Jubie’s Creamery took their ice cream to Palm Beach, FL earilier this month to compete against some of the best ice cream shops in the country at the Annual Ice Cream Association Conecon.
As all 1000 ice cream attendees voted
Jubies’s attendees at the convention Jubie’s Hot Honeycomb sweeped with Best of the Midwest and Best Flavor overall! This is the highest award given at Conecon. This means they literally have the BEST FLAVOR IN NORTH AMERICA! They didn’t do it on their own, so they want to thank Tasty Bacon Food Truck and Winans Chocolate for offering incredible, local products featured in Hot Honeycomb.
At the same Convention, they also submitted their Vanilla, Chocolate, and Strawberry ice creams for the chance to become a Grand Master Ice Cream MakerOver the last 3 years, they’ve been working towards this award and submitting our Vanilla, Chocolate, and Strawberry flavors as a part of the Ice Cream Clinic program.
Each year, we ship these 3 classic flavors to Cornell University to get science tested according to FDA standards to ensure food safe manufacturing practices on the molecular level. These flavors are then tasted by the University’s renowned Dairy Extension Team and scored according to ice cream industry standards such as flavor, texture, structure, color, melting point, etc.
At the beginning of every convention, they learn about how their flavors tested and scored. Depending on the score, you can earn a white, red, or blue ribbon of excellence. Any company that receives 3 blue ribbons in a 5 year time span is rewarded for their excellence and consistency in their products and overall manufacturing practices.
This year was their 3rd year of winning the coveted blue ribbon (with 4 total blue ribbons under their belt) meaning they are now officially Grand Master Ice Cream Makers along with 8 other well-deserving shops in North America! Who knew all the reasons you love Jubie’s so much was backed by all this science?!
