The U.S. ice cream parlors market is mainly driven by the demand for premium ice creams. According to the IDFA, in 2022, the ice cream industry had a USD 13.1 billion impact on the U.S. economy. Ice cream parlors generate maximum revenue from March through July, as these months are the busiest for ice cream production in the U.S.

While regular ice creams are still the most consumed ice creams in the U.S., there is an increasing trend of non-dairy ice creams and plant-based/vegan ice creams. Furthermore, increasing health consciousness among consumers in the U.S. has led them to opt for ice creams with low-calorie and no added sugar claims.

Ice cream chains in the U.S. are responding to the demand for dairy-free ice creams through new product launches. For instance, in April 2021, Baskin Robbins launched an oat milk-based, Non-Dairy Strawberry Streusel ice cream in the U.S. The company claimed that it resembles dairy ice creams in terms of texture and taste.
