Ice Cream

Play Ball Ice Cream + New Play Ball Parfait

Play Ball Ice Cream +
New Play Ball Parfait

Who else is ready for Cardinals Opening Day on March 27th? It is time for Play Ball Ice Cream! This customer favorite was inspired by the line, “Buy me some peanuts and Cracker Jacks.”

We take popcorn flavored Serendipity Ice Cream, then add peanuts and a caramel stripe. And then this year, we are taking it to a whole new level by offering customers a Play Ball Parfait:

Play Ball topped with caramel, topped with Cracker Jacks, topped with a 2nd scoop of Play Ball topped with caramel, topped with roasted peanuts, whipped cream, and a cherry. So good!

Pi Day, 314 Day, St. Patrick’s Day
ice creams are all still available

Were you afraid that you missed our Pi Day, 314 Day, and St. Patrick’s Day ice creams? Good news! We still have them in the dip case.

We have our Caramel Apple “Pie” Ice Cream (for Pi Day), and our Red Hot Riplets Ice Cream and our Gooey Butter Ice Cream (for 314 Day).

Finally, our “Luck of the Irish” combines our Irish Cream, Guinness Beer, and Tullamore DEW Irish Whiskey ice creams (for St. Patrick’s Day).

A reminder to check our upright freezer for pints of your favorite flavors. If the pint has a round sticker, then it is 25% off (excludes Pistachio)!

314 Day/Pi Day + St. Patrick's Day + A-List

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 next Friday.

If you have somehow missed trying Caramel Apple “Pie” Ice Cream, then Pi Day is the excuse you needed. OMG, it is so delicious.

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

Finally, what is more “314” than Gooey Butter Ice Cream? New this year: Gooey Butter Bars. Order them separately, or even better...

Order a Gooey Butter Sundae: Gooey Butter Bar, scoop of Gooey Butter Ice Cream, strawberry topping, and whipped cream.

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!

Try a Grasshopper Spirited Shake! It is made with Mint Chip Ice Cream, Vodka, and White Crème de Cacao. Try an Irish Coffee! It is made with Kaldi’s Coffee, Tullamore DEW, and Vanilla Ice Cream.
