Nightingale Ice Cream Sandwiches® Expands Its East Coast Presence
Nightingale Ice Cream Sandwiches®, a burgeoning company known for its premium, handcrafted frozen treats, is celebrating a major milestone as it extends its availability to select Whole Foods Market stores along the East Coast. Founded by chef Hannah Pollack and Belgian chef Xavier Meers, this women- and veteran-owned brand has captured the hearts of many since its inception in 2016. With a strong commitment to quality, the duo blends European craftsmanship with Southern charm, delivering an indulging experience to customers.
A Commitment to High Standards
Whole Foods Market is renowned for its dedication to promoting local and emerging consumer packaged good brands that comply with their strict ingredient guidelines. Nightingale Ice Cream Sandwiches excel with their commitment to quality, ensuring that all over 300 prohibited ingredients—such as partially hydrogenated oils, artificial sweeteners, and synthetic colors—are absent from their products.
Daniela D'Ambrosio, the Forager for Local and Emerging Brands at Whole Foods Market, expresses her enthusiasm, stating, "Nightingale Ice Cream sandwiches combine premium ice cream and crunchy cookies to create crave-worthy treats. I first tasted this brand when seeking a delight for my toddler, and after one bite, I was compelled to return and buy another!"
The Ultimate Sweet Treat
Crafted with 14% butterfat ice cream and freshly baked cookies, along with nut-free ingredients and homemade inclusions, Nightingale Ice Cream Sandwiches redefines the notion of frozen indulgence. The brand made its debut with eight delicious flavors: Banana Pudding, Cookie Monster, Chocolate Blackout, Strawberry Shortcake, Birthday Cake, Mocha Brownie, Key Lime Pie, and Classic. Each flavor offers a unique taste, inviting customers on a delightful journey through nostalgic flavors elevated to gourmet standards.
In January 2025, the partnership with Whole Foods Market commenced, bringing these exquisite ice cream sandwiches to a wider audience. Hannah Pollack states, "From the very beginning, our vision has been to share high-quality, chef-driven ice cream sandwiches with more people, and Whole Foods Market has always been an integral part of that dream."
Demand for these frozen delights is rapidly increasing, and the expansion into Whole Foods Market is merely the latest chapter in their growing story. Nightingale Ice Cream Sandwiches is now found in over 4,500 grocery stores across the nation, including large chains like Kroger, The Fresh Market, and Harris Teeter.
A Growing Ice Cream Empire
Nightingale's journey started in a now-closed restaurant pool hall in Richmond, Virginia. Since then, the company has experienced remarkable growth, breaking into major retailers and restaurants across the country. Each batch of ice cream sandwiches is handcrafted to ensure the highest quality, evoking the flavors of childhood while maintaining a level of sophistication that appeals to adult consumers. The brand's commitment to joyful indulgence and unparalleled taste sets it apart in the competitive market of frozen desserts.
For those seeking a delicious treat that aligns with their dietary values, Nightingale Ice Cream Sandwiches offers an irresistible option that proudly stays true to its ingredients and craftsmanship. As the company continues to expand, it remains dedicated to providing customers with the ultimate sweet experience, one ice cream sandwich at a time.
