Frozen Custard

Historians tell us that frozen custard was first born as a carnival treat at New York’s famed Coney Island.  It developed an early following through the Northeast and the Midwest as customers fell in love with the elegant texture and thick, creamy presentation.

People have confused frozen custard with soft serve ice cream for years, but there are three major differences.

  1. Traditional ice cream may consist of 50% air, soft serve is 50% air, while the mix of air in Curly’s Frozen Custard is less than 20% (so you receive a lot more product in the same cup).
  2. Less air means no ice crystals, and nothing but a consistently silky and smooth texture.
  3. Frozen custard contains at least 10% butterfat and 1.4% egg yolk, but Curly’s has even higher standards.  With our 20% butterfat content, you are experienced the ultimate rich flavor profile and smoothest frozen custard available anywhere.

The unique taste, combined with the silkiness of Curly’s Frozen Custard explain why Curly’s continues to be judged “Best of the Best” year after year.
