Culver's Ice Cream Menu With Prices & Calories
Last updated: January 2026 · prices vary by location
Here's the thing most people don't realize: Culver's doesn't actually serve ice cream. What you're getting is fresh frozen custard, and once you know the difference, you can't unknow it. It's made in small batches all day long, it's got real egg yolks in it, and it's churned with way less air than regular ice cream — so it comes out denser, silkier, and richer on the spoon. People still call it "Culver's ice cream" out of habit, and that's fine, but the custard is the reason this dessert menu has such a loyal following.
This page covers the whole sweet side of the menu: the rotating custard flavors you can get as a scoop, cone or dish, plus the treats built on top of that custard — Concrete Mixers, shakes, malts, sundaes and floats. Prices below are approximate and vary by location, since each restaurant is independently owned.
Culver's Frozen Custard Flavors (Scoops, Cones & Dishes)
Culver's keeps a big roster of signature custard flavors, and a different one gets featured as the Flavor of the Day at each store. You can order any available flavor as a scoop in a dish or on a cone — the price comes from the size you pick, not the flavor itself. So whether you want plain Vanilla or something loaded like Caramel Fudge Cookie Dough, a single scoop costs the same.
Quick honesty note on calories: because flavors rotate and mix-ins differ, Culver's doesn't publish a fixed calorie count for every single flavor. As a rough guide, a single scoop dish runs around 300–400 calories, and the richer flavors with caramel, fudge or candy pieces land toward the higher end. Check the in-store nutrition info for the exact flavor you're after.

Culver's Ice Cream Treats — Concrete Mixers, Shakes, Sundaes & Floats
This is where the custard really shows off. The Concrete Mixer is the headliner — they blend your custard with whatever mix-ins you want until it's so thick it won't pour out of the cup. Then there are shakes and malts if you want it drinkable, sundaes if you want it loaded with toppings, and floats if you want it with soda over the top.

What Makes Culver's Custard Different From Ice Cream
A few things set it apart, and they're not marketing fluff — they're actual recipe and process differences:
- It's made fresh in small batches throughout the day instead of sitting frozen for weeks.
- It uses real egg yolks, which is what gives custard its signature creamy body.
- It's churned with less air (lower "overrun"), so each spoonful is denser.
- It's served a touch warmer than hard ice cream, so the flavor reads fuller and it doesn't numb your tongue.
Put those together and you get a dessert that tastes richer and smoother than a standard scoop shop.
Best Culver's Desserts to Try First
If you're standing at the counter and can't decide, these are the safe bets:
- Concrete Mixer — pick any mix-ins; it's the full custard experience and the thickest thing on the menu.
- Turtle Sundae — caramel, chocolate and pecans over vanilla custard, a classic for a reason.
- Caramel Fudge Cookie Dough — the flavor fans tend to rank number one, sweet and salty at the same time.
- OREO Cookie Cheesecake — for the cookies-and-cream crowd.
- Pumpkin Spice Shake — grab it in fall before it disappears.
How to Pick the Right Treat
- Want something light? A single scoop dish keeps it simple and small.
- Want it rich and thick? Go Concrete Mixer.
- Like variety? Ask what the Flavor of the Day is — it changes daily.
- Want something refreshing instead of heavy? A float gives you custard plus fizzy soda.
- Taking it home? Grab a handpacked pint of vanilla or chocolate.
