Ice cream has the power to make everything better. This past year, it's fed the need more than ever for a little sweetness in people's day.
Growing up in New York, there was never no shortage of great ice cream. Whether from the store or a seasonal cart, it's always been a delight in my life. Like many in the tri-state area, I grew up with Carvel ice cream: I would get a soft serve cone after school concerts or Little League games and an ice cream cake or a roll of flying saucers for a special occasion.
Though ice cream has remained a staple in freezers across the U.S., independent businesses across the country have felt the heat during the pandemic, trying their hardest to survive. Unfortunately, many beloved shops have shut down in the past year, but there are still plenty of independent and family-owned ice cream brands that hung on — at times, even hand-delivering treats to their customers — deserving of our support this summer.
In the age of nationwide food delivery, it is now possible for us to sample it all. The range of frozen treats available to us now fantastic: dairy, non-dairy, sorbet, shaved ice, fresh fruit pops and beyond. But there is nothing quite like getting your cone or cup fresh-scooped from the store: Whether it's a scoop from a longstanding small business in the park like Scoop Du Jour in Seattle, a sno-ball from the Stop Jockin’ Snoball Stand in New Orleans or a paleta from a local chain like Mateo’s Ice Cream & Fruit Bars in Los Angeles.

1. Malai Ice Cream: Brooklyn, NY
Operating out of its Smith Street storefront in Brooklyn, Malai is also available in select stores all around the U.S. and for delivery through Goldbelly.

2. Noona's Ice Cream: Brooklyn, NY
Hannah Bae founded Noona’s Ice Cream to meet the need for more diverse ice cream flavors in the American market, especially for Asian flavors made by Asian American companies.

7. Mikey Likes It Ice Cream: New York, NY
Mikey Cole created his brand of ice cream following the advice of his late aunt: "If you are cooking with love, someone should receive that same food with love." Now serving from two locations in NYC, on the Lower East Side and in Harlem, he will soon sell his ice cream at MoMA's Cafe 2 as well. Cole's take on banana pudding with vanilla wafers a flavor called "Brady Bunch," and "Pink Floyd" is a take on a double-strawberry cheesecake. He even serves up a flavor that encourages you to eat your greens, called "Incredible Hulk."
Cole also continues to donate food to the community and hopes his ice cream brings people together. Plus, if you’re a kid with an A on your report card: Congrats — your scoop is free!
8. Sam’s Fried Ice Cream: New York, NY
Fried ice cream has certainly come a long way since the late 1800s, and brothers Sam and Nelson Chau devoted an entire business to this delicious, deep-fried delicacy. From NYC street fairs to their Lower East Side storefront, the Chaus serve up customizable versions of the treat. Just make your flavor selection, choose your coating — breadcrumbs, cornflakes or Oreos — then they'll fry it up and top it with your choice of garnish, like condensed milk or strawberry whipped cream.
9. Big Gay Ice Cream: New York, NY
From street truck beginnings to multiple locations in Manhattan, owners Doug Quint and Bryan Petroff have made the BGIC brand a beloved one, serving up fun and whimsical soft serve treats.

Go for the iconic Salty Pimp: vanilla soft serve served decked with dulce de leche, sea salt and a chocolate shell, the Mermaid Sundae for your Key lime pie fix, or indulge in one of its new flavors of the month (perhaps the Cheeto-covered ice cream?).
Pairing fun with philanthropy, the company supports LGBTQ causes, as well as homeless and hunger initiatives.
10. Dre’s Desserts: Brooklyn, NY
A new ice cream brand launched during the pandemic from civil engineer Andre Olivier, creating and delivering pints throughout the Flatbush area of Brooklyn.
