Join Snow Crane founder Takeshi Nishikawa at Rice Market for a one-day exploration of how dairy shapes exceptional ice cream.
This special chef-led tasting workshop invites guests into the product development process behind Snow Crane, featuring four local Maryland dairies spun live on-site into fresh ice cream.
Through side-by-side tasting, guests will experience how each dairy influences texture, richness, sweetness, and finish, while learning how sourcing decisions directly impact the final product.
Each tasting is frozen on site and served at peak freshness for immediate comparison.
