And Here They Are!Â
What Makes Austin Scoops Ice Cream, Delivered Through Trashless, the Best Way to Get Ice Cream?
All Natural Ingredients*Â
Other ice cream brands are often crammed with fillers and artificial ingredients. Not here. Â
*Except Birthday Cake and some ingredients in Oreos.Â
No Artificial ColoringÂ
The green color of most other brands' mint chip, for example, is not mint, it is food coloring. The mint chip here is real, fresh mint.Â
Super PremiumÂ
Only the best - for a more satisfying, luxurious ice cream experience. Read below for what Super Premium means.Â
Zero-Waste Packaging
This ice cream never touches plastic or synthetic chemicals that line the containers of ice cream that comes in single use packaging - none of which can be recycled either. More convenient as well because there is nothing to rip, crush or throw away.Â
Locally Made, SustainablyÂ
Made right here in Austin, Texas in a brand new facility with extensive sustainability features, including the use of solar energy.Â
Delivered FreshÂ
This ice cream is made to order for you in batches just days before being delivered to you. Nothing but the best!Â
What is super premium ice cream?
Super-premium ice cream has more butterfat and calories than ice cream with more air. In order for ice cream to be labeled super-premium, it must have an overrun (read more about overrun below) of less than 50 percent and also needs to contain 14 to 18 percent butterfat. This gives it a creamy texture and full-bodied taste.Â
Austin Scoops only makes Super Premium ice cream that not only tastes better, but is also made with all natural ingredients.Â
What is Overrun?Â
Ice cream is made using varying amounts of overrun, which is the amount of air pushed into the ice cream while it is being churned. If ice cream has a 50 percent overrun, that means that it is made with one part air for every two parts cream. Some ice cream manufacturers use a quart of ice cream base and make it into a quart and a half of ice cream, while others add more air to produce a gallon of ice cream.
The amount of overrun used is important because ice cream made with a lower overrun is richer, smoother, and creamier. Ice cream with less air has fewer ice crystals, which means the ice cream will melt in your mouth and not have a crunchy texture. Ice cream with less air also contains a higher proportion of cream, which makes it taste better.
Premium ice cream usually has 11 to 15 percent butterfat and 60 to 90 percent overrun. As stated above, Super-premium ice cream has more butterfat and calories than ice cream with more air. In order for ice cream to be labeled super-premium, it must have an overrun of less than 50 percent and also needs to contain 14 to 18 percent butterfat.Â
