Richmond's returning participants include Soft Peaks Ice Cream, J Squared Ice Cream, Matcha Cafe Maiko, and Milkcow Cafe. In Burnaby, ice cream fans can visit Glenburn Soda Fountain, for example.

Noms Magazine, the festival organizer, also plans to create a festival passport for people to collect stickers and know where to visit next.
