I was so happy when I received an email from one of Graeter's representative informing all Pittsburgh residents to be the first to taste their new ice cream flavors. It excite me and the rest of my gang when we received a package on the mail from Graeter's. Inside the bucket were six (6) pieces of Pint size ice cream with the following flavors; Salted Carmel ice cream flavor, Black Cherry Chocolate Chip, and signature Black Raspberry Chocolate Chip.
History & Company Overview
Since its founding in 1870 by Louis C. Graeter, Graeter's French Pot Ice Cream, handmade chocolate confections and fresh baked goods have become traditions in the Queen City. Today the Graeter family still faithfully uses his century old recipes and methods of production.
In the mid 1800s, the Graeter family emigrated from Bavaria eventually settling in Cincinnati, Ohio. While just a teenager, Louis Charles Graeter began making ice cream in a market at the base of Sycamore Hill. In the age before mechanized freezers, ice cream was a rare treat and had to be made in very small batches using rock salt and ice to freeze the cream.
Today, the fourth generation of the Graeter family runs the company and they still make French Pot ice cream just the way the founder did in 1870, two gallons at a time. With retail stores in Ohio and Kentucky and grocery store distribution around the country, Graeter's fans can find lots of ways to enjoy the world's best ice cream!
