Organic Handmade Ice Cream
Kødbyens Is produces handmade popsicles and has existed since 1st June 2016. Our ice cream is produced in the heart of Copenhagen's creative bubble – Kødbyen, from which the name, Kødbyens Is came to life. Kødbyen is a vibrant hangout spot that oozes with some of the city’s most skilled and creative professionals who live in the surrounding area.
We value good craftsmanship
Each and every single ice cream product is handmade with love and every detail is carefully considered. We take pride in expressing our creativity and craftsmanship through our unique flavours and aesthetics.
We make everything by hand, so our ice cream has less air content; this means you get more ice cream for your money and much fewer additives. Our ice cream is based on whole milk and cream, which gives a lighter and creamier result than with pure cream. We also have a broad selection of sorbets and vegan ice cream.
Our ice cream selection is wide, so you’ll find classics, such as vanilla with dark chocolate, liquorice and pistachio, to slightly more experimental flavours, such as coconut sorbet with chopped dill, sea buckthorn, as well as chives with hazlenut in early spring. Our flavour offerings change continuously, usually from season to season.
Quality ingredients and raw organic products
At Kødbyens Is, we make ice cream that is inspired by Italian methods, but fused with our very own Nordic twist. More milk is used than cream, which results in a creamier product that isn’t as heavy as ice cream can often be. Also, did we mention that everything is organic?
In 2018, we dedicated a lot of time to carefully fine-tune our base recipe, so we could provide high quality ice cream with a consistency that lasts, but without a lot of the unnecessary additives. We made the decision not to add fat or oil to our ice cream, which is commonly used to maintain consistency for a longer period of time. Our ice cream therefore melts a little faster - but you can enjoy it knowing that our product was handmade from high quality, raw and organic ingredients, minus all the unnecessary additives.
Who are we?
Kødbyens Is is owned by Mikael Danvad Kristensen and Karsten Christoffersen, who opened the store on 1st June 2016, where they now produce handmade popsicles. Mikael and Karsten have been making ice cream for the past seven years. They have also been to Italy where they learned how to create ice cream from scratch with one of the 'great ice cream masters' in the field.
