Salt & Straw

Salt & Straw is an artisanal ice cream company based in Portland, Oregon. The company was launched in 2011 by cousins Kim and Tyler Malek.[1]

Company history

Salt & Straw began as a food cart on Alberta Street, Portland, Oregon and three months later the company opened its first brick-and-mortar location. Since opening in 2011, Salt & Straw has opened three other locations in Portland and offers a home delivery service throughout the US.[2] In order to ship ice cream nationwide delivery, the company packs its ice cream in dry ice and kraft paper.[3] Salt & Straw has locations in Portland, Oregon and Los Angeles, CA.[4]

List of flavors

Since opening, Salt & Straw has gained national media attention for its exotic ice cream flavors. Standout flavors, such as Bone Marrow with Bourbon Smoked Cherries and Arbequina Olive Oil, have served as some of the main reasons Salt and Straw has been included on lists of America's best ice cream.[5][6][7][8][9] Flavors offered at the ice cream shop vary depending on the seasons and ingredient availability, as all main ingredients are locally sourced. A list of regular Salt and Straw flavors[10] follows:

  • Double fold vanilla
  • Pear and blue cheese
  • Sea salt and caramel ribbons
  • Chocolate and gooey brownies
  • Strawberry balsamic and black pepper
  • Coffee and bourbon
  • Almond brittle and salted ganache
  • Freckled woodblock chocolate

In 2015, Salt and Straw partnered each shop with different elementary schools to create flavors designed by children. Stop, Guac & Roll (avocado-vanilla ice cream with cinnamon-sugar-dusted fried tortillas) and Honey Bear (vanilla custard with chocolate honeycomb candy and edible glitter) were two of the flavors created.[11]
