FAQ
Frequently Asked Questions
Do you make all your own ice cream?
Yes! All of our products, ice cream, frozen yogurt, and vegan, are made right on site in small batches with ingredients added by hand. The ice cream is literally made in the Benson home.
What flavors do you have in stock today?
We try to keep our regular ice cream and frozen yogurt flavors in stock, but all of them can run out from time to time. We are currently trying new Vegan flavors so the Vegan menu is constantly changing. To find out what flavor we are trying this week, send us a message. Our Fresh Fruit Flavors are made only when fruit is available and sell quickly so they sell out frequently and even if we told you it was in stock, it may not be a short time later. We do not take pre-orders or save flavors for customers other than bulk event orders. Everything is sold on site on a first-come, first-serve basis.
Are your products allergy safe?
All of our products are homemade in the same machine, which includes dairy, gluten, tree nuts, peanuts, eggs, and soy as well as other ingredients. For slight allergies, intolerances, and dietary restrictions, please let your server know and they will do their best to make sure your order does not have ingredients that you can not eat, but in severe allergy cases, our products are not recommended.
Is your ice cream gluten free?
Our ice cream, frozen yogurt, sherbet, and vegan ice cream bases are gluten free. Some flavors have gluten add-ins such a brownies and grapenuts. All of our products are homemade in the same machine (see above).
What forms of payment do you accept?
We take all major forms of pay, including Discover, MasterCard, Visa, American Express, Apple Pay, and Google Pay.
Do you sell gift certificates?
We do sell gift certificates at the stand in any amount or for a specific item as well as online (see "Gift Cards" above).
Do you ship ice cream?
Unfortunately, we are not able to ship or distribute ice cream other than at our location. You can only get Benson's Home Made Ice Cream at our location.
