Our LUV Story

This is our LUV story: Susanna and Ilya have been enjoying life together for over thirty years. Like so many, during that time they have lost and gained hundreds of pounds! In the 80’s they were sucked in the “fat is bad” theory and avoided high fat foods like the plague. The consequence was a boring sustenance, devoid of flavor and a waistline that rode a roller coaster!

Every once in a while they’d spoil themselves with a very special treat, a breakfast sandwich favorite made with real butter instead of a dehydrated chemical substitute. Those special buttered dishes were tenderly referred to as “made with luv!”

Now, years later, they’ve realized refined carbohydrates and sugar have been the culprit of the bulging belly all along. But, where was Ilya to find his favorite food, ice cream, without the added sugar?

Driven by the desire for quality ice cream and nondairy frozen desserts without added sugar or artificial chemical extenders, Susanna, a fitness professional and Ilya, a PhD research scientist, experimented for months on end. By the fall of 2012 they were making rich and creamy, all natural, gluten free, boldly flavored ice creams and nondairy desserts.

And so, responding to the popular demand of hundreds sampled, Luv Ice Cream was born…

Ingredients are methodically sourced to be devoid of added sugar or chemicals. Organic heavy cream, no milk, is used in the ice creams. Coconut milk is used to make the delicious nondairy flavors. And, all are gluten free, respecting others with Celiac Disease and gluten intolerances.

Hey! We also make our own chocolate chips, chocolate bars and baking mixes. Sugar-free, soy free, totally plant based and dairy free, dark, mysterious and yet not bitter. So dark they bite you back, 80% cacao in fact. Not in anger, but with LUV. Because we want to share our LUV of chocolate and not the extra stuff put in it!

Susanna and Ilya invite you to LOSE THE SUGAR AND FEEL THE LUV!.
