our attitude

100% natural ingredients
and best organic milk
of cows with horns.

nature does not need amplifiers.

Around 70% of the ice cream consumed in Europe is industrially produced and optimized for the mass market with flavourings, colourings and emulsifiers. Real ice cream doesn’t need any of that, because nature gives us the best taste. That’s why we only use natural ingredients to make creamy and flavorful ice cream of superlatives.

Why we go to such great lengths to avoid any flavor enhancers and
artificial additives?
Because you can simply taste the difference.

Ingrid Kriegl, owner

Happy cows
have horns.

The basis for our ice cream is organic milk from Austrian cows with horns. Freshly milked every day in the immediate vicinity, it is delivered directly to us by the farmer. Why the horns? Cows with horns are a sign of species-appropriate animal husbandry. Horns also influence the quality and digestibility of the milk.

When the fruit is harvested fully ripe and the oils and nuts are of the highest quality, we are gifted with wonderful taste and magnificent colors. This makes the addition of flavorings, colorings and all other additives superfluous. Body and palate thank us.

Nature tastes best.

The good is so close.

We are proud to have regional partners for almost all of our ingredients. We only have to look beyond the Alps for a few. It is particularly important for us to seek and maintain direct contact with farmers and suppliers instead of relying solely on a label.

Our constant aim is to work as sustainably as possible.
We are currently looking for the best ecological solution for our packaging without importing “bioplastic packaging” from Asia. Thanks to common sense. Ideas? Then write to us!

In 2021, we will continue to invest in the energy efficiency of our production and launch a social impact project that has long been close to our hearts. More on this soon!

Getting better and better.

Benvenuto

For over 40 years and now in its third generation, the Benvenuto family has been producing and processing nuts and fruit, especially hazelnuts from Piedmont. They are known among gourmets all over the world and are considered to be the best and tastiest of all. The queen of hazelnuts is the Tonda Gentile Trilobata variety.

Stefan Nothdurfter

Stefan Nothdurfter’s juicy, sweet Stanzer Zwetschken plums grow on a sunny plateau in Tyrol, 1000 meters above sea level. This very special variety loves the dry alpine climate. The south-facing slopes of the orchards, countless hours of sunshine, the large differences in temperature between day and night, high mineral content, as well as the hair dryer, characterize the particularly intense aroma of the Stanzer Zwetschke.
We are not only in love with the special taste, but above all with the color it gives our ice cream.

This plateau is the highest fruit-growing region in Europe and has even been awarded the title “Genuss Region Stanzer Zwetschke” by the Austrian Ministry of Life.

biohof Häusl

Bernadette and Martin Lohninger from the Häusl organic farm in the neighborhood supply us with yoghurt and buttermilk, which are delivered fresh to the manufactory every day. The open barn offers the cows outdoor exercise all year round, antibiotics are only used in emergencies and transportation routes are kept as short as possible.
A large photovoltaic system ensures the sustainable operation of the farm, with which they would soon like to be self-sufficient in terms of energy.

We appreciate the loving and organic husbandry of the cows, the short distance of the dairy products from the farm to us, as well as the Lohninger family themselves :)

Biohof Häusl is a member of BIO AUSTRIA.

Organic farm Lugmayr

Together with his wife Anna, Johann Lugmayr grows the best organic rhubarb on around 15 hectares. Although the intensely reddish vegetable is a grateful plant for organic cultivation, it is not easy to cultivate. Rhubarb is only harvested up to a fixed date, June 24, so that the canes can recover well after the harvest. The soil is also very stressed and therefore needs a new crop after a few years. Carrots, spinach, peas and runner beans thus grow on Johann Lugmayr’s fields in an organic circular economy.

The rhubarb stalks are harvested by hand from April to June. Rhubarb is at its tastiest when the year brings a cold winter and a warm spring.

Kittseer apricot

Connoisseurs also call it Austria’s “best apricot”.

Around 35,000 trees of the ”Hungarian Beast” thrive on around 110 hectares in the wonderful Pannonian climate between the Danube and Lake Neusiedl. Unmistakably juicy fruits that can be recognized from afar by their size and bright color alone.

The harvest usually lasts from early to mid-July. At this time of year, the 2,000-strong community of Kittsee near the Slovakian capital Bratislava is buzzing with activity. Not only because of the harvest, but also because the apricots are sold on two stalls in the middle of the village.

The ”Kittseer Marille” brand has been protected since 2004 to prevent apricots that do not originate from the Genussregion from being sold under the name ”Kittseer Marille”.

biohof gruberbauer

On their organic farm in Saalfelden, Karin and Ernst Mosshammer pay particular attention to naturalness and diversity. Nature is the best guide for animal-friendly cattle husbandry, which is why the husbandry conditions are adapted to the needs of the cows and not vice versa. The cows are allowed to keep their horns, have access to the outdoors all year round and are provided with 100% species-appropriate feed – green fodder, hay, fermented hay and alfalfa. Grass or clover silage is not used at all. The use of concentrated feed is also unnecessary, as the feed is versatile and nutritious due to the high biodiversity of the meadows. This has a positive effect on the health of the herd – in some years, the Gruberhof manages completely without medication.

By consistently increasing biodiversity in the fields, Karin and Ernst have also discovered their love of butterflies and have been creating specific habitats to promote biodiversity for years. Very rare species have returned to the Gruberhof, as well as bees, bumblebees, birds, frogs and much more. gratefully accept the offer. Animals and humans alike benefit from the increasingly intact nature on the farm. Healthy cows give us healthy and tasty milk, which we process with great pleasure into our very special ice cream in our Misssi Manufaktur.
