What Makes Wynston's so Good?
Our Philosophy:
The best ingredients, including real California dairy, only made in small batches to pack as much flavor in as possible. Any added bits, chunks, or swirls of deliciousness (we call them Insidings) are often Made in House and Locally Sourced
​
Awards Won:
NAICA (North America Ice Cream Association) hosts an annual clinic and competition where ice creams are analyzed and judged against a rigorous set of criteria and blind taste testing. We have been honored a number of times and are proud to share these delicious flavors with our fans.
​
This last round of awards marks a historic win for us. While our FTW Chocolate has held the Blue Ribbon honor since the first year we opened, Strawberry and Vanilla (Old Reliable) have always come so close—earning Red and White ribbons. But this year, they finally clinched the top spot!
This effort takes lots of food chemistry and science, hours of research based on the voting notes from Cornell University, rewrites and tweaking recipe after recipe. We continue to make tiny batch after tiny batch at home and then put it into action at the shop with gallons of vanilla that we source ethically directly from Madagascar through our friends at Sava Trading Co. and tons and tons of fresh strawberries.
