The Amazing Jeni's Ice Creams
Have Arrived!

Jeni's is a Jammin'

A certain customer of ours (still a mystery who it was!)
was in Columbus recently eating scoops of Jeni's ice cream
when a conversation ensued about just where in Grand Rapids
would be the place to sell their frozen delights...
This turned into receiving samples which we ~ um ~ devoured. We have noted a certain cross section of people that are ice cream 'snobs' and a bunch of us here are at least professing addicts
to the creamy bliss from many brands.
That said, this brand is heads & many tails above...
Their background? Check out their great website for the whole picture but basically Jeni and her husband Charley own this artisan company in Columbus, OH.
Each batch is derived from "fresh ingredients found in the Ohio countryside as well as responsibly-raised exotics from around the world."
Our current flavor lineup includes:
- Salty Caramel
- Bangkok Peanut (peanut, coconut and spice!)
- Backyard Mint
- Brown Butter Almond Brittle
- Buckeye State (peanut butter & dark chocolate)
- Meyer Lemon Blueberry
- Riesling Poached Pear Sorbet
- Mackenzie Creamery's Goat Cheese & Roasted Red Cherries
If you're intrigued to know more, their blog is pretty informative - telling their story of how they make their Backyard Mint and gives you a chance to see behind their scenes.
We think Jeni's has amazing volume and richness in each pint. There's nothing like flavor of this sort to finish off your dessert...just last night in fact...

Cheese is one of our favorite subjects!
We've got more amazing cheese than ever!...and to think we'll be at the Fancy Food Show this week picking out more amazing options for summer, fall & beyond! The buffalo mozzarella season has officially begun! We do hope that we have a good handle on the laws of supply & demand in order to always (seriously we'll try!) from now through September to have great fresh buffalo mozz in stock for you to mix about with your tomatoes & basil, to make Italian panzanella or throw on that pizza on your grill! (I'm making myself hungry!)
