Forever Flavors
Double Fold Vanilla
Our Madagascar grown extract uses double the amount of vanilla beans by volume and we add a dash of vanilla paste to push this flavor over the top. We also support the amazing work being done by our friends at the Duke Lemur Center by adopting a lemur every year. Buy a scoop, help save a lemur!
Classic Chocolate
Arguably the best cocoa on the planet, Callebaut, gets turned into a milky-chocolatey ganache that will make heads roll. Classic. Commanding. Chocolate.
Coffee Bourbon
Our Raleigh friends at Slingshot Coffee make the best cold brew coffee around, so what could make it better? Bourbon. And the bourbon made by our Durham friends, Mystic Bourbon, is exceptional.
Girl Scout Mint
We buy thousands of Girl Scout Thin Mint cookies directly from our local scout troops! The cookies get crushed and folded into mint ice cream made with organic peppermint extract.
Roasted Strawberry and Honey
We wanted to have fresh strawberry on the menu year-round but they have a short growing season in NC. Enter our friends with Seal the Seasons and problem solved! Delicious North Carolina strawberries married to a ripple of local honey!
Sola Cinnamon Donut
Our “family” at SOLA Coffee and Cafe used to receive our shipments of cream before we had a commercial kitchen home. As a thank you, we now take their famous mini-donuts and dunk them overnight in our base to transform them into one of our signature flavors. You will want to thank them too.
Blackberry Hibiscus
There is one tea shop in Raleigh you need to visit, Tin Roof Teas. There is one fruit tea blend that you need to try, Blackberry Hibiscus. It’s a blend of hibiscus blossoms tossed with dried blackberries and other fruits. We did you one better and morphed this into an ice cream.
Cookies & Cream
Raise your hand if you can eat a whole sleeve of those delicious black and white cookies? Raise two hands if you can eat a whole pint of this classic combo!
Sea Salt Chip Cookie Dough
Cookie dough just makes everything better. The ladies at Southern Sugar Bakery make a show-stopping eggless cookie dough chock-full of chocolate chips. Big, doughy chunks are tossed into our vanilla base so you get that perfect bite.
Non Dairy Strawberry
This coconut cream based ice cream gives you all the strawberry flavor without any of the dairy. Fruity and refreshing!
Non Dairy Chocolate
For our lactose free friends we made a coconut cream based chocolate flavor. It’s fudgy and full of cocoa!

Butterscotch Haystack
If you don’t know what a butterscotch haystack is, you may not be from the South. But that is all right, because we love you and we decided to give them a make-over before you were introduced. We hand-burn small batches of butterscotch then spin with melted morsels and crispy chow mein noodles for a crunchy ‘haystack nib’.
Non Dairy Chocolate
For our lactose free friends we made a coconut cream based chocolate flavor. It’s fudgy and full of cocoa!
