DQ Caramel Apple Cheesecake Blizzard


[New for August 2026] Geez, DQ is busting out five new blizzard flavors in the span of 3 months? That's pretty cool right, especially considering that the last 3 three new blizzards I tried were all pretty meh. Anyway, I've got four options to try, but I thinking I'm going to go with the brandy new August blizzard of the month...

Target Favorite Day Ice Cream Seasonal Offerings


Wow, just shy of three years since I've talked about Target's favorite day ice cream. It just hasn't caught my attention recently, but then I saw these two weeks ago.

More Dr. Bombay Flavors?


[New for Mid 2025] I can't believe I'm saying this, but two more Dr. Bombay flavors will be showing up at your local Walmart! I don't know who is buying these, but someone is!

Sticky Caramel Apple is green apple sherbet and caramel ice cream with crunchy peanuts and salted caramel swirls.

Long Beach Fruit Cart is mango sherbet and coconut ice cream with pineapple pieces and spiced mango swirls.

Are you interested by either of these at four bucks a pint? Maybe you've seen them? I'll admit that they are certainly creative sounding, but with their track record, it's still not enough to bring me back in the Dr. Bombay fold. What do you think?

Tillamook Apple Crisp Ice Cream


[New for Late 2024] While Market32 has been supplying us with all of our Tillamook Holiday Sugar Cookie needs, it was Market Basket that hooked me up with the new hotness. That's right, it's time to scoop in to...

Van Leeuwen: Cake vs Pie


I'm not sure what I'm in the mood for right now, so let's bring back that age old question of "what's better, cake or pie?" The question is also an excuse to clean up the freezer!

WisePies Pizza Make-A-Wish WishPies


[New for Late 2022] I was just going to take a picture of these when I saw them, but then I checked the nutrition and ingredient and thought "yeah, that's gonna be a Saturday afternoon snack". These Walmart exclusive pies are $6.98 a piece with a dollar of that going to the Make a Wish foundation (full press release here). Now, let's cook ourselves up a....

Hannaford Cinnamon Swirl Apple Pie Ice Cream


[New for 2021?] During a rogue trip to Hannaford, I spotted something that I hadn't seen before. Admittedly, I was a little hesitant to purchase it because I've been disappointed by apple flavors before, I but I decided to give in and buy....

Friendly's I Cannot Tell a Lie Cherry Pie Ice Cream


[Limited Edition for Early 2020] Pickings are slim when you only go to the grocery store once a week, and my local walmart has been consistently wiped out. However, those stocking up seem a little hesitant to grab something new which means I get to try....

So Delicious Oatmilk Frozen Dessert


[New for 2019] Guess what? There's not one, but two oat milk ice creams coming out this year. This makes me happy because my son is quite partial to his vanilla oat milk so I think this might actually be something he enjoys. Oh, also, we're cheating and trying two of the flavors at once. There is a third flavor, peanut butter & raspberry, but for safety we left that one at the store.

Whole Foods Apple Pie Ice Cream Bars
 and the Nosh Show Episode 89


[New for Fall 2016] Hello Nosh Show listeners! Episode 89 is live and when you get to the end, I mention a product that hadn't won me over just yet. As everyday items continue their assimilation into the worlds of pumpkin and apple (before an explosion of peppermint products hit us), it's nice to see apple and not just pumpkin invading the freezer aisle.

Edy's Washington Apple Pie Ice Cream


[New for early 2016] I haven't had the urge to try any more of the new slow churned Edy's (Dreyer's) state inspired flavors but Cumberland Farms amazing apple pie ice cream had such an amazing flavor that I think I'm finally ready to dig in to....

Cumberland Farms Amazing Apple Pie Ice Cream


When I picked up Cumberland Farms latest Ultimate scoop flavor, I used their 2 for $7 promotion to pick up a second pint as well. School time means fall time, so I think something seasonal is in order.

Coolhaus Renzo Apple Pie-Ano Ice Cream Sandwich


[By Nick] It's October 1st which to me means it's officially apple picking season! Oh how I love living in Upstate, NY with all of our apple orchards. If you've never bitten into a freshly picked apple, you haven't lived. Now while this Coolhaus sandwich can't be picked from a tree, you can pick it straight from a freezer near you like I did at the Niskayuna Co-op.

Dairy Queen Apple Pie Blizzard
The September 2014 DQ Blizzard of the Month


[New for 2014] Hello! we interrupt the final post of Nick week to let you know that Dairy Queen has gone and given us an early fall surprise this weekend. Remember how I always say that the new Grill 'n Chill is awesome about being on time with new blizzards? Well, we were going to wrap up our family Saturday stuff with the Chips Ahoy blizzard when my wife goes "APPLE PIE BLIZZARD!". Wait, WHAT?? Sure enough, I look over and in the window is the new Apple Pie Blizzard and get this, the excellent Pumpkin Pie blizzard is back already!! I'm usually the first to complain about fall flavors coming in to early but I'm so stoked right now. Do I try Chips Ahoy again or do I go Apple pie? Oh man, what to pick??

Adirondack Creamery Caramel Apple Ice Cream


[By Nick] In my last review, I mentioned I can't stand applesauce (Dubba's Note: HEATHEN!). However, I absolutely love a fresh, crisp apple. Living in Upstate, NY, nothing quite says fall like a freshly picked apple from a local orchard. Apples are basically what pumpkin spice is to the rest of the world around this time. Apple cider donuts are easily one of my favorite treats around this time but if anything tops those, it has to be a caramel apple. Sure you can get them at most fairs during the summer but the ones I can get locally in the fall are far superior.

So why did I give you this back story? Well, I've been meaning to try Adirondack Creamery for a while now and knew they came out with a Caramel Apple flavor last year that is exclusive to the NY Metropolitan at the Whole Foods in Brooklyn as well as Adams Fairacre Farms in the Mid-Hudson Valley. I live nowhere close to either of those places so when I spotted this flavor at the Niskayuna Co-op I jumped right on it. I have no idea how they got their hands on it but I'm not complaining.

Talenti Caramel Apple Pie Gelato #29


[New for 2014] Is winter over yet? I mean, how many commutes can be messed up in a single season? Granted I'll take a terrible 3 hour ride home over a few days of power loss, but this season needs to be done with, the two feet of snow in my yard needs to melt, and spring needs to kick in to action. Uggg. See, the two easy ways back to my house were both bogged down by the slippery ride home on Wednesday, so I took the long way, stopped in to Market Basket, and then nearly jumped for joy when I saw this.

Breyers Apple Cinnamon Crumble FDD


Ok, you all know I'm distrustful of Breyers and their so called "more desirable" frozen dairy desserts, but several our fellow ice cream buddies have said this one is good, so here goes.

The Other JC Pie Pops : Chocolate Silk, Strawberry Cream, and Caramel Apple Crumble


Guess what? This is our 900th review post! Not just 900 posts, but 900 review posts! Now considering the fact that just 4 or 5 posts are re-reviews, and then factoring in that dozens of posts (like fights) cover multiple products means that we've covered well over 900 unique frozen products on this blog! That also means we're just a stone's throw away from hitting a 1000! Not every review is a huge dissertation, but sometimes a half decent or so-so treat only deserves a couple of pics and a few choice words. Who knows what the next review will be, but at least you can count on the fact that it won't be a repeat!

To celebrate our achievement, I've got a TRIPLE review for you guys. I was blown away by my first JC pie pop experience and so I couldn't wait to tear into their other three flavors. So, without further ado, it's time to get hungry.

Front Porch County Fair Fried Apple Pie Ice Cream


[New for 2013] Time to try another flavor from our free shipment of new Front Porch ice cream pints. Now Front Porch premium Carolina churned ice cream is new to to the market as of last year, but it's made by the fine folks of Mooresville Ice Cream who have been around since 1924.

This is Front Porch County Fair Fried Apple Pie ice cream. It's "spiced apple ice cream with an apple swirl and pieces of cinnamon sugar shortbread".  I always get excited when cinnamon is involved.
