DQ Caramel Toffee Cookie Blizzard


[New for Fall 2025]  We've been putting most of our energy in to trying all of the cool local places in Worcester County (and beyond), but there is a new blizzard on the menu, so let's order a....

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...

Kellogg's Frosted Brown Sugar Cinnamon Pop-Tarts Ice Cream Sandwiches


[New for 2025] It's kind of funny how often these are NOT in stock at Walmart. Occasionally I'll see a few boxes of strawberry or cinnamon, but I have yet to see the chocolate version. Alright, I've put off trying these long enough, let's open....

Nightingale Chomp Size Ice Cream Sandwiches


[Launched as "CHOMP by Nightingale" in 2022] It's been months since I've been to Shaw's, but I had a few moments to spare, so I ran in and stumbled on some really good ice cream sales. Instead of $6.99 for a box of four, these were $4.99 a box, and since I've been patiently waiting to try these, let's grab a box of each flavor!

Visiting Gelato Fiasco


We did it, we finally made it to Gelato Fiasco after all these years! It's been six years since my last GF review, and to make up for that, we visited GF Tuesday night on our way up through Maine, and then Wednesday night on our way back home. Let's see if this stuff is even better in person (but come on, you know it will be).

Goodpop Cookies N' Cream Ice Cream Bars


[New for Late 2024] I bought these during the lull between finishing up 2024 and waiting for 2025... and then 2025 tackled us with new stuff and these got buried in the downstairs freezer. Well, let's get a quick review of...
