Our Ice Cream

Lick Me™ is a premium consumer brand of ice cream produced by the Gourmet Ice Cream Factory in Camberwell, Melbourne, Victoria. Lick Me™ represents the essence of a traditional European ice cream and sorbet recipes that have been nurtured by three generations. This cultural inheritance has resulted in the creation of the most natural and exclusive ice cream in Australia.

Our ice cream and sorbet flavours have won many gold medals at the Dairy Industry Association National Awards as well as Dairy Australia’s “Grand Dairy Awards.” We are committed to only using natural products (no artificial colours or artificial flavours) and the use of only the freshest ingredients, The Gourmet Ice Cream Factory is proud to promote its exclusive brand.

All of our ice cream is made gluten free, however we do add Oreo cookies to our Cookies & Cream flavour.

Our ice cream is made the old fashioned way – full cream milk, cream and real, natural ingredients. For example we use real strawberries in our strawberry ice cream and real bananas in our banana ice cream. Not only does this make our ice cream tastier, but it contributes to making it more allergy tolerant for many people with different intolerances. You can definitely taste the difference.
