Royal Ice Cream History
|
Since 1926, Royal Ice Cream has been a family owned manufacturer
of quality ice cream desserts. For three generations, the Orfitelli
family has taken great pride in producing the absolute finest, wholesome
ice cream products at reasonable prices.
Founded by Michael A. Orfitelli, Sr., an Italian immigrant, he
forged an honorable reputation of producing Italian ice cream desserts
with an American flare.

Michael Jr. and Harold Orfitelli headed up the next generation
at Royal Ice Cream. Harold took care of the production and quality
manufacturing while Mike Jr. took charge of sales, deliveries and
customer satisfaction. Additional ice cream specialties were added
to the product line, as well as pints, half gallons, novelties,
such as popsicles, ice cream sandwiches, dixie cups, and chocolate-covered
bars.
|
 |
By the late 60's and early 70's, the family realized that it's future
was more directed in ice cream specialties. The novelties were dropped
and more attention was paid to custom, Italian style desserts. Today
the company is strictly ice cream specialties, ice cream cakes, 2.5
gallon bulk ice cream and private label for other companies. |
| Since 1987, Harold's son James Orfitelli has been operating the
business, making further changes and additions to its line of desserts.
James expanded more into distributors, branching out into other states
such as NY, NJ, RI, and ME. |

 |
Seeing that more area was being covered with this distributor
network, it was time for a change and in 1998, that change occurred
at the Royal Ice Cream Company. Royal sold its trucks and transitioned
its delivery customers over to an area distributor.
Today, all of Royal's ice cream products are delivered through
such distributors and food service companies. |
