Play Ball Ice Cream

We are ready for Cardinals Opening Day on March 26th with our Play Ball Ice Cream! This customer favorite was inspired by the line, “Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jacks.”

We make popcorn flavored Serendipity Ice Cream, then add peanuts and a caramel stripe. Somehow, it tastes even better served up in a Cardinals batting helmet. “Batter up!”

314 Day/Pi Day

March 14th is both 314 Day and Pi Day. We have a couple of great ice creams - available now - in the lead up to this Saturday.

First, nothing says “St. Louis” like Red Hot Riplets, so a cult classic has returned. You really need to try Red Hot Riplets Ice Cream.

Next, what is more “314” than Gooey Butter Ice Cream? Chunks of cake throughout an ice cream that tastes like a St. Louis’ favorite!

Finally, If you have somehow missed trying Caramel Apple “Pie” Ice Cream, then Pi Day is the excuse you needed. So delicious!

St. Patrick’s Day

Customer favorite, Luck of the Irish, is in the dip case. It combines: Tullamore DEW Ice Cream, Guinness Ice Cream, and Irish Cream Ice Cream. 3 ice cream flavors that blend together perfectly!
