This week, we’re tasting a relatively new brand of ice cream in a classic flavor profile beloved by kids of all ages: Cookies & Cream by Van Leeuwen. If all those vowels are tripping you up, Marcello and Carolyn have a very sophisticated and foolproof way to remember the pronunciation, and it definitely is not a rhyme. Chocolate lovers, be sure to stick around for The Last Bite, because we think you’re going to be especially pleased about next episode’s ice cream selection!
If your family wants to taste and score along at home, we would love to share our score card Google doc with you! Request a score card – or your favorite flavor! – by emailing us at SundaeFundayPodcast@gmail.com, or DM us on Instagram @SundaeFundayPodcast. You can also see what Carolyn’s been baking lately on Instagram @BlackBunnyTreats and find out about her upcoming baking classes.
