McConnell's Chocolate Covered Strawberries Ice Cream


I said I would try more McConnell's, and I did, but I also got covid (as mentioned in my last post). I somehow managed to wait almost six years before getting it, and let me tell you, I am not a fan. It wasnt until the end of the first week that I realized that I had lost my sense of smell (for the most part) and that in turn dulled my sense of taste. Both are on the mend, but please be aware that I wrote the first scooping without realizing that things were amiss.

Ben & Jerry's Salted Caramel Brownie Topped Ice Cream


[New for 2021] It's weird that I haven't reviewed a topped flavor in forever, but then I remembered that the new sundae flavors came out this year. Also, I do still pick up the strawberry topped tart now and again when I want something really sweet. Anyway, let's finally review...

Parlor Black Raspberry Chip Ice Cream


So the plan was to pick up another pint of New City ice cream at Whole Foods.... but unfortunately all of the new city pints were covered in a literal half inch (or more) of frost and ice. I thought we were coming home empty handed, but then I spied a new brand at Roche Brothers. Let me introduce you to...

New City Microcreamery Tres Leche Ice Cream


Almost 8 years ago, my in-laws surprised me with an ice cream pie from New City Microcreamery (review here). The plan was to visit one of their scoop shops, but we never did. At some point, their faux pints started showing up in stores, and still I did not try them (we'll blame location). Well, after all this time, I finally decided to try "the best in the world". That's a pretty bold statement...

Wendy's Strawberry Poptarts Frosty Fusion


[New for 2025] Doh, I posted this on instagram but not on the blog. When we were headed back from Jersey at the beginning of summer, we stopped at Wendy's, but I didn't want a sandwich. No no, I wanted...
