Public Service Announcement

This is not a test, I repeat this is not a test. This is a public service announcement from your bloggy ice cream information station. This is a world wide alert to inform you of the presence of a new holiday peppermint ice cream on the market. Warning: this stuff is so amazingly good it is sure to be sold quickly from your shelves, denying you the ability to drift away on rich, white chocolaty clouds of peppermint goodness, if you do not rush to your nearest public freezer and buy all you can RIGHT NOW!!!! This is indeed 'cause for alarm. You should be grabbing your wallets and running to the door in a state of sheer panic in order to acquire this new life blood of holiday ice cream flavors. I repeat, this is not a test.

Haagen Daz Peppermint Bark Ice Cream

"Rich white chocolate ice cream is blended with crunchy dark and white chocolate peppermint bark and peppermint candy pieces." This isn't as candy-sweet as the usual peppermint ice creams but it has a for-grown-ups-only richness to it from the white chocolate that makes it a seriously special treat.



I was serious about my warning. I'm giving you exactly 1 hour to get to the store before I go buy them all. Well? What are you waiting for? RUUUUUUUN!

Thank goodness you live in a different state from me! I am babysitting four kids right now, and I don't want to risk taking them to the store because then THEY WOULD WANT TO EAT ALL OF THE ICE CREAM! I will wait until they go to bed, so I can enjoy the entire pint all by myself.

oh my heavenly goodness. Peppermint ice cream is my FAVORITE, and this sounds like pure heaven with the chocolate combo. My mouth is watering.

OH NO I'm home alone with 3 kids...I hope there's still some left tonight ;)

There goes my resolution to not buy ice cream until I lose a few.

Yum! That sounds really good!

Normally when I see the words white chocolate I avoid whatever it is like the plague but I will give this ice cream a chance. If it is disappointing I will hold you personally responsible.

Peppermint Ice Cream is one of my favorite things about the holiday season. I'll have to try this one!

Scrappy said...

I don't usually like peppermint ice cream but I make peppermint bark every year for neighbors and teachers and love the stuff. I might have to try this one. Yum!

Sounds yummy, I love peppermint ice cream!
Unfortunately I already have a Sam's Club size box of Haagen Dazs vanilla covered with chocolate and almonds on a stick (which dh bought after I was drooling over it even though I was kidding. sort of.)

So I'll have to wait and you better not get to SLC to buy it all first!

Stephanie said...

Oh yum. That put me right in a holiday mood.

STOP IT!!!!!!! Peppermint is my all time favorite seasonal ice cream. Chocolate is my all time favorite everything. Stop!

You better be giving away free coupons for this stuff!

Mmmmm. I'm getting some tomorrow morning. Can I make a suggestion? I have discovered my true love. Baskin Robbins Nutty Coconut. It was so luscious, I thought I was back in Hawaii again. Mmmmm. I think I wants me sum'uh'dat now.

:( :( :( The website says there are no stores within 50 (!) miles selling that flavor...maybe some will start closer to Christmas...

Sea Star said...

YUM! Chocolate and peppermint sounds so heavenly. I will keep my eyes peeled for it when heading down the ice cream aisle at the store.

Michal said...

i have to admit that haagen daz is usually above my pricepoint. but i will watch for a great sale. it does look fantastic, though. i hope there's some left by the time the sale hits!:)

Jeanette said...

I love peppermint ice cream! Peppermint anything really.

You are NOT nice to Tempt. We did go to the store and they did not have any. I am sure you bought it all up. :-(

Lisa said...

Oh that looks really really good!
