Hansens Is

Delicious Danish ice cream since 1922

Hansen's ice cream stand at Copenhagen Zoo

Well worth it

That’s how Hansens describe their own ice cream—and we couldn’t agree more.

The sense of delight you experience with a Hansens ice pop, a scoop of ice cream, or a soft serve in the ZOO is truly something special. You can almost taste the passion that Hansens has poured into their ice cream—both today and over the past four generations. Making original Danish ice cream may sound simple. And perhaps it is when you have more than 100 years of experience, and excellent ingredients to work with.

When you choose a Hansens ice cream, you can expect it to be made from 100% organic ingredients. This means ice cream free from synthetic pesticides and additives—offering a taste experience beyond the ordinary. Ice cream simply tastes a little better when you know you’re taking care of yourself and your family, while also protecting our shared environment, drinking water, and animal welfare—values that are important to us here at the ZOO as well.

Ready for a refreshment? Stop by Hansens Is near the ZOO entrance and the ZOO Tower.
