Specialty Suppliers
Ometepe Coffee
Since 1990, the Bainbridge Ometepe Sister Islands Association (BOSIA) has imported fine organic coffee from our sister island of Ometepe in Nicaragua. It is called Cafe Oro de Ometepe. With the proceeds from the sale of this coffee, BOSIA has jointly created schools and water systems, sponsored scholarships for continuing education of students on Ometepe and helped improve health and education there.
The Vanilla.COMpany
We choose to use vanilla from the Vanilla.COMpany. These high quality beans are organic, fair trade and naturally dried in the sun. Patricia Rain, owner of Vanilla.COMpany, is a woman with much compassion for the people who harvest vanilla throughout the tropical band. We purchase Patricia's vanilla because of her commitment to sustainable production of organic tropical commodities and her strong advocacy of fair trade.
Scharffen Berger Chocolate
Scharffen Berger is the preferred chocolate at Cream of the Crop Ice Cream. Their product is made from the raw cacao bean and has excellent flavor. This gourmet chocolate comes in many varieties and is ideal for making our outstanding chocolate ice creams.
Lochmead Farms
All of the ice cream flavors start with a mix made at Oregon's Lochmead Dairy. We choose Lochmead because they care about quality. Their cows are vegetarian fed and Lochmead keeps their closed herd free of bovine growth hormones. Their products do not contain any artificial preservatives or flavoring. It's simply natural and noticeably superior.
Stalk Market Earth Friendly Products
If your venue required serving bowls, Cream of the Crop Ice Cream will provide bowls from Stalk Market. These products are made from 100% biodegradable, compostable sugar cane fiber.
