A canopy is a living world. Branches, leaves, flowers, fruit and wildlife all exist together, changing with the seasons and shaped by the place around them.

​

That idea is where Canopy began.

 

Founder and ice cream maker Ricardo Brozek studied biological sciences, researching seed dispersal by the endangered woolly spider monkeys in Brazil's Atlantic Forest. He later worked in farming, beekeeping and commercial pollination across Europe, the Middle East and Australia before making his home in Tasmania.

​

That interest in how things grow and change followed him into the kitchen, first through cooking and pastry, and eventually into ice cream.

​

Canopy is made in Tasmania, with fresh local milk and cream and ingredients that follow the seasons. We work with growers, make much of what goes into our ice cream ourselves, and build flavours around ingredients when they are tasting their best.

​

The name Canopy is a reminder of where it all started: with the natural world, the seasons, and the simple pleasure of good things coming together.
