⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️⭐️

At Up North Ice Cream Company, we make our homemade ice cream in small batches every single day. During these hot summer days, your favorite flavor may occasionally disappear from the dipping cabinet—but that's usually because it was so popular we sold out!

The good news? More is already being made.

In fact, there's a very good chance the ice cream you're enjoying today was made fresh right here this morning. That's the difference small-batch homemade ice cream makes.

Thank you, Brian, and thank you to all of our amazing customers for keeping us scoopin'! 🍦❤️
