A Vermont Creemee Tour Near Killington
· by the owners of Trail Creek 74
What is a creemee? It’s Vermont’s name for ultra-rich soft-serve ice cream, famous for its signature pure maple syrup flavor. (Our favorite flavor, obviously.)
What Makes a Creemee Unique
- Texture: Creemees are served slightly warmer and contain more air than regular hard ice cream, giving them an exceptionally velvety texture.
- Butterfat content: They often feature a higher butterfat or a rich cream base compared to standard soft-serve.
- The name: The term “creemee” is uniquely Vermont, tracing its roots back to a brand name from the 1950s that stuck across the Green Mountains.
