ORIGINS OF CELTIC CREAMERY
The brief history below may be of interest to understand the origins of Celtic Creamery! Celtic Creamery is a speciality ice cream company born from the love of ice cream in a small seaside town in Kerry on the west coast of Ireland. Sundaes is the original shop were all Celtic Creamery’s homemade recipes have originated. Sundaes a quirky, award winning, retro family r
un ice cream parlour in Ballybunion, Kerry, a quaint Irish town on the shores of the Atlantic. Regularly nominated for awards Sundaes has forged a unique path in the world of ice cream. The ice cream is homemade with a distinctive creamy texture in many sensational flavours. Jeff Hogan from Carolina Beach, NC, was on holiday in Kerry, he walked through the door of Sundaes looking for an ice cream not a whole new business venture; but he got both. Blown away by the taste of the ice cream and the laid-back beach vibe of the shop Jeff sat and chatted with Joanna
(Owner of Sundaes) for a while. Throughout the conversation Jeff revisited many times how amazing the ice cream tasted and how much it would be loved by people in North Carolina and in fact the whole United States. Jeff suggested looking into becoming a partnership and opening a shop in Carolina Beach, NC. Sundaes had been approached on numerous occasions to open other businesses in both the USA and Ireland, however, something about Jeffand his family made Joanna think he was genuine and for the first time considered the opportunity. Jeff pottered back to Carolina Beach, NC and the emails started flying across the Atlantic. It was important to keep the Irish connection strong as that is the very foundation of the company and so ‘Celtic Creamery’ was born. Celtic Creamery opened in Carolina Beach, NC in the Spring of 2018 and to date has exceeded all expectations. The ice proven itself to be an unimaginable triumph. It has taken the concept from the west coast of Ireland and travelled across the Atlantic to the USA. Many flavors that can be found in Celtic Creamery have been tailored to suit the US market and have proven to be an astounding success. We combine a unique mix of ingredients and just a little bit of Irish magic to make truly amazing, scrumptious, rich and velvety ice cream. The reviews from the general public have been ‘blushingly awesome’ One of Celtics main Unique Selling Points is the fact that the ice cream is made, churned and frozen daily on the premises. The scoop ice cream is undeniably the star of the show, but Celtic also enjoys an ever-growing reputation for the speciality old fashioned signature sundaes and hot freshly made donuts. From the first shop in Carolina Beach,North Carolina Celtic Creamery is now opening up in Jensen Beach, Florida and throughout the USA, giving opportunity for everyone to enjoy the phenomena that is Celtic Creamery Ice Cream.
