Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams

Great ice cream! But warning: they place a piece of waffle cone on top. We had to ask them to make a new one for my celiac daughter. They happily did so.

Ice cream is clearly marked gluten free. Employee was so kind about double checking everything and gladly got a new ice cream scooper when I asked. I got the Gooey Butter Cake ice cream and I cannot believe it was gf! It was sooo good!

Been here twice now and indicated that I had a “severe gluten allergy” both times. Staff will go to the back to scoop from a fresh tub with a clean scoop per their allergy protocol. The first time, the staff member still asked me if I wanted the wafer at the end, and nearly put it on there. Great GF options, and my ice cream was safe both times, but a bit more education of the staff may be warranted. A lot of their cake flavors (gooey butter cake, birthday cake, wedding cake) are gluten free and oat free!

Update 12/2023: I’ve now come here often for the past few years and have never had a reaction from staff scooping from their allergy tubs, and they are always happy to do so even when there’s a line. Plus the seasonal flavors are so fun. I love this place!

You haven’t lived until you’ve tried the Gooey Butter Cake flavor!

A decent amount of their flavors with cake pieces in it are gluten free. Gooey Butter Cake and the Birthday Cake flavors are two great ones!!

This place is awesome! If you tell them you have an gluten allergy they will go in the back and scoop out the ice cream from a NEW bucket with a CLEAN SPOON! tons of options to choose from. (Try the goey butter cake!) They have the ingredients available in their website too. 😁

Celiac friendly?

Yes

The ice cream flavors are clearly marked with what is gluten-free and what is not. If you ask the worker to use a clean scoop with a new container from the back, they will be happy to do so. Just make sure they know not to put a piece of a cone on top of your bowl.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Separate allergy scoops! Theyll open a new tub for you and they have separate scoopers with different handles. Almost all the flavors are gluten free, but everything is very clearly marked for those that arent. Unfortunately no waffle cones for us - but still got to enjoy the waffle cone smells!

Celiac friendly?

Yes

All GF flavors were clearly marked. They were super friendly and got my ice cream from a new container with a clean scoop.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

All flavors are labeled with allergens or if GF. Ask for no waffle cone garnish.

When I explained my “severe gluten allergy” and chose my flavor, they went to the back and got out an untouched, full ice cream tub and a clean scoop. Their labels are clearly marked with gluten free and/or vegetarian/dairy free. Their gf options are numerous and delicious. Note: I have celiac and am very cautious, but I do not get noticeably sick after consuming gluten. This positive review is just based on their response to my restrictions.

Celiac friendly?

Yes

Came here on the e-ride app while vacationing in Carlsbad.

Super cute cosmic themed 🥰 ice cream 🍦 shop! Request a new scoop. The staff is super accommodating. All ice cream is labeled gf and or df! Lots of fun flavors to choose from.

They also have space dust - rice crisp topping that’s gf - definitely add it on!

This place is a chain that started in Ohio, it has lots of gf flavor options (even things that don’t seem like it, including gooey butter cake!) and good allergen procedures in place to avoid cross contamination. Staff knows what to do if you just tell them you have an allergy.

this ice cream shop has flavors that are gluten-free, dairy-free, and gluten-free and dairy free. They knew about allergens. They used a separate spoon, wash their hands and washed the spoon. They say that those ice creams are allergen only and they keep separate scoops for them.

if you didn’t feel safe with any potential cross contamination, they also sell ice cream by the pint that you can take home.
