<p>No matter where you are on Long Island, you&#39;re never far from homemade ice cream. Here&#39;s a sampling of independent shops that make it.</p>

 <p>Frozen custard is a subset of ice cream. Like all ice cream, it must contain a minimum of 10% fat (which distinguishes it from soft serve, which has no legal definition) but it also must contain egg yolks. Traditionally, it is made fresh daily, served at a lower temperature — to highlight its creamy texture — and is hand scooped. And you can experience all of this at Abbott’s Frozen Custard, the <a href="https://www.newsday.com/lifestyle/restaurants/abbotts-frozen-custard-lindenhurst-fjfja05g">only Long Island outpost</a> of a Rochester, New York-based national chain with more than 40 locations. Abbotts always scoops vanilla, chocolate and chocolate almond as well as rotating flavors such as black raspberry and butter pecan. Have yours in a cup, cone or waffle cone, blended into a milkshake or malted, or anchoring a sundae or split topped with nuts, fruit, candies and / or hot fudge, caramel, butterscotch, marshmallow, peanut butter or fruit sauces.&nbsp;</p>

 <p>The unassuming shop is a throwback to when luncheonettes made their own ice cream, sauces and syrups as well as candies and molded chocolates. That blue-collar spirit still stands at the almost century-old shop, which has been run by Phillip Zouras and his family since 1974. He not only makes his own ice cream, but also his own syrups and chocolate treats sold at the front of the store. The chocolate ice cream and chocolate syrup make for outstanding malteds and sodas. Cash only.</p>

 <p>The Ice Cream Chick, which succeeds Herrell's Ice Cream, is descended from Long Island ice cream royalty. Owner Christine Cairo is a veteran of Krisch’s in Massapequa (which her brother owns) and is married to Paul Cairo (another Krisch’s alum who now owns Strong Island Ice Cream in Nesconset). She’s found a less-traditional ice cream culture in Huntington than she knew in Massapequa. Accordingly, she has introduced Twinkie (pound cake and pools of marshmallow cr&egrave;me) and chocolate mint cream (with green-hued buttercream and crushed Andes chocolate mints). The only holdovers from Herrell’s are the beloved chocolate whipped cream and the genuine chocolate (not chocolate-flavored) Guittard sprinkles. One item lifted directly from Krisch’s is the monumental “kitchen sink” sundae containing 10 ice creams, three toppings, two bananas, waffle wedges, whipped cream, sprinkles and cherries.</p>

 <p>The successor to Granny’s Ice Cream in Commack is owned by Rob McCue, a veteran chef whose innovative flavors include blueberry-lavender, lemon-poppyseed and Mexican hot chocolate (with chilies and cinnamon). It’s not only McCue’s imagination that runs wild, it’s his subconscious.&nbsp;This was the case with strawberry-Oreo with marshmallow swirl, whereas pecan-maple-bacon was the product of his waking mind. Also on offer are vegan “ice cream”; Dole Whip, the cult pineapple-flavored soft-serve; handmade chocolates; and custom ice cream cakes. In 2025, a Greenlawn location made its debut.</p>

 <p>Itgen's serves what may be Long Island's best hot fudge. It's deep, dark and not too sweet, and, as is proper for hot fudge, it solidifies upon contact with ice cream. This is not to slight the homemade ice cream, hand-whipped cream or old-fashioned desserts such as the Flat Car (pound cake, ice cream, hot fudge and whipped cream) and the Park Avenue (chocolate and lemon ice creams, sliced bananas, marshmallow sauce and whipped cream). In 2018, ownership passed from the Itgen family to Grace Zhao and Yan Zhang, who have ever so slightly modernized the dining room but haven’t changed the food one bit.</p>

 <p>It’s truly a family affair at Mann’s Homemade Ice Cream in Amityville. The shop, owned by Linda and Eric Mann, is a labor of love whose labor depends on the couple, their children and, occasionally, Eric’s retired parents, plus a crew of local kids who have become like family. Flavors are inspired by trends (the Dubai sundae is flying out of the store), by travels (a recent trip to Aruba resulted in butterscotch-rum-pineapple “Aruba wedding cake” ice cream), by staff contributions (s’mores in under development) and by recipes that the Mann family had in the vaults such as the rum raisin and salted caramel. In addition to cups, cones, sundaes and shakes, the ice cream finds itself into nachos made from waffle wafers and big, fat ice cream sandwiches bookended by homemade cookies. There are also chocolates and coffee drinks made with Hamptons Coffee.</p>
