Cali Cream Homemade Ice Cream in downtown San Diego's Gaslamp Quarter churns between 55 and 70 rotating flavors in-house every day at 425 Market Street, a 1,600-square-foot parlor inside a historic building that once operated as the Mint Saloon. Co-founded by Ken Schulenburg and Juliana Ortiz — who previously launched a Handel's Homemade franchise in Encinitas in 2016 — the Gaslamp shop opened in 2018 with a from-scratch dairy program using Real California Dairy and a total catalog of more than 300 flavor varieties that rotate through the daily case, an all-natural production volume that dwarfs the pre-packaged scoop format at Ghirardelli Ice Cream & Chocolate Shop in the same Gaslamp corridor. Dairy-free and vegan options appear in the daily rotation alongside signature creations like strawberry cheesecake, cookies-and-cream, and seasonal limited runs. The bakery expansion added fresh-baked goods, coffee, and breakfast items to the ice cream core. Pints, quarts, ice cream cakes, cake pops, and banana splits extend the format beyond cones and cups, and the shop's presence at San Diego Comic-Con and the Rady Shell have made it a fixture of the city's outdoor event circuit alongside Gaslamp dessert neighbors like Galata Turkish Ice Cream. Custom ice cream cake commissions build layered, multi-flavor celebration cakes for large-format parties, corporate events, and catered gatherings anchored by the 300-plus flavor library.
