Putting Warren On The Map—Max Hoover, Grandmaster Ice Cream Maker
Paris Wolfe from Cleveland.com stopped by the shop to talk ice cream, our accomplishments, and of our journey into the ice cream scene:
📖 Cleveland.com — “Grand Master Ice Cream Maker creates unique flavors at Cockeye Creamery”
“For me, making ice cream is more than a business—it’s selling joy, selling happiness.”
About Our Journey
From humble beginnings in Warren, Ohio, we’ve dreamed big:
Scooped our way to national recognition with award-winning flavors.
Opened our own manufacturing plant right here in Warren to help us bring our super-premium ice cream to your freezers.
Landed on the 2024-2025 Ohio Ice Cream Trail, celebrated (with our pals at Franky’s Pizza and Ripley’s) as some of the best stops in the state.
Launched Cockeye Cares, giving back to local nonprofits and building stronger community ties.
Every milestone is a reflection of YOU—our community, customers, families, and friends—who believe in our vision, savor every scoop, and share our dream of global ice cream takeover for the Hoovers from the West Side of Warren. Thanks for showing up for us (and yourselves), Warren.
This honor is yours as much as it is ours. Here’s to more milkshakes, late-night ice cream runs, birthday celebrations, flavor suggestions, smiles, and shared moments through the window!
What’s Next? (A Little Scoop on Canfield…)
We’ve been hard at work behind the scenes on something we’ve been dreaming about for a long time—our second scoop shop! We’ve been keeping most of the details under wraps but now we can share this:
👉 Canfield, Mahoning County—get ready. We’re still on track to open this year, and we can’t wait to bring our super-premium ice cream (and a whole lot of Cockeye culture) to a new neighborhood. 🫶🏻
