Start Your Summer Right With The Best Maple Creemee In Vermont

Vermont's maple creemees, especially from Green Mountain Sugar House and Canteen Creemee Company, are a must-try treat.

If you're reading this and you have to ask what a creemee is, well, you're probably not from Vermont. And that's OK! However if you've been here a while, passing through, or on a lovely vacation in the Green Mountain State, your time here is not complete without trying a maple creemee. What might look like a soft serve ice cream to anyone not familiar with this 802 delicacy, but the high butterfat content, combined with real VT Maple Syrup, makes these the favorite sweet treat here. It's impossible to say who has the best maple creemee in VT, but we certainly have two frontrunners. Let's take a look!

Our first stop on the mission to find the best maple creemee in VT is the Green Mountain Sugar House.

The Green Mountain Sugar House is located at 820 Rte 100 N., Ludlow, VT 05149.

This family run sugarhouse knows their way around making some of the best maple syrup you'll ever taste.

They have 14,000 taps which makes about 5,000 to 7,000 gallons of syrup each sugaring season.

Maple creemees are typically started with the same dairy base, but it’s their own maple syrup that’s the key ingredient.

To overpower the vanilla base, they use a dark grade of syrup to give it the maple flavor. That’s the real secret. The darker the syrup, the better the maple creemee!

They have a lovely spot to enjoy your treat on a hot day, but these are so popular they offer them year round.

Actually, they sell as many on a busy ski weekend than they do on a summer day!

The tradition of getting a creemee at the Green Mountain Sugar House runs deep.

True story: When this guy was a kid he'd paddle his boat across the lake for a creemee. Now he's bringing his own kids for the same treat which will make lifelong memories.

Another of our favorite spots for a maple creemee is the Canteen Creemee Company.

The Canteen Creemee Company is located at 5121 Main St., Waitsfield, VT 05673. Click here to visit their website or check out their Facebook page here.

Here you'll find some of the tastiest - and largest - creemees in the state.

If you want a true maple experience, you've got to try Bad Larry's Maple Madness.

This isn't your typical maple creemee!

This is a sky high maple creemee base, coated in maple cookie, topped with maple cotton candy and drizzled with maple syrup.
