The Scoop on NICD History

National Ice Cream Day, part of National Ice Cream Month, was established in 1984 by President Ronald Reagan to honor the joy of ice cream. This annual celebration encourages everyone to indulge in their favorite frozen treats and celebrate the happiness that ice cream brings.

National Ice Cream Day was designated by Reagan to recognize the popularity of ice cream in the United States, where it’s enjoyed by 90% of the nation’s population. The month-long celebration of ice cream includes various events, promotions and specials across the country, making it a favorite time of year for ice cream lovers of all ages. The origins of ice cream can be traced back to ancient times, but it has become an integral part of American culture, symbolizing joy, community and the simple pleasures of life.

History of Blue Bell Creameries: A Texas Tradition

Starting as the Brenham Creamery Company in Brenham, Texas, Blue Bell began by producing butter. In 1911, they started making ice cream and became known for their delicious treats. By 1930, the company adopted the name Blue Bell, inspired by the Texas bluebell wildflower.

Over the years, Blue Bell has grown into one of the most popular ice cream brands in the U.S. Their dedication to quality and tradition makes them the perfect partner for MOIC’s NICD celebration, where guests can enjoy the best Blue Bell flavors.

Ice cream is a universal language of joy, and few places capture this sentiment better than Big Gay Ice Cream in New York. Founded in 2009, this vibrant ice cream parlor has transformed the way we enjoy our favorite frozen treat, blending creative flavors with a playful and inclusive spirit. Let’s dive into the story of Big Gay Ice Cream and explore what makes it such a unique and beloved destination for ice cream enthusiasts.

The Origin Story: From Food Truck to Iconic Parlor

Big Gay Ice Cream began its journey as a humble food truck in the streets of New York City. Founders Douglas Quint and Bryan Petroff, inspired by their love for ice cream and a desire to bring a fun twist to traditional soft-serve, started serving cones with a difference. The truck quickly gained a cult following, thanks to its whimsical approach and delicious offerings. In 2011, the first brick-and-mortar shop opened in the East Village, marking the beginning of an exciting new chapter.

A Celebration of Creativity and Inclusion

One of the defining features of Big Gay Ice Cream is its celebration of creativity and inclusion. The name itself is a nod to the founders’ pride in their LGBTQ+ identity, and this spirit permeates every aspect of the brand. The vibrant, colorful branding and playful menu items reflect a commitment to creating a welcoming and joyous atmosphere for everyone.

Delectable Flavors and Unique Offerings

Big Gay Ice Cream is renowned for its inventive flavors and unique toppings that push the boundaries of traditional ice cream. Some of their most popular creations include:

Salty Pimp

The Salty Pimp is perhaps the most iconic offering at Big Gay Ice Cream. This delectable treat features vanilla soft-serve ice cream, injected with dulce de leche, sprinkled with sea salt, and dipped in a chocolate shell. The combination of sweet, salty, and creamy elements makes for an unforgettable experience.

Bea Arthur

Named after the beloved actress, the Bea Arthur combines vanilla ice cream with a swirl of dulce de leche and a generous coating of crushed Nilla wafers. It’s a nostalgic nod to classic flavors with a modern twist.

American Globs

For those who love a bit of crunch with their ice cream, the American Globs is a must-try. This creation includes vanilla ice cream mixed with pretzels, covered in chocolate dip, and sprinkled with sea salt. The result is a delightful mix of textures and flavors.

Quality Ingredients and Ethical Sourcing

At Big Gay Ice Cream, quality and ethical sourcing are paramount. The ice cream is made from premium ingredients, ensuring a rich and creamy texture in every bite. The company is committed to using natural flavors and avoiding artificial additives. Additionally, they prioritize ethical sourcing practices, ensuring that their ingredients are sustainably and responsibly obtained.

Expanding the Brand: Collaborations and Media Presence

Over the years, Big Gay Ice Cream has expanded its reach through various collaborations and media appearances. They’ve partnered with brands like Shake Shack and First We Feast to create exclusive ice cream flavors and limited-time offerings. Their inventive approach has also landed them features on popular TV shows and in numerous publications, further cementing their status as a beloved ice cream brand.

The Importance of Community and Giving Back

Big Gay Ice Cream isn’t just about serving delicious ice cream; it’s also about giving back to the community. The company frequently participates in charitable events and fundraisers, supporting causes that align with their values of inclusion and equality. This commitment to social responsibility has endeared them to customers and strengthened their connection with the community.

The Big Gay Ice Cream Cookbook

For fans who want to bring a taste of Big Gay Ice Cream into their own kitchens, the founders released “Big Gay Ice Cream: Saucy Stories & Frozen Treats: Going All the Way with Ice Cream” in 2015. This cookbook offers a behind-the-scenes look at the brand’s journey and shares recipes for some of their most popular creations. It’s a delightful read for anyone who loves ice cream and wants to try their hand at making these whimsical treats at home.
