New York is home to plenty of museums, but this one may just be the tastiest yet. The Museum of Ice Cream (MOIC) announced that it will open a location in SoHo on December 14th!
The museum, which has operated its flagship location in San Francisco since 2017, opened its first pop-up in New York three years ago. The new location at 558 Broadway will feature three floors of new concepts, 13 exhibits and, of course, more ice cream! It will also include a shop, lounge, café and bar.
Some of the multi-sensory installations at MOIC’s New York location will include a three-story slide, a floating table of treats, a New York-inspired “Celestial Subway” exhibit and even the museum’s biggest sprinkle pool to date! (MOIC’s San Francisco location boasts a pool filled with nearly 100 million biodegradable sprinkles.)

Besides its San Francisco location and New York pop-up, the museum has sent an ice cream truck to 26 cities across the United States.
The museum also makes its own delicious ice cream flavors. Flavors include Queen Bee, a honey ice cream with chocolate-covered pieces of honeycomb, and Malt Shake, a malted chocolate ice cream with malted milk balls. You can find these at select Target and Safeway locations across the country.
