Since
Handcrafted with love
Kristlyn's Ice Cream was born from a simple belief: that the best ice cream comes from real ingredients, patient craftsmanship, and a genuine love for the art. Located in the heart of Shannon, North Carolina, we've been serving our community with handcrafted scoops that celebrate both tradition and innovation.
Every batch is made fresh daily in our shop. We source local dairy, partner with regional farms for our fruits, and experiment with bold flavor combinations that surprise and delight. Whether you're craving a classic vanilla bean or something more adventurous, there's always a new story waiting to be tasted.

From timeless classics to bold new creations, each flavor is crafted with intention and served with pride.
Real vanilla beans from Madagascar, slow-steeped for hours. Rich, creamy, and beautifully simple.
Double-dark Belgian chocolate, melted and folded into a velvety base. For the serious chocolate lover.
Fresh local strawberries paired with garden-fresh basil. A bright, herbaceous twist on summer.
Local wildflower honey swirled with a hint of lavender. Delicate, floral, and deeply satisfying.
Fresh mint from our garden, blended with crunchy peppermint chunks. Cool, crisp, and addictive.
Butter-rich caramel ribboned with flaky sea salt. Sweet, salty, and endlessly satisfying.
