Disclosure: eCreamery created a Her Heartland Soul ice cream flavor for me. All thoughts and opinions are my own.
I came home to a very sweet surprise yesterday.
Literally sweet! A few weeks ago Omaha-based ice cream company, eCreamery, reached out to see if they could send me some of their delicious creations via mail. You read that right, while eCreamery is made, packaged, and sold less than five miles from my house, they wanted to send me some ice cream in the mail.
That’s because eCreamery isn’t just an Omaha ice cream store. They were on Shark Tank, have had features in most major news outlets (including Oprah!), and do a bigger business shipping to people outside of Omaha than they do from in-person sales at their storefront.
They don’t just sell ice cream and ship it anywhere you want. They allow you to gift ice cream. You pick the flavors, the mix-ins, and even name the carton. They then ship it wherever you need via next day mail on dry ice.
Josh opening the ice cream cooler. Always be careful with dry ice and open it with gloves in a well-ventilated area.
My ice cream arrived safe and sound, and was more frozen than it would have been if it was being kept in a freezer. Dry ice is magical.
Seeing my blog name on products is surreal to me.
Even better is having my blog name next to my all-time favorite ice cream flavors. Premium coffee ice cream with heath bar pieces and fudge swirls. My creation of deliciousness.
When ordering from eCreamery you can either completely create your own ice cream, gelato, or sorbetto flavors, or pick from best sellers. If you pick from the best seller flavors you can mix and match your choices so one tub is one flavor, the second is another flavor, and so on.
My creation is one of kind. 😀
It’s funny, when Josh’s parents were here they said they had to send a customized flavor to their friends back in Connecticut, not knowing I was talking with eCreamery about working with them.
The ice cream is fabulous. There are so many occasions that are perfect for giving the gift of ice cream. I know I would always enjoy it!
And enjoy it I did. As soon as I opened the box I knew I had to dig in.
It’s hard to describe the taste of something through a computer screen, but this ice cream is good. Every ingredient is of the highest quality and the flavors are so full. I finally have my perfect ice cream!
If you want to create your perfect ice cream check out eCreamery. You can even request the Her Heartland Soul and see why I am dying over this deliciousness.

Whaaaat! So jealous! Jon and I went to eCreamery right after our wedding reception, and they gave us free ice cream and took our photo. 🙂 They are the NICEST and their ice cream is the BEST! I should have thought to order some for our 5th anniversary Friday, but I think it’s too late now?! Off to check!
Erin says
Oh that is such a fun anniversary idea! I love that you guys went there right after the wedding!

Sally Schriner says
eCreamery is top notch. Love the ability to customize flavors and labels. Such a great gift idea!!!
Erin says
I love eCreamery! And the fact they ship to people who aren’t lucky enough to live by their store in Omaha!
GiGi Eats says
I get WINK Frozen Desserts in the mail and the second they arrive… I eat the WHOLE shipment, it’s bad… BUT SOOO good! LOL!
Erin says
Ohh I’ve never had WINK but it sounds yummy!
katie says
That looks awesome! So fun! I could eat that right now!
Erin says
I’ve been eating wayyy too much ice cream as a result! haha
Kaylin @ Enticing Healthy Eating says
So exciting! I remember this eCreamery business on Shark Tank (I watch that show religiously–particularly for the newest food and health businesses. ;)) I especially like that they added your blog name to the front as the title. Talk about a selling point–I’d go for that. And I never turn down some ice cream for a treat in the evenings. I’ve been indulging in Pumpkin Spice ice cream lately because ’tis the season.
Erin says
I’m obsessed with Shark Tank! I have a few episodes I need to catch up on!
Ali says
Oh my goodness, customized ice cream?! Soooo sweet — literally 😉

Lauren says
Yum! Great flavor creation! These are such a great gift idea!
Erin says
It’s such good ice cream!
Alissa Apel says
That looks so good! I won ice cream once, and they sent it to me the same exact way.
Erin says
I love how secure it was packaged! And it tasted just like getting their ice cream from the store!
Michael says
The smile on your face says it all. I have no idea what kind of ice cream I’d make if asked. That had to be a remarkable experience.
Nicole says
Hi! They really have been a Shark Tank success! I want to try! Random question… do they have the nutrition info, etc on there? I’m confused how they get around the whole FDA thing making made to order ice cream!
Erin says
I’m not sure to be honest. It can’t hurt to call and ask!
