Yes it really is ice cream! That’s the answer to our most frequently asked question.

In fact, Dippin' Dots® is the world's coldest ice cream and certainly the most unique frozen treat.

We start with the finest dairy ingredients, then add taste-tempting flavorings and special “goodies” to produce all our delicious flavors and flavor combinations.

Dippin' Dots are then flash-frozen using a special cryogenic process. This super-cold freezing allows our products to maintain their individual "dot" consistency. Dippin' Dots are then transported coast-to-coast and around the world by truck, train, plane and ship.

Our worldwide system of retailers sells the Ice Cream of the Future® at thousands of locations, including malls, amusement and water parks, stadiums, fairs and festivals. The product is served by the cup or in single-serving pouches.

Many of our stores offer our Dot Delicacies® line of cakes and ice cream sandwiches….plus sundaes, floats and other treats made special by the unique flavor and texture of Dippin' Dots.

Want Dippin’ Dots to take home? Ask your local store about Party Packs or order online at www.dippindots.com. Want your ice cream more conventional with just a taste of the Ice Cream of the Future? Try our Dots ‘n Cream line of ice cream…conventional ice cream made the Dippin’ Dots way frozen from the inside outTM

Whether it's "Banana Split" or “Bubblegum”, once you try one of our many flavors of ice cream, yogurt, sherbet or ice dots, you'll have to agree, it's the worlds most unique ice cream experience.

The Dippin’ Dots® Story…

The Dippin’ Dots® story brings together science, invention, entertainment, entrepreneurial spirit, and persistence.

Microbiologist Curt Jones first pursued the concept of ice cream innovation in 1987. Curt’s knowledge of cryogenic freezing methods led him to thoughts of creating an ice cream treat consumers would value as unusually fresh and flavorful. Experiments with cryogenically freezing an ice cream mix made from an old family recipe led to the flash-freezing of the very first tiny beads of ice cream. Curt’s theory proved to be true…flash-freezing does make richer, fresher tasting ice cream. Plus, because of the small round shape of the beads his little ‘dots’ were irresistibly fun to eat!

Dippin’ Dots growth is best charted through its success in various markets. In the late 80’s and early 90’s, the Dippin’ Dots dealer network began. At the same time, various theme and amusement parks began to discover their customers’ love for the exciting new ice cream. In 1995, Dippin’ Dots were first introduced to an international market, making their debut in Japan.

Today, our dealer network is an award-winning Franchise System with hundreds of locations coast-to-coast. Our locations in theme parks, water parks, stadiums, arenas and movie theatres now number in the thousands. And, to meet the growing demands of international customers, Dippin’ Dots Global was formed in 2004 to coordinate our international business opportunities.

“Your excitement excites us!” is perhaps the most famous quote by Dippin’ Dots inventor and company founder Curt Jones. Dippin’ Dots fans constantly share their excitement about flavors and the surprising texture of our little beads of ice cream. Our corporate customers enjoy telling us how Dippin’ Dots has become a favorite in their mall or park. Developing new flavors, maintaining high standards of quality, and delivering top-notch customer service are just a few of the ways we strive to maintain that level of excitement. We are proud to be innovators in the ice cream industry and to say there is only one Ice Cream of the Future…Dippin’ Dots!
