KALAMAZOO, MI -- The Kalamazoo area has many local joints offering ice cream, frozen yogurt and other sweet treats to help beat the summer heat.
Whether you’re looking for an after-dinner treat or an afternoon snack, ice cream shops from downtown Kalamazoo to Parchment have you covered. Looking for a trip to Lake Michigan? South Haven offers your favorite ice cream treats too.
Right in the heart of downtown is The Spirit of Kalamazoo, which sells locally owned Plainwell Ice Cream along with a variety of Kalamazoo-themed clothing and other items.

A newer option with a unique offering is Rollup Ice Cream and Bubble Tea, which opened in Kalamazoo in February. The shopoffers rolled ice cream in nearly 20 different recipes, including strawberry cheesecake, brownie batter, dairy-free orange dreamsicle and cookie dough delight.
There you can also get bubble tea and Rollup sandwich wraps. The shop is located at 3262 Stadium Drive.
“Rollup Ice Cream & Tea delivers the most unique, freshest, creamiest, richest ice cream available,” Owner Matt Searles said in a message to MLive.
The unique process begins with fresh cream poured over a favorite ingredient such as cheesecake, apple pie, fresh fruit or candy bars, Searles said.
“From fresh cream to delicious ready-to-eat all right in front of you,” Searles said. “Made to order every time.”
