Ice cream flavours and names
Udders specialises in alcohol-flavoured ice cream, a niche in the Singaporean ice cream industry. [3][4] It also sells non-alcohol based flavours. In addition, it offers fried foods.[5] They also added Mao Shan Wang durian ice cream in 2008, which is a flavour unique to Singapore and which also happens to be their most popular flavour.[6] The chain encourages customers to suggest new flavours they would like, allowing them to participate in Udder’s ice-cream making process.[6] Udders caters ice cream and also organises ice cream-making classes.[7]
Operations
Udders currently has three outlets in Singapore. The franchise has announced plans to branch out into overseas territories, including Australia, China, and Indonesia.[4]
