Glace, the gluten-free ice cream shop Sasha Zabar opened last year, has unveiled its new location–right next door to the old one. Now located at 1268 Madison Avenue (between 90th and 91st streets), the new space also comes with a new menu of ice creams along with seasonal sundaes and favorites like the S’mores Hot Chocolate and Glacier.

The new space was designed by Levi Shaw-Faber and Audrey Hughes of Faber / Hughes and features “cotton-candy pink 20-foot ceilings, anchored by a sculptural oculus and illuminated by marshmallow-inspired mobiles, a nod to Glace’s signature toasted meringue,” as described in a press release.

A marble bar showcases 14 ice cream flavors and includes an interactive topping station and chocolate fountain. A highlight of the design is the giant, rotating sprinkle dispenser and a refined 12-seat outdoor dining area.
The new menu features flavors including Summer Peach Soft Serve, Peach Melba Sundae, and New York Peach Pie Ice Cream, with fresh peaches sourced from Anderson Farm in Riverhead, New York. There are also a number of “housemade ice creams and sorbets that marry the finesse of French glacé with the richness of Italian gelato. Under the guidance of Gelato Master Giacomo Schiavon, Sasha perfected flavors like Tiramisu, Crème Brûlée, Amarena & Yogurt, Lemon Custard & Raspberry and Hazelnut Cremino.”
There’s also a new Chocolate Mousse Sundae and Cookies & Cream Sundae, and Glace’s frozen hot chocolates have returned in new forms, with flavors including Salted Chocolate Chip Cookie, PB Chocolate Brownie, and the Glace Summer, “a playful mix of frozen hot chocolate, gluten-free cookie dough bites, potato chips, mini M&M’s and chocolate drizzle.”
Glace is open daily from 12 p.m. to 8 p.m. Learn more at glaceny.com.
