Blue Bell Ice Cream was founded in 1907 and is still family owned. Many people in the south have a great appreciation for Blue Bell ice cream. It has been a long time secret in this part of the country. Currently Blue Bell is the third-best-selling ice cream in the USA. Most all of this comes from the 17 mostly southern states, spreading from the headquarters in Brenham, Texas. To give you an example of how huge they are in the south, the other top two ice cream companies (Breyers and Dryers/Edy’s) sell their products in 86% of the United States, while these southern states only account for 20% of the ice cream sales geographic market. In their home state of Texas, Blue Bell Ice Cream holds 52% of market share! Being from Denver, Colorado it makes it more difficult to get Blue Bell Ice Cream but it is worth the wait!
Blue Bell still retains most of the operating activities of their business, primarily to ensure quality control and to make sure that the freshest ingredients possible go into making the ice cream. They use milk from approximately 60,000 cows each day! The cream used from this milk is always less than 24 hours old to ensure optimal taste and quality. To give you a good example of the quality of this ice cream, a half-gallon of Blue Bell weighs 52 ounces, compared to 40 ounces for Breyers, and it has butterfat content of 13 percent, compared to 18 percent for Hagen-Dazs.
Blue Bell Ice Cream produces over 250 different frozen products. Of these, 66 are flavors of ice cream. Crowd favorites include apple cinnamon, toffee, strawberry, chocolate, and bubble gum. Some of these flavors are offered permanently year round while others are only offered seasonally. The remainder of their products include frozen yogurt, sherbet, and a variety of frozen treats on a stick.
