Blue Bell Creameries

it all started on a hot summer day in 1907 when a group of local businessmen decided to open a creamery and make butter from excess cream brought in by area farmers. a few years later the creamery began making ice cream and delivering it to neighbors by horse and wagon. much has changed since those early days but the quality and care we use in making our ice cream hasn't. some people say blue bell is "the best ice cream in the country." blue bell is now one of the top selling ice cream brands in the nation even though it is only available in parts of 23 states, stretching throughout the southern, western and midwestern regions of the u.s.
