It’s no secret that we love milk. But there’s more to the white stuff than meets the eye. And, like everything at Appleby Farms, it starts with the cows.
The scoop on A1 and A2 proteins in milk
Depending on a cow’s genetics, they’ll produce milk that contains either the A1 or A2 proteins, or a combination of both.
Historically, cows always produced milk that only contained the A2 protein. But with changes in farming demands, most of the milk you see in the supermarkets today contains a mix of A1 and A2 proteins.
For people who have trouble drinking regular cow’s milk, it might be because of the A1 protein. So choosing products made with A2 protein milk only could make all the difference.
We’re all about A2 protein milk
At Appleby Farms, all our cows are 100% A2-certified. This means all the milk we use for our ice cream only contains A2 protein, no A1.
As farmers, we’re no experts on the human body (cows on the other hand…). But people who usually avoid conventional milk products say our ice cream feels better in their bodies, and that makes us happy.
Intensely creamy and mouth-wateringly moreish, it’s hard to pick a favourite.
