SERVING IT UP
Pink Pony Soft Serve creates and serves ice cream made from quality ingredients in small batches and uses all natural milk + cream from a local, family run New Mexican dairy. Our unique toppings and sundaes, in addition to our classics, bring out the joy at heart in each of us. The Pink Pony has revived the old school, soft serve ice cream truck experience in Santa Fe, New Mexico.
We also offer additional food and beverage delights by season.
Beth Hommell and James Sims began Pink Pony with dreams of providing simple pleasures by way of ice cream, delicious treats and to share opportunities to take back the reins!
We are women and queer owned with a genuine commitment to serving our community.

Pink Pony has a host of elevated takes on ice cream bar toppings, not limited to amarena cherries, Maldon sea salt, olive oil, candied local pecans and roasted hazelnuts, blue electric dust and prickly pear chocolate drizzle. If you can’t choose a combination, ask for a recommendation or opt for one of the four sundae cups ($7), which come topped with a preselected set of toppings that complement one another.
My towering swirl cone came topped with peanut butter sauce, honeycomb brittle and pistachio, totaling just under 10 bucks for an indulgent but more-than-memorable summertime treat. The honied nuttiness played off the chocolate and vanilla soft serve perfectly, each bite filled with new textures and flavor pairings.
