Happy New Year ! Meet Conor Sweeny, founder of DAE Ice cream - cracking start to 2024 - we delve into all sorts of deliciousness together. Conor taught himself to cook at 17 when he went vegetarian which opened a whole new world of opportunity. He began in a small cafe called Thyme out in Dalkey in 2016 and went on to complete a bachelors degree from DIT (now TUD in culinary arts).
During the first lockdown of Covid he was watching Tiger King (with the rest of the world) and eating a tub of plant based ice cream. It was bad. Very bad. He thought to himself that he could do better. So it began. From there he has built a veritable empire of ice cream treats and is on the verge of a very exciting expansion. Tune in and lick your lips to this gorgeous tale of an (almost accidental) ice cream entrepreneur !
