Frequently Asked Questions

Great question. It’s a lengthy process to make new Klondike® flavors. First we wait until the dead of winter. Then we make the 4,000-mile trek to the Yukon via snowmobile. Upon arrival, we enter a massive igloo and sit there until someone comes up with a great product idea. Then we all high-five and go home …

Ah, yes, easy fix. Convince a friend to scare the living daylights out of you. Alternatively, drink a huge glass of ice water with a wooden spoon clenched between your teeth. Wait, those are cures for the hiccups. Hmm, maybe try listening to some ’90s hip-hop?

Klondike Bars were invented in 1879 when scientists were looking for a way to replace gas lighting in houses with an electric-based light fixture. Oops sorry! That’s the history of how light bulbs were invented. You can learn all about the invention of Klondike Bars Klondike Bars here.

Great question. As long as your Klondike® product has never melted and been re-frozen and you’re enjoying it by the “Tastes Best Before” date, you should be all set. We don’t recommend refreezing melted products because the flavor and consistency will be affected. And no one likes it when their Klondike® bars are … affected. Here are a few tips to keep them as fresh as possible: At the supermarket, buy frozen foods last. Be sure the package shows no signs of thawing and refreezing. Ask to have your Klondike® ice cream be bagged in plastic with other frozen foods. At home, immediately unpack the ice cream and place it in the coldest part of the freezer, not in the door where it is subject to more fluctuating temperatures.

Well, that’s a new one. But if you think there’s something wrong with the Klondike® products you purchased, drop us a note from the contact us page or give us a heads up on our consumer care line (1-800-931-2830).

I guess we could put more bars in our packages, but six is our favorite number. And to be honest, if your goal is to have more Klondike® bars, you could always just … buy … more … Klondike® bars, right?

Well this is a bit of a catch-22. We try to make all those chunks, swirls and crunches in our Klondike® bars and ice cream sandwiches as satisfying as possible, but sometimes they taste so good you just have to have more. If you have specific comments, we’d be happy to chat on our consumer care line (1-800-931-2830) or drop us a line on our contact us page.

We have No-Sugar-Added Bars for the same great taste you love without the sugar — because you don’t need extra sugar when you taste that good!

Currently Klondike® offers our famous Vanilla ice cream bars and the no sugar added. And let us tell you: They are faaaaantastic. Seriously, they’re awesome and have less sugar.

We’ve made a commitment to only use milk and cream from American cows that are not treated with artificial growth hormones (Hooray for doing the right thing!). But, FYI, while our ice cream may meet this standard, suppliers of other ingredients like cookies, candies and sauces may not be able to make the same pledge. That said, the FDA states that no significant difference has been shown between dairy products derived from rBST-treated and non-rBST-treated cows. Hope that helps.☺

Nope. Klondike® products are not gluten-free. We do not operate allergen-free manufacturing sites, however we do have allergen management programs in all our facilities. The intent of these programs is to avoid unintentional cross-contamination of allergens between products. Our product labels adhere to the FDA’s strict regulations regarding declaration of ingredients and allergens. We do not use the terms “Natural” or “Artificial Flavorings” to hide the existence of any allergens. RECIPES CAN CHANGE. We strongly recommend that allergic consumers refer to ingredient declarations EVERY TIME they purchase processed foods.
