About Laloo's
Laloo's was founded on a vision to create a creamy, luxury ice cream using all natural premium ingredients. This includes using goat's milk, which is considered by many to be a perfect food due to its chemical structure. Their delicious ice cream is low-fat, low-cal, low in lactose and gluten free, with no growth hormones of artificial additives.
The values advanced by B Lab and B Corporations are ones that are important to us and also to our stakeholders. By becoming a B Corporation, we are better able to broadcast our commitment to those values and hopefully set an example of social and environmental responsibility in our community.
At Laloo's they believe that the quality of food and enjoyment of life unite. They let their goats play on 350 acres of rolling hills in Sonoma County, California, where they graze on green grass and thistle berry in the warm Pacific breeze. It's the good life. And the good life makes magical ice cream that's naturally low fat, lactose friendlyTM and spoon-licking delicious to the last scoop. They make innovative products using goat's milk that are yummy, nutritious, fun and sustainably produced while making small but continuous positive influences on the planet and social culture
The Change We Seek®
