Sweet Stops Across North America

Our summer 2021 issue talks about hummingbirds and their thirst for sweet things.

What is the must try flavor for the summer and what makes it special?
The Ancona ducks that live right by the Creamery didn’t just inspire the name Spotted Duck. Their eggs make the creamiest custard. Add to that homemade caramel with salt mined from beneath Seneca lake and you have a scoop that is all about farm life and couleur locale.

What would a stopover in Kentucky be without a taste of bourbon? Even better when it comes mingled with local honey and churned into ice cream. Go on, pick the bourbon & honey ice cream sundae that comes with hot chocolate fudge sauce and candied pecans.
