Stewart Tower Dairy’s delicious delights
Stewart Tower Dairy makes wonderful gelato-style dairy ice cream on its farm in Stanley in the heart of beautiful Perthshire. Italian-style gelato is how ice cream is meant to be made, it takes a bit more work but it’s well worth it, and Stewart Tower Dairy thinks you’ll agree.
So many modern ice creams use vegetable fat and bulking agents because they’re cheaper, but Stewart Tower’s luxurious, indulgent ice cream is made using fresh milk and cream directly from its own cows. Its ice cream is light and creamy – you can taste the freshness in every spoonful.
It creates more than 250 different flavours of ice cream and tasty fruit ices, as well as spectacular ice cream cakes available at its ice cream parlour. You can even make a day of it and have something to eat in its Roundhouse Cafe and pick up something special in the farm shop.
