Jeni Britton began making ice cream in 1996, as a 22-year-old art history student obsessed with scent. In her spare time, she studied perfuming and experimented with making her own essential oils. On a whim one day, she added cayenne to a tub of chocolate ice cream. When she tasted the combination of cold, sweet and spice, she knew she was going to make ice cream for the rest of her life. The rest is history.

Jeni Britton is an American ice cream maker and entrepreneur. A pioneer of the artisan ice cream movement, she introduced a modern, ingredient-driven style of ice cream making that has been widely emulated across the world but never duplicated.

In this episode, Jeni shares her journey of leaving art school to create an ice cream empire devoted to making the finest ice creams the world has ever known. From her tenacity to take creative risks to the grit and determination to navigate her business through a time of crisis, Jeni’s story is an inspiring testament to the power of perseverance, pushing boundaries, and staying true to your entrepreneurial vision.
