Ice Cream Capital of the World Museum The Wells Blue Bunny Ice Cream Museum is a "must see" for ice cream lovers. The museum is modern and very nice. Very interesting to see how the company got started. The souvenir shop is nice and the ice cream shop is totally incredible. The desserts we had were fanshamalamadingdongtastic! I think we were a bit disoriented when we left due to a mild sugar overdose. [Shari Buehler, 12/10/2006][RA: Wells Dairy has been in Le Mars since 1913. In 1994, the Iowa General Assembly officially proclaimed Le Mars as the "Ice Cream Capital of the World," and the town promotes itself as such. The ice cream museum is part of the Wells' Dairy Visitor Center.]
