Walter Lappert, (22 March 1921 - 1 September 2003) at the age of 61, founded a business in Kauai to manufacture and sell "super-premium" ice cream based on family recipes from his European upbringing.
He rode a wave of enthusiasm for gourmet luxury foods using fresh, high-quality local ingredients in Hawaii.
Lappert's Aloha Ice Cream grew to have annual revenues exceeding $15 million in six U.S.
states and produced 18,000 gallons of unique flavors of ice cream each month.
Using Belgian chocolate, vanilla beans from Madagascar, local macadamia nuts, guava, and coffee beans from Kona, Lappert created a menu of 125 flavors.
