Ice Cream & Dairy
At Pecan Deluxe, ice cream and dairy inclusions are our legacy. In 1950, after years of selling his ice cream to the public, our founder began selling his ice cream ingredients and inclusions to other companies. This entrepreneurial effort exploded into a global enterprise, and today, we’re proud to continue this tradition of excellence in supplying premium, delicious ingredients for ice creams and dairy products of all kinds–hard packed ice creams, novelties, and yogurt mix-ins.
Whether you’re looking for cookie dough, candy clusters, brownie pieces, or praline nut meats, we are your source for premium ice cream and dairy inclusions. Want something customized? We’ll work with you to make it happen! We can tailor-make our products just for you, creating new flavors and textures to elevate your products from ordinary to extraordinary!

75 Years of Ice Cream Ingredient Innovations-Here’s the Scoop!
Ice cream will always hold a special place in people’s hearts because it’s more than just a treat. It’s tied to memories, emotions, and moments of joy. From childhood celebrations to quiet comfort on a tough day, ice cream connects us to feelings and emotions and that lasts a lifetime. We work hard to craft product solutions that resonate emotionally and deliver value that keep consumers returning for more. Our legacy is built on understanding ice cream and what it means to people.
With over 75 years in the business, we’ve pretty much seen (and solved) it all. From product launches to custom formulations, we’ve been the go-to inclusion experts for brands who care about flavor, texture, and food safety.
When it comes to ice cream ingredients, inclusions, mix-ins, variegates, ribbons and flavor bases you want a partner who knows the industry inside and out, delivers consistent quality, and makes the process smooth and stress-free. That’s where we come in.
Proven Expertise
Seventy-five years of experience means we bring a lot to the table, literally. We’ve perfected the art and science of inclusions for dairy and non-dairy ice creams and yogurts and are always exploring new ideas to keep your product offerings exciting and on trend. Whether you need classic favorites or something custom to your brand, we can help you make it happen.
Turning Trends into Treats: How We Create our Craveable Flavors
At the heart of our innovation process is a blend of market insight, real-time trend tracking, and decades of hands-on experience. We don’t just follow the food industry; we help shape it.
Every new inclusion we create starts with research. We keep a constant pulse on consumer behavior, emerging flavor profiles, and what’s trending in foodservice, retail, and social media. Our innovation team translates those insights into ideas and then our experienced research and development department brings them to life through testing, tweaking, and fine-tuning until the flavor and texture are just right.
With over 75 years in the industry, we know what works and why. We pair data with deep industry knowledge to create inclusions that aren’t just new, but delicious, scalable and keep your customers coming back for more.
