 The Texas Historical Commission granted Blue Bell Creameries a Texas Historical Marker in recognition of the company's 100 years in business. A special dedication ceremony was held at Blue Bell Creameries in Brenham, Texas, in February 2007 to unveil the company's Texas Historical Marker.
It was a hot day late in August of 1907 when the Brenham Creamery Company opened its doors. In the beginning they only made butter, but by 1911, they made a gallon or two of ice cream a day. They packed it in a large wooden tub with ice and salt and delivered it by horse and wagon to a few of their friends and neighbors around Brenham. Their ice cream had to be pretty special back then because everybody made their own. Naturally, they used the very best ingredients by buying their milk, cream, eggs, and fruits fresh from the farmers around Brenham. Then they mixed in their secret way of making homemade ice cream.
You know how small towns are given to gossip, so it didn't take long before word got around just how really good this ice cream was. Some folks said they made the best ice cream in these parts, maybe the whole country. The little creamery really began to grow when they traded their horse and wagon for a horseless carriage in the late 1920's. By 1930, they had become Blue Bell Creameries and were on their way to greatness.
In the past 91 years, a lot has changed at Blue Bell Creameries, but the quality of their ice cream hasn't changed one bit. It's still the best in the country!! They know because they eat all they can and sell the rest.
If you live in the red area, you can purchase Blue Bell in your store. If you live
outside this area, then Blue Bell is not available locally to you.
