Alec’s Ice Cream raises $11 million to expand its regenerative organic and A2 dairy ice cream nationwide, combining indulgence, health, and sustainability while supporting regenerative farmers and climate-positive food innovation.
Alec’s Ice Cream, the world’s first regenerative organic and A2 dairy ice cream brand, announced the close of an oversubscribed 11 million dollar Series A funding round led by Imaginary Ventures.
Additional investors include Great Circle Ventures, Altelan Capital, DAYBREAKER, Dr. Anthony Guston, and Monique Volz from Ambitious Kitchen.
The new funding will help Alec’s expand nationally, accelerate innovation, and strengthen its mission to build a more sustainable food system through regenerative agriculture.
Founded in 2020 by Alec Jaffe, the California-based company is reimagining how food is grown and enjoyed.
Alec’s Ice Cream sources its ingredients from pioneering regenerative organic farms that work to reverse the effects of climate change by improving soil health, biodiversity, and carbon capture.
By using A2 dairy, the original milk protein, the company creates ice cream that is easier to digest and better for overall health without sacrificing flavor or quality.
This approach has positioned Alec’s as a leader in the growing movement that blends indulgence, wellness, and sustainability.
“This funding marks an exciting new chapter for Alec’s Ice Cream,” said Alec Jaffe, Founder and CEO. “With the support of our incredible partners, we will scale distribution, bring new innovations to market, and advance our mission to change the way people think about food, proving that ice cream can be both indulgent and a force for good.”
The Series A follows the successful launch of Culture Cup, a new line of prebiotic and probiotic single-serve cups that sold out nationwide after going viral earlier this year.
The line is now available at Whole Foods Market, Wegmans, and Target, showing strong consumer demand for dessert options that are both functional and sustainable.
Alec’s continues to grow its popular pint collection, which includes standout flavors such as:
🍦 Peanut Butter Fudge Honeycomb
🍌 Palm Springs Banana Chocolate Date Shake
🌺 Tahitian Vanilla Bean
With products now available in more than 3,000 retail locations and year-over-year sales expected to double, the brand is quickly expanding its presence across grocery and retail channels.
“Alec’s Ice Cream removes the trade-off between indulgence and health,” said Logan Langberg, Partner at Imaginary Ventures and newly appointed board member. “By combining culinary creativity with nutritional integrity, the brand is shaping the future of permissible indulgence.”
