Ice cream flavours and names

Udders specialises in alcohol-flavoured ice cream, a niche in the Singaporean ice cream industry. [3][4] It also sells non-alcohol based flavours. In addition, it offers fried foods.[5] They also added Mao Shan Wang durian ice cream in 2008, which is a flavour unique to Singapore and which also happens to be their most popular flavour.[6] The chain encourages customers to suggest new flavours they would like, allowing them to participate in Udder’s ice-cream making process.[6] Udders caters ice cream and also organises ice cream-making classes.[7]


The Udder Pancake

The company opened a new café, The Udder Pancake, in November 2014.[8] The café serves pancakes with savoury meats and condiments.[9]

Services

The company organises ice cream-making workshops and provides ice cream-catering services.[10][11]

Operations

Udders currently has three outlets in Singapore. The franchise has announced plans to branch out into overseas territories, including Australia, China, and Indonesia.[4]
