Here in Oregon, we don’t mess around when it comes to ice cream. From rich, creamy classics to organic favorites and handmade sandwiches, our state is home to some seriously cool creameries—and the best part? You don’t have to travel far to taste them.

Whether you’re stocking up for a sunny weekend or just need a midweek pick-me-up, check out these local favorites right here at Market of Choice:

Tillamook: The Creamery That Does It All

Tillamook is a name you know and trust—and for good reason. This iconic creamery has been crafting extra-creamy ice cream for over a century. With crowd-pleasers like Oregon Dark Cherry, Chocolate Peanut Butter, and the always-a-hit Marionberry Pie, there’s a flavor for every craving.

Alden’s Organic: Clean, Creamy, and Totally Scoopable

Looking for something a little more natural? Alden’s Organic, based in Eugene, is your go-to for organic ice cream made without the junk. Every scoop is certified organic, and they even offer dairy-free options, as well as frozen Greek yogurt bars, that don’t skimp on flavor.

From Old-Fashioned Vanilla to Cookies & Cream, Alden’s proves you don’t need artificial anything to make ice cream that hits the spot.

Umpqua Dairy: Oregon Tradition in Every Scoop

Umpqua Dairy has been making ice cream in Southern Oregon since 1931—and it shows. These time-tested recipes deliver classic, comforting flavors with a seriously, creamy texture that’s hard to beat. And they have the awards to prove it.

Favorites like Butter Pecan, Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, and Rocky Road feel like a throwback to simpler times (in the best way). They may be an Oregon classic, but Umpqua isn’t stuck in the past, either. Innovative flavors like Lemon Bar Ice Cream (great for summer) and Caramel Cold Brew, ensure this classic brand stays fresh and in-demand. Grab a tub and share the tradition with your crew.

Ruby Jewel: The Ice Cream Sandwich, Upgraded

Think ice cream sandwiches are just for kids? Think again. Ruby Jewel, based in Portland, takes the humble sandwich to gourmet heights. Their handmade combos feature soft, chewy cookies filled with ultra-rich ice cream in standout flavors like Lemon Honey Lavender and Fresh Mint Chocolate Chip.

Perfect for backyard BBQs, road trip snacks—or let’s be honest—eating two in one sitting on your couch.

Bontà Gelato: An Adventure in Every Scoop

Every batch of Bontà gelato is whipped up with love—and some seriously fresh, local ingredients in Bend. We’re talking creamy Oregon milk, fancy mountain hazelnuts, and all the good stuff from nearby farms and makers. The flavors? Oh, they slap. Think Tumalo Lavender & Honey, bold, Mayan Chocolate, and seasonal hits like Strawberry Coconut. Basically, it’s local goodness in a dish.
