What is cookie butter?

Meet your new favorite condiment: cookie butter! Cookie Butter is made by blending spiced cookies —often speculoos— into a smooth, spreadable butter that tastes like caramel, cinnamon, and brown sugar had a love affair. Imagine the cozy crunch of a cookie transformed into something creamy, dreamy, and ready to swirl into ice cream.

What are speculoos cookies?

Speculoos are crisp, caramelized cookies that are known for their deep spice blend: cinnamon, nutmeg, cloves, and a hint of ginger. The result is a cookie with a comforting spice and a buttery snap. Like potato chips, it's impossible to eat just one.

The best ingredient ever: brown sugar

Every bite of our Italian Butter Cookie ice cream owes its golden warmth to brown sugar—the quiet hero behind both speculoos cookies and cookie butter. It's what gives them that deep, caramelized sweetness and gentle molasses richness that feels like a hug. Brown sugar doesn't just sweeten; it transforms, lending each spoonful a buttery glow and that unmistakable note of "just one more bite."
