FAQ

Company

A business mentor and taste tester was the inspiration behind our name because he admitted he thought the product was going to taste chalky and strange. We said “What you’re eating is a real, true scoop of ice cream.” His actual testimonial? “It was delicious.” 

We do hire seasonal internships. If you're interested, send us an email at hello@maketruescoops.com and tell us a little bit about yourself!

We are a women-owned business and our mixes are kosher dairy and gluten-free certified. Sprinkles are kosher certified. 

Product Info

All of the things your favorite frozen pint is made of, but in powder form! Heavy cream powder, nonfat milk powder, sugar, salt, and teeny bit of guar gum. 

Hang on, guar gum? Isn’t that a stabilizer? Why use it? 

Yes and yes. There is less than 1% of guar gum, which is derived from guar beans. Its thickens the mixture and slows down the growth of ice crystals. That means thick and creamy ice cream for you! 

All products are naturally shelf-stable (because it's all dry ingredients) up to 18 months! Look for the "Best if used by" date on the back of the pouch. 

In your pantry! Yes, pantry, right next to the can of beans. They'll do best in low humidity environments at 75F or lower. Anything higher may cause the shelf life to shorten. 

Use an airtight plastic container that can go in the freezer. There are a lot of great ice cream storage containers online. Our favorite brand is "Glide-a-Scoop" by Tovolo. 

Pro tip: Place a piece of parchment paper on top of the ice cream to further prevent any ice crystals from forming. Peel off before scooping! Duh.

We can’t physically stop you from doing so, but we strongly advise against it. Each mix was developed with half & half in mind in order to achieve the right flavor and texture.
