Since 1870. We use good manufacturing practices and allergen control procedures to segregate allergens and avoid cross-contact with uncommon allergens. Over a century ago, Regina Graeter, our family matriarch, stubbornly refused to modernize the way she made ice cream. Today, we remain just as stubborn, honoring her legacy of making the best ice cream you'll ever taste. Now in our fourth generation, we still make ice cream the same way Regina did, in small-batch French Pots, just 2-1/2 gallons at a time. Indulge & enjoy. Gourmet ground vanilla beans and pure vanilla extract from Madagascar give this ice cream its exquisite flavor.
