Mullin's is the only large scale commercial producer of goat's milk ice cream on the island of Ireland. Sales Manager Peter Lynn said: "We are absolutely delighted at our success, not least because we hope that Bally Bleat will allow children all round Northern Ireland who are sensitive to cow's milk to enjoy ice cream for the first time.
