This season hit different for us.
You might have noticed a few changes — your favorite flavors weren’t always available, and things were a little quieter than usual.
In March, our beloved Ira — the heart and soul of our ice cream production — was diagnosed with a malicious, very aggressive cancer.
Ira had been with us for 3.5 years. She fled the war in Ukraine and built a new home here in Berlin. With unmatched dedication, strength, and kindness, she became part of our family — giving her heart and soul every single day.
When her diagnosis came, we shifted our priorities to give back what we had received from her: support, care, time, and love. We stood by her through hospital visits and chemo treatments, hoping for a miracle.
Sadly, after only seven months, we lost this fight.
In the early hours of Saturday morning, Ira passed away peacefully.
She’s now going home — to her husband in Chernihiv.
We are truly heartbroken.
In Berlin Ira leaves behind her daughter and her three sweet grandchildren she so dearly wanted to see grow up.
We’re deeply grateful to the teams DRK Westend & Köpenick hospitals and the for doing everything in their hands to help her fight the cancer and ease her journey.
Ira, we will miss you beyond words. Life isn’t fair sometimes.
Nothing will ever be quite the same without you here. 🤍
