Get the Scoop on Cockeye Creamery

Thanks for stopping by to watch our interview with Kent State alumnus, Max Hoover, owner of Cockeye Creamery in Warren, Ohio. Max focuses on creating unique flavors and recipes that showcase local and often overlooked ingredients.

In the video, Max talks about the science behind ice cream, what making a difference in his family’s community means to him and how Kent State helped him on his journey. The video also offers a look at the limited-time-only, super-premium flavor he created that’s reminiscent of his time in Kent, aptly named “Black Squirrel.” This combination of espresso ice cream, caramel streak and cinnamon streusel has been a huge hit! The week they launched Black Squirrel, they sold more than 18 gallons! Max generously donated 15% of Black Squirrel proceeds from that week to The Campus Kitchen at Kent State University, which provides nutritious food and meals each week for students and Portage County community members struggling with food insecurity. This is a cause close to his heart, so if you weren’t able to visit Cockeye Creamery during this promotion, please consider making your own donation to The Campus Kitchen today.

And there’s still time to try Black Squirrel! Since launch week, another 20 gallons  has been sold – it’s so popular they plan to continue to offer the flavor throughout summer 2021! A big thanks to Max for sharing his story, giving back and making fantastic, unique ice cream for all to enjoy!
