There aren’t many of us who don’t like ice-cream. And for most people the frozen treat conjures up images of long days down on the beach or a cool after-dinner dessert in the summer. Along with strawberries and cream, fish and chips and long picnic lunches it’s one of the amazing Great British summer foods. But thanks to our new-found appreciation of some classic flavours, including clotted cream ice cream is now more than just a seasonal treat.
More and more of us are enjoying luxurious clotted cream ice cream all year round, including in the cooler and winter months. And it’s not surprising when you consider the love and amazing local produce that goes into making this English classic.
Here at Kelly’s of Cornwall we’re one firm that knows a thing or two about making fantastic clotted cream ice cream – which you can enjoy whenever the fancy takes you. As one of the UK’s oldest producers, we’ve been leading the clotted cream ice cream business for more than a century and we’re understandably proud of our reputation for creating great quality, great-tasting food.
Our heritage is as rich and appealing as our amazing produce. Our Cornish clotted cream enjoys Protected Designation of Origin status, which means to be considered authentic it has to be made from milk produced in Cornwall, which has at least 55 per cent fat content.
At Kelly’s of Cornwall we pride ourselves on doing that in style. Based in the picturesque area of Bodmin, we use only the finest Cornish clotted cream and milk to create our world-famous frozen treats.
All our rich, luxurious tasting clotted cream ice cream is made using fresh milk supplied by the lovely cows at the local Trewithen Dairy – using the recipes and methods we’ve perfected over decades. The dairy is just 22 miles from our Kelly’s of Cornwall HQ meaning the milk and clotted cream we use is as fresh as it gets.
In the height of summer they regularly supply us with a staggering 17,000 of best-quality milk to help us meet demand but don’t worry, we work with them and their extensive network of 20 trusted, local farmers to make sure we can make our clotted cream ice cream all year round too.
Our partnership with these amazing local producers means we can always deliver what we believe is the UK’s best-tasting clotted cream ice cream – a taste that’s truly unique – luscious, local and totally Cornish – whatever the season. So whether it’s at the height of summer, the depths of winter or in the lead up to a busy Christmas season, our customers can enjoy great-tasting clotted cream ice cream whenever the fancy takes them.
