IceWorks Serving Up “Pretty Darn Good” Shaved Ice and Lemonade To Assist Special Events and Fundraisers in Huntsville

___________________________________________________________________________

September 8, 2014 – Norm and Jonathan Stoddart are a father and son team who share a rather unique yet special bond.  They are very passionate about Hawaiian shaved ice.  This tropical summer treat is a popular way to cool off in the hot weather, but the traditional shaved ice recipe comes with some unfortunate cons.  Often including heavy syrup and overpowering artificial flavors, traditional shaved ice can really generate an unhealthy aftertaste on those buds.  The Stoddarts, however, have created IceWorks Shaved Ice with the goal of making their favorite summer treat a bit healthier and with lighter, full-flavored syrups.

To get their business rolling, Norm and Jonathan purchased a shaved ice machine, but soon discovered that the flavors available from large suppliers were not up to par with their vision for IceWorks.  Seeing the truth in the old saying, the Stoddarts wanted it right, so they did it themselves.  This decision came with great taste for sure.

Iceworks’ signature syrups contain 20% less sugar than traditional syrups and utilize a high concentration of fruit extract to achieve an incredibly true-to-life flavor.  These fruit extracts are all natural and contain absolutely no artificial additives or colors.  Starting out with a base of simple ingredients, Iceworks’ syrups contain a mixture of cane sugar, water, sodium benzoate, and a touch of citric acid.  These syrups are then mixed fresh weekly at their commissary in Huntsville, Alabama and are unflavored until it’s time to service.  Adding the fruit extracts immediately prior to serving these icy concoctions ensure a crisp, fresh flavor.  Norm and Jonathan guarantee that you will taste the difference in their all-natural recipe.

If you think that IceWorks couldn’t get any better from here, think again!  Adding to the tasty flavors of the Stoddart’s shaved ice is a great deal of generosity.  IceWorks takes pride in offering 20% of gross sales for fundraising events and volunteer labor up to 50%.  Along with fundraisers, IceWorks is also available for VBS fairs, festivals, customized catering services, and many other special events.  Keep the crowds coming!  IceWorks can handle between 100 and 1,000 people at a time and they offer a great variety of packages to fit any budget.  Can you taste the delicious flavors of Norm and Jonathan’s shaved ice?  We thought so!  Follow the truck on Facebook and find out where IceWorks is heading to next!
