Artisan Ice Cream Co-Packing, Wholesale, & D2C Fulfillment
At Sugar Lab of Colorado, we began as artisan ice cream makers, handcrafting each batch with care. As our business grew, we struggled to find a co-packing partner that met our needs. Most required large minimum orders that didn’t fit our production model.
Instead of compromising, we built our own path. After an extensive search, we found a facility with the perfect infrastructure to support small-batch and wholesale ice cream production. We transformed it into a state-of-the-art ice cream factory, designed to help growing brands bring their unique flavors to market.
Today, we specialize in wholesale ice cream production, private label manufacturing, and custom co-packing solutions. With flexible minimums that make scaling easier for businesses like yours. Whether you need small-batch artisan production or nationwide 3PL fulfillment, we’re here to streamline the process, all under one roof.
We are also kosher certified, which means your products can meet dietary and market requirements for kosher labeling, expanding your potential customer base and retail reach.
At Sugar Lab of Colorado, we’re more than just a co-packer. We are ice cream artisans at heart. While many co-packers focus on mass production, we stay true to the small-batch process, making our ice creams in precisely 13-quart batches to preserve the quality and craftsmanship that define artisan ice cream.
Beyond ice cream production, we also create our own inclusions in-house, from specialty cookies and hand-burnt caramel to fresh strawberry sauces and mix-ins. This means that when you partner with us, you’re not just outsourcing production. You’re gaining access to a full-service ice cream kitchen that can scale your unique flavors while maintaining the handcrafted touch.
We understand the challenges of scaling an artisan ice cream business, and our facility is designed to help brands grow without sacrificing quality. Whether you’re an independent ice cream maker looking for a reliable co-packer or a business seeking premium ice cream production, we are committed to delivering exceptional products, unmatched craftsmanship, scalable solutions, and a kosher-certified facility you can trust.
At Sugar Lab of Colorado, we offer flexible co-packing solutions designed to scale with your business. Whether you need a full-service partner to handle ingredients, production, and distribution or simply need manufacturing support, we provide tailored solutions to fit your needs.

A Quick Note on Ice Cream Base
We don’t produce ice cream mix in-house. Most of our partners either supply their own base or work with a dairy partner to create one. If you're just starting out and need guidance, we’re happy to point you in the right direction.
Once your mix is ready, we take it from there. We infuse it with custom flavors, create in-house inclusions like cookies, caramel, and sauces, and transform it into a finished ice cream product that’s ready to ship.
Nationwide Distribution Made Simple
Shipping frozen products can be complex, but with our expertise, your ice cream is stored and shipped using industry-best practices to reach customers, retailers, and distributors efficiently. Whether you're selling DTC, wholesale, or through major distribution centers, we ensure your products arrive on time and in perfect condition.
Our facility is FDA-certified and kosher-certified. We focus on flavoring, producing, packaging, and distributing ice cream products while ensuring they meet regulatory and quality standards every step of the way.
If you're looking for a trusted co-packing partner that can produce, store, and distribute your ice cream, we’d love to chat.
