Q&A WITH JENI
WHAT INSPIRED YOU TO GET INTO THE ICE CREAM MAKING BUSINESS?
I was hooked the first time I made ice cream. I was an art student with a hobby of blending perfumes at home. One day I decided to add cayenne essential oil—which doesn’t have a scent, but packs a lot of heat—to a tub of chocolate ice cream. It was cold, and sweet, and spicy. It was a eureka moment. I knew in that instant that American ice cream had so much potential.
WHAT WAS ONE OF THE HARDEST PARTS OF STARTING YOUR BUSINESS?
At first I didn’t understand that entrepreneurship is a two-way conversation with customers. When I opened my first ice cream business, Scream, in the North Market, I thought of myself as some sort of ice cream artiste. I made the flavors I wanted to make each day, which was problematic. Like when someone fell in love with Salty Caramel and brought friends back to try it, I wouldn’t have it.

What Is Quinoa?
Quinoa (pronounced Keen-wah), is a gluten free “whole grain”, that cooks quickly.
Rosemary
Rosemary is a part of the mint family; hold the surprise because, along with rosemary, oregano, basil, lavender, and thyme, are apart of the same family. However, rosemary has more of warm, bitter flavor compared to mint being cooler. Often used in Italian dishes, rosemary adds a nice touch to sauces, soups and stews, and makes roasts to die for.
