Pella Culver's Flavor Of The Day (2024)

FAQs

What does "flavor of the day" mean at Culver's? ›

The Flavor of the Day has been a Culver's tradition since we opened up our first restaurant in our hometown of Sauk City, Wisconsin. Every day you'll find a unique flavor of Fresh Frozen Custard featured at each Culver's, different from one restaurant to the next.

And it's different from other frozen desserts. In fact, the distinction is even written into law. Custard is made from a combination of milk, cream and pasteurized egg yolks, and in order to be true custard, it has to be at least 1.4 percent egg. Anything less than that, and it's just ice cream.

Culver's uses fresh, never frozen beef, and the pressing and searing technique locks in the juices and therefore the flavor. Pressing the beef also ensures it is the right thickness to cook evenly on the grill. "That's where that great steak flavor comes from." The beef is seasoned with a salt and pepper mixture.

Fresh Frozen Custard
