Reopening at Prebbleton Peonies October 2026!

Our story

A little trailer with a whole lot of heart

Ruby Scoops Real Fruit Ice Cream was started in Christchurch in 2025 out of a love for summer, ice cream, fresh fruit, and creating moments that make people smile.

At Ruby Scoops, we believe the best things are simple - quality ingredients and moments shared with people you love.

Meet the Ruby Scoops Trailer

Our little trailer is where the magic happens.

Designed to bring joy wherever we park, Ruby Scoops is a mobile ice cream experience serving up delicious real fruit ice cream across Canterbury.

Whether you find us among the peonies, at a sporting event, festival, or your own backyard event  we’re here to create sweet memories one scoop at a time.

The girl behind the name

Ruby Scoops is named after our RottyxRidgeback Ruby. Always ready for an adventure (and never one to turn down a treat!), Ruby inspired a business built around joy, connection and making memories.

Her playful spirit is at the heart of everything we do, and she's the reason you'll spot little paw prints and plenty of dog-friendly touches along the way.

Ruby Scoops - the sweetest girl in town.
Bringing you freshly blended real fruit ice cream all summer long.

Meet Alesha

I'm the owner, chief scooper and the face behind Ruby Scoops Real Fruit Ice Cream Christchurch.

I wanted to create something that combined my love of great food and bringing people together. Ruby Scoops is my way of sharing with the Canterbury community one fresh, fruity scoop at a time.

Whether you visit us at a market, book us for your wedding or stop by after a day exploring, I hope every visit leaves you with a smile.

Meet Sam

When the biggest events come around, Alesha’s other half, Sam, is always ready to lend a hand. With his infectious enthusiasm, Sam handles the busiest days with a smile. Whether he’s helping scoop ice cream or chatting to families queuing up at the trailer, Sam brings extra energy to every event.
