Trader Joe’s French Vanilla Ice Cream is a super premium vanilla ice cream that talks the talk - we don’t mean French; we mean the language of flavor! Our rich French Vanilla Ice Cream has an unmistakably creamy-custard texture that can be enjoyed plain or used as a companion for any combination of cookies, candies, and chocolates.

What makes a quart of French vanilla ice cream “French”, you ask? It has nothing to do with the vanilla bean itself (which is only grown near the equator, not near France at all); it merely means that the ice cream begins with a base that contains egg yolks, unlike regular vanilla ice cream. Trader Joe’s French Vanilla Ice Cream is made in this French tradition, which ultimately lends a pale-yellow color and a richer, smoother consistency than traditional vanilla ice cream. Notice that super premium designation? To get there, an ice cream must have less than 50% overrun, meaning that one gallon of mix would create no more than one and a half gallons of finished ice cream. Trader Joe’s French Vanilla Ice Cream has 26% overrun - aka dense, super SUPER premium ice cream!
