When I became affiliated with e-Creamery , I have to admit, I was a little hesitant placing my order of ice cream for delivery…after all-it’s ice cream! How can it possibly be delivered without melting?
After receiving my order everything changed. Let me explain why.
First: A little background about e-Creamery
In 2007 in Omaha, Nebraska – Becky App and Abby Jordan formed e-Creamery specializing in gourmet ice cream, sorbet, and gelato. Since the beginning e-Creamery have been churning classic favorites, original flavors and customers’ unique creations in their boutique ice cream parlor ever since. Each flavor is made in small batches, hand packed and labeled with a personal touch. e-Creamery prides itself on exceptional customer service, personalized packaging, and artistically pushing themselves creating new and custom flavors for their customers.
Quickly gaining recognition throughout the country with appearances on Shark Tank, Oprah, ESPN, and EveryDay with Rachael Ray- as well as features in many publications, e-creamery- a once small ice cream parlor in Omaha, Nebraska – will no doubt be a huge success as it continues to grow.
Box Arrival Day
My box arrived on schedule waiting 4 hours before the opening, as I was out running errands.
Keep in mind-Inside the box my order of ice cream is packaged in a styrofoam sealed container on dry ice.
Now the real test—Is it melting???
Remember my order was sitting on by porch for 4 hours in Florida! I have to admit, I had a little bet with myself-I thought for sure everything would be melted and ice cream goo was all over the box. YOU guessed it—- I lost!
Box Opening
Upon opening the box you see a very nice welcome greeting before the un-boxing. Once the lid is removed-a puff of cool air hits you in the face indicating dry ice is still doing its job. (no playing with dry ice) Although my pints shifted during transport you can see they were carefully packaged at the origination point. More importantly the product was completely frozen, perfectly sealed, and NO leaks.
Appearance
These are the cutest ice cream pints I have ever seen!
The Taste Test
The pints have a sealed strip keeping the lid closed but it is easy enough to take off. Upon opening, you can immediately see this is no ordinary ice-cream and is far superior than the usual brand you might buy in the grocery store. Yep- Just one spoonful-that’s all it takes. e-Creamery is rich, creamy goodness with just the right amount of sweetness-not overpowering and the blending ratio of additives is just right-just as I would expect from a small boutique style gourmet Ice-cream parlor. This is definitely a luxury-gourmet product worthy of gift giving! Each and every flavor is unique and absolutely delicious.
Ordering
Visiting e-Creamery.com is easy and straight forward making gift giving/ordering easy to pick bundles appropriate for any occasion-even corporate events. There are several options available- you just have to decide what is best suited for your needs. There are also a variety of 30 flavors to pick from. Everyone has one, and I am pretty sure it is on the list of available choices of ice cream, gelato, or sorbet-if not you can completely customize your own flavor and packaging. A ice cream sandwich kit and party supplies are also available to kick up any celebration. Gift messaging is available for free, or you can select a hand written card for $4.99.
Shipping
Shipping is an additional charge-as shipping ice cream is a very delicate process. There are several options, take a look at them carefully. Make the best choice for you and keep your budget in mind when ordering. Also please take a look at the shipping days, there are certain restrictions to be sure your order arrives on time, and remains intact. Best option: plan on being available to get the parcel on delivery day.
Is e-Creamery Worth the Price?
Yes! Absolutely! This product is gourmet and handmade in small batches to order -delivered to you home, a friend or loved one-perfectly packaged, still frozen with the cutest custom designed packaging? None that I know of in all my ice cream searching years.
