Van Leeuwen Artisan Ice Cream

"We had our minds set on this local ice cream shop around the way until the Van Leeuwen truck appeared out of nowhere.....as if the Heavens sent it down for us to satisfy our hunger for sugary milky decadance."

Van Leeuwen is a New-York-City-based company that crafts archetypal artisanal ice cream, then disperses it to the masses via a cluster of trucks, using services like Twitter to update fans on their location. Its creators personally source the three ingredients in the ice cream’s custard base, from the utters up. They go to Lewis County, New York, and scrutinize the hormone-free cows that produce the milk, then they select free-range chicken eggs for the yolks, and pure cane sugar. They always use milk and cream, never condensed milk or dry milk solids, so every bite is more dense and delectable than that cardboard-carton confined stuff. Van Leeuwen offers a volume of vivacious flavors like giandujia, ginger, and red currant, as well as the classic lineup of vanilla, chocolate, strawberry. All of their disposable goods are made entirely from renewable resources like sugar cane husks and corn husks, so they make indulging in sweets an ecologically guilt-free treat.
