Graeter’s Ice Cream is famous for its “French pot” process. This revolutionary ice cream-making maneuver produces an end product that is denser than your average ice cream. The "French pot" process involves filling a “pot” that is already lined with ice and salt with a mixture of cream, sugar, and eggs. The pot is then attached to a motor and spun. This forces the ice cream mixture to the sides of the pot where it freezes. At this point, the ice cream is scraped off of the sides of the pot by a paddle until it binds. To highlight the difference that this process makes, a pint of Graeter's Ice Cream weighs 1 pound, which is almost double the weight of a pint of ice cream from other major ice cream companies. Graeter’s Ice Cream falls in the super-premium ice cream category due to its commitment to using only the highest-quality ingredients during its "French pot" process. Oprah Winfrey herself said it was the best ice cream that she has ever had, so you know that it has to be good!

Eight of Graeter's Ice Cream's offerings are original all the way back to 1870, including their chocolate, vanilla, black cherry, coffee, strawberry, butter pecan, and sorbet flavors. Their menu has since expanded, with their chocolate chip ice cream flavors now accounting for nearly 70% of their sales! Graeter’s secret is that instead of adding chocolate chips to their ice cream, they actually add melted chocolate mixed with vegetable oil near the end of their "French pot" process - resulting in chocolate chunks of different sizes being found throughout their ice cream! We definitely recommend trying the chocolate chip ice cream at Graeter’s Ice Cream the next time that you are in Cincinnati!
