Parfait opened its brick-and-mortar shop in Ballard's Greenfire building one year ago last month. Owner Adria Shimada started the business started as a food truck in 2009, building capital and a following. The trained pastry chef quietly worked towards her goal of opening a permanent location that would showcase her love of all things sweet and incorporate her farm-to-table ethos.
Parfait ice cream is really different from the inside out. It's not industrial or made from an ice cream base and Adria has more control over the quality of the ingredients used, because she sources it all. She uses fresh cream and eggs and every single flavor is built from the ground up, working with farmers in the community and everything is sourced seasonally.
