DESSERT

AMERICAN

In 2005, the service began with the founders’ own manufactured (Mita’s) sorbet-style Italian Ice. Over time, they added locally loved Tillamook ice cream to the menu. The food truck catering service, based in Portland, officially launched in 2015 after repeated requests from customers who discovered them at farmers markets. In 2020, they converted a new delivery van into a service vehicle, outfitted it with black vinyl graphics, and dubbed it “Tux.” Complete with a cedar-lined interior, a cedar service bank, and a digital menu, Tux is powered by a lithium-ion battery recharged with solar roof panels, making it self-sufficient, lean, and efficient.

Later, they acquired a second vehicle, a 1981 fire rescue truck, and named it “Que.” Designed with a more traditional ice cream truck aesthetic and an upscale “woody” motif, Que is also self-contained with power and water. Due to her age and temperament, she’s reserved for catering events in Portland with 175 or more guests and a limited travel radius.

Meet Doug and pat

Doug and Pat have been self-employed for the better part of their lives. After moving back from Delaware, they missed having their favorite Italian Ice treats and set out to manufacture them for the local market. Their frozen dessert catering service, The Mobile Scoop Shop, though “technically seasonal,” operates year-round due to the variety of equipment and menu items they offer (after all, who doesn’t eat ice cream in the winter?). Their service and staff are personal, professional, and engaging. They take pride in creating a fun, custom experience for the grown-up kid in everyone and are uniquely experienced in serving both small and large groups.
