Business: Ice Castle Dreams

Owner: Carmen Lynn

When you’re a little girl watching Cinderella and Elsa with all their sparkle and glamour, you fantasize about growing up and becoming Disney princess. Carmen Lynn, owner of Ice Castle Dreams, turned that fantasy into reality.

From Elsa to Belle, Carmen Lynn dresses up as different beloved children’s characters for parties, events and deliveries. “I always wanted Ariel to come to my birthday, and she never did. So I was like, ‘You know what? I really wanna do that for other kids,’ and it’s really just to make other people happy and it helps me as well,” Lynn said in an interview with the B103 Morning Routine.

The biggest obstacle that the Ice Castle Dreams owner faced was the pandemic, but she also learned a new hobby that has become a sensation within her business.

“I’ve been really busy doing the Disney ears and delivering them, just to let your kids know, ‘You’re going to Disney,’ I love making those,” Lynn said. “During the pandemic, I had to keep myself busy so I started learning how to make different things and the Mickey Mouse ears are a lot of fun.”
