Discover the Ice Cream Making Process First-Hand
At Turkey Hill Experience visitors walk through interactive exhibits that depict the ice cream-making process. Then become an ice cream maker for a day and create your own ice cream flavor!
This is not a guided tour of a working factory, but a series of fun, hands-on, interactive exhibits where you and your family can explore the ice cream-making process at your own pace. Visitors learn how ice cream and iced tea flavors are made in an enjoyable way. Youngsters can milk a mechanical cow and participate in the fun, hands-on exhibits. Plus, there are play opportunities designed just for kids.
And there are plenty of free samples of ice cream and iced tea to taste.
All exhibits and restrooms are wheelchair accessible.
Kids Can Create Their Own Ice Cream Flavor
At Turkey Hill Experience you can create your own ice cream flavor. You’ll follow the same steps Turkey Hill takes in their factory to try out new ice cream flavors.
You will start with vanilla ice cream, then add the flavoring you choose (and as much as you want) along with a variety of ingredients. And now you’ve created your very own ice cream flavor!
In the Turkey Hill Taste Lab, you can bring your new ice cream flavor to life and see how it tastes. Top it off with your favorite syrup and sample the results!
NOTE: A separate admission will be needed for the Taste Lab. Since seating in the Lab is limited, reservations are required.
Star in Your Own TV Commercial
After you have created your own ice cream flavor and packaging, you can also star in your own TV commercial promoting your new ice cream.
Afterward, you will be able to access your Create Your Own ice cream flavor, packaging, and commercial for up to 60 days.
