Ital Gelato - Pumpkin Pie

It's time to finally get Ital Gelato on the blog. I've seen it at Wegman's for awhile now, and I started thinking I had actually tried it at some point, but I can't find any record of it.

Tillamook Caramel Toffee Crunch Ice Cream

Well, I did it, I finally bought a container of Tillamook ice cream. See, Tillamook is more of a west coast thing because they are based in Oregon (farmer owned since 1909!). Their website currently lists 30 big containers of ice cream and 13 pints that are a mix of gelato, custard, and ice cream. They also have 6 ice cream sandwiches and 2 bars. In other words, they are a pretty well established company. My local options are limited, so what will I try first?

Serendipity Salty Caramel Pretzel Ice Cream

[New for Fall 2019, faded away in 2024] There are three new flavors from Serendipity that should be hitting your store shelves soon. I was fortunate enough to receive free samples so let's jump in to the one that got my attention (because it has "pretzel" in the name!).
