Handel's: Crafting Irresistible Ice Cream, One Batch at a Time!
In the summer heat of 1945, Alice Handel created the sweetest of legacies in Youngstown, Ohio. Using fresh fruit from her backyard garden and her own personal recipes, Alice lovingly made ice cream that quickly became a neighborhood favorite. Handel’s, and a commitment to quality, was born.
To this day, Handel’s upholds the traditions Alice started all those years ago. From making each batch fresh daily to using her original methods and recipes, we’re still sharing our homemade ice cream and serving the communities we love so much one scoop at a time.
Celebrating 78 sweet years in the biz! Handel's has been serving up the ice cream, one delicious batch at a time, for nearly eight decades and finally with a new location here in San Marcos! Quality ingredients, unbeatable flavors, and a commitment to the community that's as strong as their love for ice cream.
