Frisko Is

Frisko is Denmark's leading ice cream brand, known for iconic frozen treats such as Magnum, Twister, Champagnebrus, Kæmpe Eskimo/Solstang, and Filur. Originally founded in Denmark in 1946 in Aarhus by dairy engineer Frits Schiønning under the name Frisko Flødeis, the company rapidly expanded to become a staple of Danish summertime culture.

In 1960, Unilever acquired Frisko and merged it into its global ice cream division (Heartbrand), uniting iconic regional ice cream makers across Europe and globally under the familiar red-and-white swirling heart logo. While production previously took place at facilities in Denmark (including Skovlunde until 1999), Frisko ice creams sold in Denmark are today primarily manufactured at Unilever's specialized European factories located in countries such as Sweden, Germany, and the United Kingdom.

Ultimate ownership resides with Unilever PLC, a British multinational consumer goods giant headquartered in London, United Kingdom. In Denmark, the brand operates and distributes through Unilever Danmark A/S.
