Is it possible to tour a Carvel® store or facility?
Policies and participation may vary between locations. A tour of your local Carvel Shoppe should be arranged through the store owner or manager. Public tours of our production facilities are not available for sanitary and quality reasons.

Animal Products
The only animal products are milk and eggs. The mono and diglycerides are derived from soy, not from an animal source.

Gluten
Most of our ice creams are gluten-free. However, the chocolate crunchies that are found in our ice cream cakes are not gluten-free. Any of our Carvel retail stores will be happy to substitute something else, such as fudge, for crunchies. Our individual product pages identify products that are gluten- friendly.

Milk product
Milk found in all our ice cream is pasteurized and is not frozen until the ice cream is made in the shoppe.

Nuts
Our stores are not nut free. Our individual product pages identify products that are nut friendly.

Soy
Soy is found in many of our products in the form of soybean oil, soy lecithin, and mono & diglycerides.

Alcohol in Products
Most of the flavors added to our ice cream mixes contain alcohol. Alcohol is a common carrier for flavors, and in the finished product, there is a low level. The processing of our ice cream causes most of the alcohol to dissipate but we cannot guarantee that our products do not contain alcohol.

Corn Syrup
There is corn syrup in our chocolate and vanilla ice cream but it is not high fructose.

Guar Gum
Guar gum is derived from a bean. It has the same qualities as corn starch, but about 10 times as powerful.

Sugars in our No Sugar Added/Low Fat Ice Cream
The sweeteners used in Carvel® No Sugar Added/Low Fat ice cream are Lactitol, Acesulfame Potassium, and Aspartame.

Eggs
The vanilla and chocolate ice cream, low fat vanilla and chocolate, sorbet and no sugar added products do not contain eggs but we cannot guarantee that these are 100% egg free as they can come into contact with other ingredients that contain eggs. Eggs can be found in the following items Marshmallow Topping, Waffle Cones and Bowls, Brownies, Pound Cake, Egg Nog flavoring and Lil' Rounder® Cookies (Chocolate Chip, Double Chocolate Chip, Sugar).

Mono and Diglycerides
Mono and diglycerides are fats (oils) made from plant sources (soybean, cottonseed, sunflower or palm oil). The mono and diglycerides found in our ice cream are refined, bleached and deodorized soybean oil (RBD Soybean Oil).

Sorbitol
There is sorbitol in our regular ice cream. Polysorbates 65 and 80 are derived from sorbitol. Sorbitol is obtained from direct hydrogenation of corn (maize) sugar.

Sugar Free
We do not have a sugar free product. We do have a No Sugar Added Vanilla that our Carvel® retail stores can make different flavors. However, it is NOT sugar free, it has natural sugars in it from the milk.

How long is a Carvel® ice cream cake good for in my freezer?
Carvel ice cream cakes are made fresh every day. We use the highest quality ice cream, but the quality is also dependent on the design of your home freezer. Over time, ice crystals form in ice cream which diminish the smooth texture and rich flavors. While ice crystals are not harmful, we recommend you enjoy your Carvel ice cream cake within 7 days of purchase to ensure you get that you get "Holy cow, that's tasty" experience.

Can I get a Carvel® ice cream cake custom made?
The short answer is, "yes." The long answer is "Heck yeah. Carvel cakes can be custom ordered to your specifications at your local Carvel retail store. Custom flavors cannot be ordered through a supermarket, however many supermarket bakeries allow customers to bring a Carvel ice cream cake to the bakery to have it inscribed or decorated with a popular image or theme.
