In simple terms, it means top-quality! For those fascinated by the details of ice cream making, let’s delve into the intriguing world of super-premium ice cream. For ice cream to be super-premium, it requires an overrun (the amount of air incorporated during production) of less than 50%. Standard ice cream has about 100% overrun, meaning it’s made with equal parts air and cream. Our ice cream has a 35-40% overrun, resulting in a creamier, smoother, and richer taste due to fewer ice crystals. This lower air content creates a melt-in-your-mouth creaminess that sets us apart.
Chocolate Shoppe Ice Cream Company began in Madison, Wisconsin, in 1962. Chuck Sr. and Nancy Deadman had a vision to provide their community with a bit of happiness by serving homemade candy and ice cream. They held the philosophy that quality lies at the heart of every marvelous treat shop, and with this, they set out on a mission of making the best ice cream they could. Their rich and creamy ice cream embodies the very values we cherish – values rooted in tradition, taste, and unwavering quality. As we bring their exceptional ice cream to Clayton, it’s more than a mere dessert addition; every scoop is dished out with a touch of love and a welcoming smile, reflecting our pride in sharing this exceptional treat with our community.
