If you’ve ever wanted some truly delicious homemade ice cream but didn’t want to get messy or put in any effort, then Handel’s Homemade Ice Cream parlor is for you. What started as a neighborhood scoop shop in Youngstown Ohio back in 1945, has quickly become a national iconic ice cream and yogurt chain. The franchise upholds the tradition of founder Alice Handel by serving ice cream made with her original methods and recipes. With over 100 locations nationwide, there is likely one in a city near you.
The secret to Handel’s Ice Cream is rooted in their small-town family values and small homemade batch flavors. Each batch is made fresh daily and with over 100 total flavors and 45 flavors rotating every month, there is always something new to try every time you go into the store. Their menu consists of ice cream, vegan/sorbets, sherbets and ices. You can order them piled-high in a cone, by the scoop, or packed into a pint.
When selecting your flavors, mix and match the scoops to try a little bit of everything! So far, my favorite is the Chocoholic Chunk which offers deep rich dark chocolate flavors with chocolate chips. Like most ice cream shops, they have a quality guarantee that ensures your satisfaction with every bite. If you happen to drop your cone, they will replace it free of charge.
If you are looking for the ultimate dessert catering for your event, look no further, Handel’s offers a catering option so you can be the host with the most memorable sweet treats around. They cater everything from weddings, birthdays, family reunions to corporate events, graduation parties and church socials. You can have them setup a sundae bar, pass out custom pints with your own label on the container, serve custom single scoops, or dip your favorite flavors in chocolate and serve them on a stick as ‘Handel Pops’.
If you would like to try this one-of-a-kind timeless treat, check for a store in your area by visiting the Handel’s Ice Cream Website or check on DoorDash if they offer local delivery. There is nothing better than sitting in your pajamas watching a movie and digging into a pint of Handel’s Ice Cream.
