Award-Winning Gourmet Ice Cream - Made in Queensland, Loved across Australia - 100% Locally Sourced and Made in Australia

Our Story

From our humble beginnings to today, Mammino Gourmet Ice Cream is still created in the place we first called home.

A Family Tradition That Lives On

Flavours Crafted to Perfection

Over the years, the Mamminos have added a variety of flavours and their ice cream has become one of the Childers district’s most iconic products winning many food and tourism awards.

Sadly, Childers lost a wonderful ambassador when Anthony Mammino passed away in January 2017. However, Mammino Gourmet Ice Cream has stayed in the family with Anthony’s cousin Leo Ricciardi, and his wife Helen, taking on the business in September 2017 after having spent a great deal of time helping Teena, learning the recipes, and getting to know the suppliers of all the quality ingredients.

The Legacy

Story Of Mammino:

In 1996, Anthony & Teena Mammino began selling macadamias on a roadside stall. When Teena decided to try creating a new treat by adding macadamias to her grandmother’s old-style ice cream recipe, word soon spread and the demand for their ice cream led to it becoming a full-time operation.

Crafted with Tradition

Our Story

You will still find Mammino Gourmet Ice Cream in the same place it all started, at a humble Childers farmhouse set amongst the rich red soil and cane fields that are hallmarks of the area.

A Family Tradition That Lives On

On March 20, 2025, Leo and Helen officially retired, and the business was proudly acquired by Mammino Foods Pty Ltd. Today, the Mammino team continues to craft the beloved traditional recipes at their new factory, staying true to the legacy that began years ago. While the location may have changed, the warm country hospitality remains the same. Factory tours are now available, offering a behind-the-scenes look at how Mammino’s signature ice cream is made. Mammino Gourmet Ice Cream has become home to one of the largest ranges of macadamia nut ice cream in Australia. There is a range of flavours combining many of your favourite tastes with smooth nutty macadamias.
