Chicory Ice Cream & Vanilla Caramel Swirl
A Happy Chicory × Les Givrés Collaboration
We've partnered with Les Givrés, artisanal ice cream makers, to create an ice cream that's out of the ordinary. Roasted chicory brings its toasted and slightly caramelized notes, perfectly balanced by a vanilla caramel swirl that coats every spoonful.
A meeting between the sweet bitterness of chicory and the roundness of vanilla caramel. Creamy, indulgent, with that subtle roasted taste.
Made by Les Givrés, in Montreal, with Happy Chicory chicory.
📍 Available in tubs at all 3 Les Givrés dairy bars.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is roasted chicory?
Roasted chicory is a root that is roasted, much like coffee beans. In Europe, it's a beverage that has been consumed for decades, and it's making a big comeback today for its health benefits. The result in the cup: a caffeine-free drink with notes of hazelnut, caramel, and chocolate. A good option if you want to reduce your caffeine intake without changing your coffee ritual.
What does chicory taste like?
It has a roundness reminiscent of coffee. The main notes are roasted hazelnut, caramel and chocolate, with a slight bitterness that balances it all.
What are the benefits of chicory?
Chicory is naturally rich in prebiotic fibers (inulin). These fibers are known to support gut microbiota. It's a gentle drink for the body, a good alternative if you want to reduce your caffeine intake. Do you want to understand inulin in more detail? We demystify this prebiotic fiber on our blog post.
Does chicory contain caffeine?
No, 0% caffeine. This is not a decaffeination process: chicory has never contained caffeine. If you don't want to give up coffee completely, our coffee-chicory blend (20% coffee, 80% chicory) is a good transition.
How to prepare roasted chicory?
It's prepared like coffee: French press, drip coffee maker, espresso machine, or simply steeped. Depending on your product, you'll find all the details in our guide for instant chicory or our guide for espresso chicory (ground).
What is the difference between chicory and coffee?
Coffee contains caffeine and can be more acidic. Chicory is caffeine-free and gentler on the stomach. In terms of taste, both have roasted notes, but chicory is richer, with hints of hazelnut and chocolate.
Can I mix chicory with coffee?
Yes, absolutely. It's a good way to gently reduce your caffeine intake, without changing your ritual. The blend provides more stable energy, without the peaks and crashes of regular coffee. Adjust the proportions to your taste.
Are your products organic?
Our chicory is grown using sustainable farming practices in France and contains no additives or preservatives. We are actively working towards organic certification.
