About Us
Our story
Several years ago, I began making ice cream at home and in the process enjoyed experimenting with various flavors. Our guests enjoyed the flavors I created, and the idea of a commercial product was born. I named the company and product ‘Neemo’s Exotic Ice Creams’ after my two daughters Nikita and Monica. My goal was to create a high-quality and unique product in a niche market. In April 2001, I launched the company, supplying wholesale ice cream to restaurants and for events. We started off with four flavors, our signature flavor which still remains the most popular – Saffron Silk (saffron ice cream mingled with rose and pistachios)
In August 2005, we opened Saffron Spot. The original idea was to have a retail location for our ice cream which was gaining popularity amongst our community. We added other dessert and snack items to our ice cream products. In the last two years, we have received favorable reviews in the press, and most importantly, from our customers. We are always in the process of continuous improvement – creating new flavors and menu items and enhancing existing ones to create a ‘tasteful’ experience. Our emphasis is always on creating a quality product, using high-quality ingredients and natural ingredients
