB. Spoon in hand, it\u2019s time to take the leap and go full on urban.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Love Long Beach and food?\u00a0Click here to scroll through our foodie archives. **** Photo above by Brian Addison: a flight of Long Beach Creamery&#8217;s ice cream.
