"Happiness Through Ice Cream handcrafted, highly original, super-premium, fully delicious ice cream. Featuring ever-changing seasonal ice cream flavors, specialty sundaes, hand-spun milkshakes, and floats. The Charmery ice cream intends to be fun, inventive, and a challenge to the conception of what ice cream can be. While our seven “Always” flavors ensure those seeking traditional ice cream flavors are always satiated, the remaining flavors rotate with the seasons or ice cream makers' whims. In addition, there are always two dairy-free offerings. We draw inspiration from local agriculture and maker communities using real fruit, thoughtfully sourced ingredients, and dairy from grass-fed, hormone-free, happy cows."
