Arethusa Farm Raspberry Ice Cream

To be honest, I can't remember where I first saw Arethusa Farm pints. I saw them at Big Y a few years ago, but I know I saw them before that at Whole Foods or Stop & Shop (or maybe both). They don't have a million flavors, but I'm always tempted to try another brand. So, let's crack open a pint of...

Van Leeuwen Black Raspberry Chip Bars

[New for mid 2025] You know the best part of going to a new grocery store? All the ice cream stock is fresh! I didn't plan on buying anything frozen (because I'm still trying to clean the freezer), but then I saw several things I needed to try (despite not being sure how new they were). I do love black raspberry, so I think it's time we try....

Haagen-Dazs Summer Berry Belgian Waffle Cone

[New for 2025] (Disclaimer: I bought these over the summer but didn't try them until after I had covid) Butter cookie cones are out (after two years), and Belgian waffle cones are in. I guess this makes sense considering that I never clicked with the cookie cones. These should work better. The new cones come in vanilla salted caramel, triple chocolate fudge, toasted almond fudge, and...

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...

We-Li-Kit Ice Cream

Wait, is it pronounced we-lick-it or we-like-it? Anyway, We headed down in to Pomfret, Connecticut yesterday to check out a place with homemade ice cream, because homemade ice cream. Now this is leading to a question, so stay with me for a moment here.

Van Leeuwen Raspberry Layer Cake

Maybe I shouldn't admit this, but I actually ate this pint back in August of last year. On occasion reviews just get sidetracked. I will either take photos and not write up the review, or I'll write the review and never work on the photos. Sometimes it's both. See, I just couldn't get in to this flavor. I had been nibbling at it over several weeks but it just couldn't hook me.

Jeni's Powdered Jelly Donut Ice Cream

[New for 2022] I really should review the new banana bread ice cream right now, but yet again, I hear the siren call of the donut saying "try me first"

Tillamook White Chocolate Raspberry

Guess what? I finally found a Tillamook flavor that I really, really like! To stave off the ice cream boredom I feel at my local grocery stores, I've been picking up various flavors of Tillamook. I had seriously considered giving up on them, but I pressed on, and now finally I can sing the praises of one of their flavors. Let's check out....

Cold Case Ice Cream

A few weeks ago, I got an email from the marketing firm for Cold Case Ice Cream (website). I had never heard of them, but it only took a moment of looking at their website for me to realize that I needed to accept their offer and see what their delicious looking flavors were all about.

Ice Cream Machine Co

We were hanging around northeast Rhode Island when we decided to grab ice cream for lunch (because ice cream). We've been trying to explore more local places, so we decided to give the Ice Cream Machine Company in Cumberland, RI a try. Wanting something fancy and filling to try, we decided to give their Blondie Brownie sundaes a try (cost was $7.95 a piece).

Ben & Jerry's Topped Raspberry Cheesecake

[New for Early 2023] Ben & Jerry's has always done a good job with the cheesecake based flavors, but it's funny to think that this is the first time that they are mixing it in to the Topped lineup. I'm pretty stoked, so let's get the spoons ready for...
