Frozen custard is a super premium grade of ice cream dessert. It was developed by the French over 100 years ago and has been referred to as “French Vanilla” ice cream. The great taste of frozen custard is attributed to the high quality dairy ingredients, 10% butterfat, a small amount of pasteurized eggs and the blending of very little air during production, thus a smooth and creamy texture with a rich flavor. Once you try Whit’s Frozen Custard, the excellent taste will bring you back for more.
