In 2011, Mohan Kumar had a problem. He needed to find a fix for his wife Holiday, whose strange pregnancy cravings included savory ice cream she couldn’t find on grocery shelves. He mentioned this to his friend Chef Sam, who whipped up a few quarts of pretzel ice cream. Holiday loved it so much that the trio decided to start an ice cream empire, with their first kingdom in Williamsburg.
