Jarling's Custard Cup operates as a regional custard shop offering custard and related frozen desserts, including items such as frozen pies and The Snowstorm. The business traces its origins to 1949 when George and Helen Potter opened a Danville store and developed a custard recipe, along with Cold Fudge to prevent melting. In 1983, the Jarling family opened a second location in Champaign, Illinois, at 309 W. Kirby Ave., expanding the brand beyond its original shop. Doug and Christy Jarling purchased the secret recipe in 1993, and the menu has since evolved with new creations while preserving favorites based on customer feedback. The company serves a local customer base that visits after school, after church on Sundays, and on weekends, and operates across two Illinois locations with a website for information.
