Sticky Monkey in the making 🍌🐒🥜🍫

Banana ice cream, ribbons of peanut butter swirl, and chocolate chips packed into every half gallon. Sweet, creamy, crunchy, and dangerously scoopable.

Ever wonder how our marble flavors come to life 🍦

It is a true team effort. These small batch favorites are made by hand as the ice cream comes straight out of the machine, layered with ingredients like chocolate crackle, caramel, cookies, and more.

In these photos, Kevin, Jorge, and Kyle are crafting Chocolate Caramel Crackle. One controls the flow, one adds the crunch, and one pours the caramel, all carefully layered into each container. Then it is hand mixed to make sure every scoop gets the perfect swirl.

From there, it heads to the freezer to set, sometimes fast tracked in our blast freezer ❄️, before it is ready for you to enjoy.

No fancy automation here, just real people, real ingredients, and a whole lot of care in every batch 💛
