About Us
We used to date. Now we make ice cream.
Two Spoons was founded by Gabe and Rich—two guys who used to date and broke up... only to start a dessert company together. (We know. Wild.)
What brought us back together? Ice cream. Specifically, the kind we couldn't find anywhere—something that tasted amazing, felt nostalgic, and actually worked for our health goals.
Who We Are
Gabe is a serial tech founder with roots in gaming and multiple successful exits. He’s also on GLP-1 meds and couldn’t find a dessert that fit his lifestyle and didn’t taste like regret.
Rich is a former pharma exec and lifelong ice cream obsessive who spent five years developing what would become the foundation of Two Spoons.
Why We Built This
Together, we created ice cream that’s indulgent, better-for-you, and built on real science—with 30g of protein, zero added sugar, and a scoopable, creamy texture that feels like the real thing (because it is).
Two Spoons is:
- LGBTE Certified
- Built on a provisional patent
- Winner of multiple industry awards
- Proudly based in Southern California
We didn’t just want to reinvent dessert. We wanted to build something that’s fun, functional, and actually enjoyable to eat—whether you’re on a health journey, hitting fitness goals, or just want to enjoy a pint without the crash.
