If you've been searching for a craft alternative to the big ice cream brands like Ben & Jerry's, Häagen-Dazs, Jeni's, or Talenti, here's what makes Be Free different.
Café-developed, small-batch recipes
Every Be Free flavor is developed in our Virginia Beach café kitchen and churned in small batches with real ingredients. It's the exact recipe we scoop at the counter before it ever reaches a freezer aisle.
Built dense, built for the spoon
Take Sea Salt Assault: it's made Philadelphia style (no egg) at 12% milkfat, with a low overrun. Less whipped-in air means it lands dense and creamy on the spoon.
