A search for the best ice cream can take a lifetime and feature a million delicious scoops along the way. After all, there are good reasons why ice cream ranks so highly on the list of favorite foods. It’s one of the best desserts, and it should be ranked at the top of every list of state foods. What other sweet treat appears at all your birthday parties and helps you through every breakup? What other food will cool you down when it’s 90 degrees outside, or stop a hot slice of pie from burning your tongue? That sweet cold perfection in a cone is there for us in so many ways, and we don’t even know who invented ice cream.

With that in mind, we’ve scoured the states to find the absolute best ice creams in the U.S.A. If you wanted to use this information to design an ice cream–based road trip, please invite us along to discover the best ice cream in every state.

Peach Park

The best place to grab ice cream in the state that bleeds crimson is Peach Park, where customers can buy fresh peach ice cream with a side of peach pie. The Clanton-based Peach Park Farms site is open only from March to November, so make sure you don’t pass it by or you’ll have to visit McDonald’s instead.

Wild Scoops

Alaska eats the most ice cream per capita of any state, so you know they take their scoops very seriously. Opened in 2015, this small-batch ice cream company in Anchorage uses local Alaskan add-ins and all-natural ingredients to create more than 100 different flavors. While Wild Scoops sells standard flavors, visitors can try more adventurous options too, like Holy Mole (Ancho, pasilla, guajillo peppers, and Chugach Chocolate bits) and Spruce Tip, described as “totally unique and Alaskan.” Wash it down with a delicious cold brew coffee.

This Scottsdale ice cream shop is sweetly old-fashioned and sugary sweet, selling fresh, daily-made ice cream using only local Arizona dairy. Sweet Provisions rotates flavors daily and offers myriad cone flavors and toppings, along with freshly baked cookies, pies, cakes, and other desserts.

Arkansas

Burton’s Creamery

Students at the University of Arkansas in Fayetteville line up to get soft serve and ice cream sandwiches from this food truck. The ice cream comes with toppings that are salty, sweet, or spicy and drizzled in sauce. Plus, while most soft-serve ice cream contains one to three percent butterfat, at Burton’s, the soft serve clocks in at 10 percent butterfat, making their ice cream extra creamy and rich. Keep an eye out for their bright purple truck, or visit the shop. You know about soft serve, but do you know about sorbet vs. sherbet?

Delaware

UDairy Creamery

Managed by three and run by more than 50 University of Delaware students, the UDairy Creamery attracts students and visitors alike. The ice cream base is processed in New Jersey, made from milk from the University of Delaware cows. The base is then shipped back and flavored, frozen, and packaged by UD students at the creamery’s storefront location in Newark. Some flavors brim with school pride, like Blue Hen Tracks (vanilla ice cream with mini peanut butter cups, fudge swirl, and blue and yellow sprinkles), while others are a little more out of the box, like Zest Fest (orange zest—infused ice cream with cashews and chocolate chunks). If you want a philosophical debate along with your cone, ask the students if a hot dog is a sandwich.

Ted Drewes Frozen Custard via teddrewes.com

Missouri

Ted Drewes Frozen Custard

A St. Louis staple, Ted Drewes is known for the best frozen custard in the country, or at least that’s what the locals will tell you. But visitors can also get Ted’s “concrete,” the most popular treat, at these custard stands. “The concrete, which was created in 1959, is a malt or shake so thick that it is served upside down”—without spilling from the cup— according to the website. This is a quintessential Missouri treat. Hot dogs are another classic treat, but do you know what a hot dog is made of?

Located in Lincoln, Ivanna Cone looks like its own product, with its fun turquoise walls.

The shop normally has around 15 flavors, which range from fresh strawberry and mint chip to lemongrass ginger and carrot cake. Hungry for more ice cream puns?

New York

Morgenstern’s Finest Ice Cream

New York City is known for some of the most amazing (and occasionally overrated) cuisines, and Morgenstern’s is definitely in the former category. This modern ice cream parlor usually has a line that wraps around the navy-painted building near the Bowery, but once travelers get inside, they can taste up to three flavors, like Pineapple Salted Egg Yolk, Burnt Honey Vanilla, and Edible Schoolyard Mint Chip. Morgenstern’s originally went viral for its uber-Instagrammable black coconut ash ice cream. However, due to a NYC-wide ban on using activated charcoal in food products, you’ll have to stick to one of their other flavors.

North Carolina

Sunni Sky’s Homemade Ice Cream

Seasonal, cash-only Sunni Sky’s in Angier offers more than 125 ice cream flavors and quick service. Visitors love the options and taste, and the shop consistently gets fantastic reviews.

Turns out, they’ve been given the moniker of spiciest ice cream by Adam Gertler on the Food Network, and they include habaneros, tai chilis, pecan peppers, even ghost chili sauce. Try them at your own peril!
