Meet the Makers
Nightingale Ice Cream Sandwiches was founded by husband + wife team, Hannah Pollack + Xavier Meers. A native of Belgium and 25-year veteran chef, Xavier came to the States to open and run restaurants and soon met Hannah, a former marine and chef herself. During a five-year restaurant run together, they created the first Nightingale ice cream sandwich as a restaurant dessert option. Soon after, they left the restaurant kitchen behind to fully embark on their new venture—one born from a love of their culinary crafts, classic desserts, and each other.
Nightingale Ice Cream Sandwiches are gourmet and handcrafted, so they cannot be compared to any other ice cream novelty. Each sandwich uses 14 percent butterfat ice cream, locally sourced inclusions, and hand mixed and made cookies. At first bite, you can taste the difference. Each bite brings memories of childhood, but with a sophistication in flavor that won’t be forgotten.
Handcrafted in Small Batches
Everything at Nightingale is made by hand from scratch. We use fresh local ingredients to create each delicious rendition of a classic dessert.
