Eli's Cheesecake is a Chicago Icon and we are so excited to translate their cheesecakes in to ice cream! Our newest collaboration is the Eli's Cheesecake Ice Cream bar.

Made with chocolate cheesecake ice cream, bars of frozen cheesecake are submerged inside. The shell is made with shortbread cookie crumbs, just like the crust of Eli's cheesecakes.

You'll find this flavor on our menu for the month of May, along with some other Eli's inspired surprises!

Rainbow Chip is one of our favorite flavors, designed for the kid in all of us. Birthday Cake ice cream is dipped in a fun sprinkle shell that delights people of all ages.

This pop is especially popular with our younger guests, but don't be deterred. We spent a lot of time perfecting this Birthday Cake flavor, which can sometimes be cloying and too sweet.

The flavor is filled with the joy of a childhood birthday party while being balanced for more grown up tastes.

Mini pops are perfect for events of all kinds! Available through our catering department they are BFF's next to a wedding cake, as a late night snack, or out in a cooler at your company picnic.

They are just about the cutest little things, shrunken down from our most popular flavors.

You'll find a limited selection of them in our Logan Square shop, just the right size for smaller hands or smaller appetites.

If you're planning an event this season, email us at [email protected] or follow the link in our bio to our website for more information!

May 1st is the Celtic festival of Beltain, a spring awakening filled with bonfires and new hope for the year. Our S'more Bar is born of fire, where marshmallows are burnt to black and toasted perfection before being blended into our sweet cream ice cream.

It gives the most perfect fire-kissed flavor, without which a S'more just would just be chocoalte, graham cracker, and marshmallows.

We are looking forward to this turning point in the year, as the days grow longer and warmer, our lives get busier, and ice cream fills in the all moments in between.

A little behind the scenes of a flavor we are working on! It includes bars of chocolate chip cheesecake in a chocolate cheesecake ice cream. We can't wait to share the details on our collaborators, stay tuned it's going to be so delicious when it's launched!

While we are known for our outstanding ice cream bars and ice pops, it's our Chocolate Chip ice cream sandwich that tops the charts in sales every week!

Made with a double vanilla ice cream infused with both Madagascar and Tahitian vanilla's, this ice cream sandwich is a dream. Two thin crispy chocolate chip cookies (gluten free of course) wrap this ice cream, designed to break apart between your teeth without the ice cream squishing out the sides.

It wouldn't be Pretty Cool without a little dip in something tasty and a scattering of cute sprinkles, and this sandwich features our signature chocolate shell as well as some fun sprinkles.

It's big enough to share, but so good you might not want to!

Key Lime Pie is cool and refreshing on a hot day, but crave able enough to eat all year. Our Key Lime Pie Pop starts with real key lime juice in our sweet cream ice cream base. We dip it in a graham cracker crust to "Pie-ify" this flavor, made with house made cinnamon graham cracker crumbs (gluten free!)

It's a bite of pure summer in any season, and Chicago spring can deliver all four seasons in one day at times. You'll find this flavor in our shop, or in year round!

Grab one today and taste the sunshine.

We heard that big company that makes those iconic peanut butter cups got in some hot water for using less chocolate in their treats. We are here to say we have been using real chocolate, and lots of it, since the day we put this Peanut Butter cup inspired pop on the menu!

Peanut Butter ice cream inside a chocolate shell is elevated with crispy salty flecks of crushed potato chips. To quote our founder's Uncle Tom, "It's like a Reesies from heaven."

So put down those pb cups and grab one of these bars today!
