When friends, Ken and Judy Simon and Bob and Cindy Pailet thought it would be fun to open an Ice Cream shop, a happiness business, in 1986, they never could have imagined how their vision would grow. The legacy of Bonnie Brae Ice Cream is that of a family-owned local neighborhood shop serving the best quality ice cream and providing a friendly gathering place for our neighbors.

Judy’s childhood memories of making homemade ice cream for special events served as the motivation for her to take a course at Utah State University to master the art of making small batches of house-made ice cream for our shop.

Ken and Bob oversaw the original construction and now the maintenance, and business aspects.

Cindy has been the behind-the- scenes administrator who ensures that everything runs smoothly.

From the beginning the children of the owners have been integrated into the business and are now taking an active role in the day-to-day operations.
