Fosselman’s Ice Cream Company

Review by: Roadfood Team

Fosselman’s Ice Cream Company is definitely worth a detour from anywhere in Los Angeles. Located in the San Gabriel Valley northeast of downtown, it is easily accessed from the 110, 710, and 10 freeways.  This is a great place to stop and grab a yummy cone.

What should I eat at Fosselman’s Ice Cream Company?

The ice cream factory is right next door, so you know it’s going to be fresh. Window posters tempt passersby with seasonal favorites; on this visit, it was fresh peach. We took one for the team and gave it a try, pairing it up with the lemon custard. Yum! Our favorite time to visit is Halloween, when they offer both black licorice and pumpkin. Those two flavors stirred together is unbelievable.

A little history of the company

Third-generation owners Chris and John Fosselman keep the 90-year-old business alive. They offer classic ice cream flavors and “old-time” candies and taffies for the older folks, plus they create a fun environment that the younger folks enjoy. It is common to see multi-generational families coming together to share a banana split or big dish of ice cream.
