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...

Emerald Brown Butter Irish Ice Cream


[New for 2025] Those new FatBoy pops werent the only thing I brought home from Shaw's the other week. See, I stumbled across the seven pint line up of Emerald Irish Ice Cream which is made with Irish milk, cream, and eggs. These pints debuted just last year and come in Atlantic Sea Salt, Salted Caramel, Chocolate Salted Caramel, Irish Cream, Irish Whiskey, Vanilla Bean, and...

Ben & Jerry's Caramel Blondie Ice Cream Bars


[New for Early 2026] I don't usually get my ice cream from Market Basket because their stuff is usually freezerburned (like the new Entenmann's flavor from Turkey Hill). That said, when I walked by these, I wasn't about to not bring them home.

Ice Cream Factory Gooey Butter Cake


Remember last year when I asked "Is the Ice Cream Factory good?", well, I finally have an answer for you after finding this 3/4 pint buried in my basement freezer. When I went to grab one of the new Ben & Jerry's sundae pints from that freezer, I suddenly got the urge for...

FatBoy Waffle Cone Ice Cream Sandwich Pops


[New for Early 2026] So I hit several stores this weekend hoping to find the new Ben & Jerry's Sundae pints. I didn't find them, but I am very happy and excited to report that I did find the brandy new....

Hazelnut Cocoa Shortbread is a buttery cookie filled with chocolate hazelnut spread. There are also toasted hazelnuts in the mix.

Salted Caramel Shortbread is a buttery cookie filled with salted caramel.

One fun fact is that these say "Product of Germany" on the back.

Are you interested at $5.49 for a 3.5oz bag? I'm not sure if they are anywhere but Target yet.

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...

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...

Ben & Jerry's Fudgy Flan Ice Cream


[New for Mid 2025] When I ran to Walmart for a few things before a day trip on Monday, I never expected to see something new. Not only is it new, but it maybe it'll even be different enough to get your attention. Lets dive in to....

McConnell's Sweet Cream Caramel Brownie Ice Cream


I know my street cred has always been lacking a proper pint of the well regarded McConnell's in the mix, but that ends today! I splurged on an $8 pint from Wegman's so that I could test my Swell Ice Cream Chiller. Well, it brought the pint home safe and sound. Time to try....

Fat Boy Churro Sandwich


[New for 2025] ...whoa, I just wrote "New for 2025".... crazy....  but yeah, I'm actually pretty stoked to be ice cream hunting this year. The last few years have been pretty boring, and I know I'm not going to enjoy everything headed our way, but it just feels more....   normal? We're supposed to get wound up for a new ice cream season in January. It's kind of a lost tradition. So, knowing that my local Shaw's had already started clearing shelf space, I ran to see what I could find early in the morning, and yeah, I found one of the things that I was most excited for!

Ben & Jerry's Vanilla Caramel Fudge


[New for 1994] Whenever there is a big sale on Ben & Jerry's, I like to treat myself to a pint or two of the good stuff. I might pick up one of my current favorites, or I might pick up something that I haven't had in forever so that I can take new pictures and add a quick update to an old review (here is a random example). Well when I picked up this pint well over a month ago, I didn't realize that I had never had it on the blog before... like, seriously, how has this 30 year old ice cream not been on the blog?

Friendly's Caramel Waffle Cone Ice Cream Bars


[For 2024-2025] To be honest, based on Friendly's current lineup, I'm not expecting much from these bars. Last year's ice cream bars were ok, but not so good that they would force me to try these... but I do need me a mowing snack, so let's crack open a box of....

Edy's Churro Caramel Crossroads Ice Cream


[New for Early 2023] Oh Edy's (Dreyer's), how little you effect my life these days. It's just hard to keep them in mind when I just don't see them that much now, and if I do, it's usually just a handful of standard flavors. The only thing really going on with them is the rocky road collection, and I don't see much of that around here. However, Market Basket does have them from time to time, so, let's take a scoop of...
