About
Häagen-Dazs is a New York-born super-premium ice cream brand known for its extraordinarily rich, dense ice cream made with high-quality ingredients (cream, egg yolks, real vanilla, fresh fruits) and minimal stabilizers — delivering an indulgent eating experience that distinguishes it from commercial ice cream brands that use more air and lower-fat formulations. Originally founded in 1961 by Reuben and Rose Mattus and acquired by Pillsbury (then General Mills) in 1983, Häagen-Dazs is now owned by Nestlé in most of the world and by General Mills (NYSE: GIS) in the US and Canada — a split ownership structure resulting from the Pillsbury acquisition.
