Crème de Liqueur

Crème de Liqueur is a specialty frozen dessert brand that produces liquor-infused frozen custard for adult consumers. Founded by co-founders Elizabeth and Nisreen, the Wisconsin-based company was built on the concept of elevating everyday moments through indulgent, spirits-forward frozen treats. The brand distinguishes itself by combining rich, ultra-creamy frozen custard with real craft spirits, resulting in a product line that sits at 2% ABV — offering a light yet flavorful boozy experience in every pint.

The company's product lineup includes a variety of flavors that pair frozen custard bases with locally sourced craft spirits. Notable flavors include Chocolate Brownie Bourbon, Vanilla Bean Bourbon, Pistachio Amaretto, Rum Soaked Maple Walnut, Margarita Sorbet, Espresso Martini, and Vanilla Bean Horchata, among others. Each flavor is designed to highlight the nuanced taste profile of the specific liquor used, with spirits sourced from regional and small-batch craft distillers. Mix-ins and additional ingredients are also sourced locally whenever possible, reinforcing the brand's commitment to regional partnerships.

Crème de Liqueur products are sold direct-to-consumer via online shipping, delivered on dry ice and packaged in gift-ready presentation. The company also sells through select local retail outlets, farmers markets, and specialty food events, with documented retail presence at locations such as Wilson Farms and appearances at regional markets in states including Wisconsin and Massachusetts. Shipping is available nationwide with free delivery on orders over $100.

The brand targets adult consumers seeking premium, artisan frozen dessert experiences, positioning its products as suitable for gifting, entertaining, date nights, and personal indulgence. Products are marketed as adults-only (21+) and appeal to consumers who appreciate craft spirits and premium ice cream in equal measure. The company has received media coverage from outlets including Milwaukee Magazine and South Shore Home, Life & Style, affirming its standing as a noteworthy player in the premium novelty frozen dessert segment.

Crème de Liqueur's go-to-market approach emphasizes the Build-A-Box customization model, allowing customers to select three to six pints of their preferred flavors or choose from curated thematic collections. The brand's founding story and local sourcing philosophy give it strong regional identity and differentiation within the adult frozen novelty category.
