BY KANTELAL BROTHERS

Scoop 'n Dough was founded by two brothers, Darchite and Jimite. It all started when Darchite became vegan in 2015 and found it difficult to enjoy eating ice creams in Lisbon, which was a family favourite activity. This need for creamy and tasty frozen delights gave birth to the dream of creating a plant-based ice cream shop. Thus, Darchite began his 3-year research for the perfect recipe for ice cream. During this process, the idea of adding one of the most celebrated products in the North American country to the ice cream came up: doughnuts .

At this point, Jimite joined in and together we developed the recipe for our celebrated dough. Nowadays, Darchite is responsible for all of the ice cream flavours, whereas Jimite's responsible for the new doughnuts! Together we have successfully created this innovative concept. In the short span of two year, we have gone from just having 4 people in total (counting on us) to over 12 people on our team. We hope to keep growing together with you!
