NARRATOR: At Blue Bell, we make what some say is the best ice cream in the country.<\/p>\n
With upgraded facilities and best-in-class processes, our production is an industry leader too. (visual of modern, clean production area)<\/p>\n
Join us for a quick tour and see why, at Blue Bell, we love what we do. <\/p>\n
NARRATOR or TEXT: 4 a.m. – Our days start early when the freshest milk is delivered from nearby dairy farms and stored in our refrigerated silos.<\/p>\n
4:30 a.m.- We begin testing to make sure the production area is clean and safe. <\/p>\n
Testing continues throughout the day. Samples are analyzed by an independent, outside lab.<\/p>\n
6 a.m. – Our production employees arrive and begin their own extensive cleaning and sanitation process.<\/p>\n
7 a.m. – NOW we get to make ice cream!<\/p>\n
The farm-fresh milk is blended together with cream, condensed milk, and other ingredients to produce our ice cream base. <\/p>\n
It travels through a homogenization system to create a smooth, rich mix, then through a system which heats the mix to 185 degrees for exactly 25 seconds to pasteurize it.<\/p>\n
Then, it\u2019s immediately cooled to 40 degrees and placed in holding tanks, where some of your favorite flavors like mint and strawberry are added.<\/p>\n
The ice cream is whipped and cooled even further to 22 degrees.<\/p>\n
Delicious, pre-tested ingredients like fruit, nuts, candy or cookies are added to the ice cream to create some customer favorites like Cookie Two Step.<\/p>\n
The mix flows into the filling station, where half gallons are filled with ice cream. <\/p>\n
The ice cream is carried on a conveyor belt to the blast freezer \u2013 which is REALLY freezing at -40 degrees with a wind chill of -100. <\/p>\n
When all the ice cream is made, our employees again clean and sterilize the equipment, so we are ready to make ice cream the next day. <\/p>\n
The ice cream is moved into cold storage, where it is held until tests confirm it is safe. <\/p>\n
NARRATOR: Then it\u2019s loaded onto a Blue Bell truck…and hand-delivered from our creamery…to your store…for you and your family to enjoy.
