Dairy-Free Ice Cream: How Does It Work?
Good news for lactose-intolerant and vegan dessert lovers — you can still enjoy ice cream without dairy! Today’s dairy-free options are made using plant-based milks like:
- Almond milk
- Coconut milk
- Oat milk
- Cashew milk
These bases are blended with natural fats and stabilizers to mimic the creamy texture of traditional ice cream. They’re just as delicious — and often lower in saturated fat.
Whether you eat dairy or not, there's a frozen treat out there for everyone!

The Science Behind Brain Freeze
Ever take a big bite of ice cream and suddenly feel a sharp headache? That’s called brain freeze (or sphenopalatine ganglioneuralgia — if you're feeling fancy).
It happens when something cold touches the roof of your mouth, causing blood vessels in your head to constrict and then quickly expand. This sudden change triggers pain signals that your brain interprets as coming from your forehead.
Pro Tip: Press your tongue to the roof of your mouth to warm it up and stop the freeze!

More Than a Business—A Local Tradition
Being known as “the ice cream family” isn’t something that happens overnight. It comes from years of showing up, serving the community, and creating memories—like tossing candy at the Dixon Mayfair Parade.
Those moments are part of the story, and they continue to inspire everything Julz Ice Cream and Candies does today.
