MARKDALE, ON--(Marketwired - October 24, 2016) - On Saturday October 15th, Chapman's Ice Cream was recognized by a panel of its peers for its operational and market achievements in 2016. Taking home awards in 3 of 5 categories, including Best Ice Cream, Most Innovative Ice Cream, and the newly created Ice Cream Maker of the Year, Chapman's effectively solidified its seat as one of the most prominent, and enterprising independent ice cream manufacturers in the world. Having secured the IICC award for Most Innovative Ice Cream at the 2015 conference in Canada, the company's success at this year's event is a strong indication of its momentous leadership in the industry.

The IICC is an international association of independent Ice Cream Manufacturers, founded in 1986.

Chapman's Premium Caramel Saucy Spots ice cream earned the top spot in the Best Ice Cream category, while their Super Saucy Spots Sandwich stole the Most Innovative title for its proprietary ripple injection system.

The awards were presented at the Gala Dinner ceremony, following a week-long stretch of collaborative operational and commercial roundtables held in Barcelona, Spain from October 8th-15th. Next year's conference will be held in Denmark.
