We are proud to announce that our Traditional Mediterranean Soft Creamy Feta has garnered 4 prestigious accolades this year! At the Grocery & Specialty Food West Trade Show & Conference in April, 2024 Chaeban Artisan’s Soft Creamy Feta won “Innovative Dairy Product in Canada”. What a wonderful surprise!

We were thrilled to be selected amongst a list of over 200 amazing entries. Again, on May 29, 2024, the Retail…

As February approaches, we once again are releasing a feature flavour to honour a local community hero. For the first time, however, our community hero has been suggested by one of you! Back by popular demand, we are making our delicious red velvet flavour, which has been dubbed Ravi Red Velvet after our community champion, Ravi Ramberran. Ravi is a Winnipeg hero who truly does it all. He owns several local businesses, including St. James Burger & Chip Co., the Four Crowns Inn, and the newly opened Dreamland Diner. All of Ravi’s businesses are focused on community-centred work, from reducing…

The date is July 13th. It is a beautiful day at The Forks. We were hired by Inclusion System to provide all the attendees of the Disability Matters Vote with a free Chaeban Ice Cream. The turnout was beyond expectations for this very important event and cause. There were just three of us working that day, and we scooped and scooped and scooped. The line-up never went down for the three hours of the event. As the event was winding down, there was still a large lineup.  Then reality hit. We were going to run out of cups before we…

WOW, what an incredible way to kick off 2024! We’re thrilled to share the exciting news that four of our cheeses have placed in the top ten at the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair in Toronto.   What?  Chaeban Ice Cream makes cheese?  What the heck! While our recognition is frequently associated with our award-winning ice cream, hailed as the best in Canada in 2022 by the Royal Agricultural Winter Fair, you might not be aware that we also specialize in crafting a variety of exceptional cheeses. There are two reasons we started making cheese in addition to ice cream, We aim…

We continue our tradition to honour a real-life community hero namesake with each of our monthly feature flavours. Our last local hero was a famous one: Louis Riel, spokesperson, advocate, and leader in the fight for Metis rights. In honour of Louis, we pledged to donate $1 from every pint of Louis Lavender sold in August to Ma Mawi Wi Chi Itata Centre. For October, we couldn’t resist making our famous Peter Pumpkin. So the question was, how do we celebrate a community hero that goes with the season? Once we started our research, the answer became abundantly clear… Our…

If you visit our store at 390 Osborne, the first thing you will see is our sign on the door reminding people that our washrooms are for everyone.    Here are the reasons why this is our policy: We want people to know that we care about people, not just transactions. Our aim is for the first impression on our door to reflect our utmost priority: valuing people above all else. We don’t want to put our staff in the uncomfortable position of policing washrooms, instead, we want them to focus on providing great service. We’ve experienced the discomfort of needing…

We continue our tradition to honour a real-life community hero namesake with each of our monthly feature flavours. Last month’s local hero was Ryder Smith, a 13-year-old boy who was born with cerebral palsy who lives here in Winnipeg. In honour of Ryder, we will be donating $1 from every pint of Ryder Rhubarb sold in July to the Disability Matters Vote. In August, we decided to bring back one of our legendary award-winning flavours – Louis Lavender. The combination of Saskatoon berries and lavender create a symphony of tastes that is unrivalled in its complexity and allure. In every…

We continue our tradition to honour a real-life community hero namesake with each of our monthly feature flavours. Last month’s local hero was Julie Donaldson, the owner of Home Instead Winnipeg. In honour of Julie, we will be donating $1 from every pint of Julie Berrycake sold in June to the Alzheimer’s Society of Manitoba in memory of her grandmothers Sylvia and Kathy. Home Instead will match every $1. In July, we decided to use a seasonal fruit that we had never worked with before. Say Hi to Ryder Rhubarb! Ryder Rhubarb is reminiscent of rhubarb crisp. In case you’re…
