Incorporated in 1944, and formerly known as The Ice Cream Association of Great Britain and Ireland, the ICA provides an ever-developing forum for suppliers, retailers, caterers and manufacturers of ice cream products.

We currently boast a membership of over 650, divided into 9 geographically-based Divisions, each with their own annually-elected Committee.

The ICA publishes 'Ice Cream' - the successful industry monthly magazine - as well as organising the annual trade conference, together with exhibitions, competitions and regional social events.

Our organisation has long established links with all Government bodies, particularly DEFRA and the Department of Health (DoH) and we are continually involved in putting forward and supporting the views of our members.

We regularly update this site with news and Information from all aspects of the UK ice cream industry - if there's anything in particularly you want to see covered, let us know by emailing us at This e-mail address is being protected from spambots. You need JavaScript enabled to view it

Ice Cream Competition 2010

Following feedback from our members last year, we made a significant change to the ice cream competition. There are now two Champion of Champions - one Vanilla and one Flavour - and two separate trophies. An additional incentive for entrants is that the winners of all classed will receive promotional support by Verrill Media, a PR company which has been engaged by the ICA. We have also negotiated special rates for any members wishing to engage Verrill Media to assist them with their own PR.

This prestigious National Ice Cream Compeptition is open to members and non members.
