Our Sweet Story

Welcome to Crème De La Crème Mobile Ice-Trike Boutique, where every treat is a celebration, and every celebration is sweeter with our handcrafted ice cream delights!


A Passion for Parties


My love for parties and celebrations began when I was a young girl in Grand Rapids, Michigan, surrounded by my large, loving family. We have cherished many special moments together, from baptisms and first communions to graduations, engagements, rehearsal dinners, weddings, baby showers and family reunions. These gatherings have been filled with joy, laughter and love, but most importantly, memories to hold on to for the rest of our lives. It has been in these moments that my passion for celebration ignited.


Crème De La Crème Mobile Ice-Trike Boutique is here to bring that same joy, laughter, love and nostalgia to your own parties and celebrations!

Now, with my son married and a simple, loving life with my husband Mike, it’s the perfect time to bring my dream to life!

One name stood out: "Madeleine De Proust," suggested by my twin brother Jim. This French expression, inspired by Marcel Proust, captures the magic of childhood memories—just like our treats do.

Every scoop and sammie is a little bite of happiness, bringing back laughter, sweetness, and pure joy. Thank you, Jim, and our incredible community, for helping us celebrate these timeless moments!

A Grand Connection

A Grand Connection

The Blue Bridge over the Grand River holds a special place in my heart. Close to the Riverwalk, GVSU, and my CPA days at Crowe, it represents my journey—living, working, and playing in this vibrant community. It’s seen countless celebrations, and now, Crème De La Crème is here to add a touch of sweetness and whimsy to your special moments in the place we all love.
