When the undisputed queen of craft ice cream, Dana Cree (PCI), joins forces with CIMA’s Executive Chef Gee Cuyugan, the result is pure, scoopable magic. This exclusive Strawberry Lemon Verbena Swirl is a masterclass in collaboration, marrying Dana’s legendary ice cream wizardry with Chef Gee’s vibrant, chef-driven approach to flavor.
The Philosophy: Rooted in Community & Soil
At its core, this pint is the edible translation of CIMA’s dedicated farm-to-table and community-based mission. Chef Gee has built a culinary program centered on hyper-local sourcing, fostering direct relationships with regional Midwest farmers to capture ingredients at the absolute peak of their season.
This isn't just a dessert; it’s an appreciation of the season and a handshake with local growers. By centering the recipe on fresh, seasonal botanicals and sun-ripened fruit, this partnership celebrates the community, honors sustainable agriculture, and brings the spirit of the local farmers' market straight to your spoon.
