J.P. Licks

It’s not too often we make a featured flavor a permanent flavor. In fact, December marks the 1 year anniversary of the last time we did it! Our Salted Caramel Cookies ’n’ Cream ice cream was so popular that even though it has been years since we’d done it, we made it a permanent flavor. That means every store has it every day, no waiting for a new month to come around. A lot of factors go into the decision - how often do you ask for it, how much do you eat each time it comes out, do customers in all of the stores like the flavor or are only people in Newton eating it but no one in Jamaica Plain has even taken a bite, are the key ingredients readily available or is the main ingredient a seasonal fruit that we only want to use fresh? But Salted Caramel Cookies ’n’ Cream was pretty universally loved and you let us know it! What do you think the next permanent flavor might be?

Imagine making a carrot cake but you replace the flour with ice cream. That’s what eating our Carrot Cake Ice Cream is like. One of founder Vincent Petryk first featured flavors, he uses cream as his palette and adds shredded carrots marinated in brown sugar, walnuts, raisins, and a touch of cinnamon. All you need is a spoon!

This is a limited run flavor so hurry in.
