Bad Walter's news: what you asked for 💯
Last week!
Considering how many questions were up in the air about traffic, last week went off pretty smooth and with a lot of learnings! July 4th morning? Very busy. July 4th at 9pm? Ghost town. I love getting this kind of data and the more I learn, the better the shop gets run. Excited to have yet another holiday under our belt!
This week!
Last week we had a surprisingly large number of people come in requesting ice cream with chocolate covered potato chips. Simultaneously specific and vague (like… which one?!). But your ears must have been burning or something because that was the plan! Mr. Potato Head is back in action. One of our very OG flavors from the pop-up at my house, this one is very unassuming and very addictive. Salty and sweet. Peanut butter and chocolate. Ice cream and potato chips. Yum yum yum yum.
Guavalicious is back this week, this time in scoops. If you didn’t get your hands on a pint the first time we ran it, that’s because it sold very quickly with people coming back for seconds. The fruit flavors don’t tend to be my go-to choice but this one… I’m just obsessed with it. The guava jam is like candy. But it’s fruit! That makes this flavor healthy and responsible, right???
Lastly, the reason why i’m sending this out so late: I’ve been busy perfecting our newest pint flavor. Matcha strawberry is inescapable right now, but there’s a sneaky latte I’ve been eyeing on TikTok: matcha banana latte. That combo seemed so dreamy, we turned it into a pint. Matchanana has our first matcha ice cream ever, swirled in with our fave banana bread recipe. If you you’re matcha-curious, this is a great entryway—it’s matcha without being overwhelming. Matcha for the whole family, if you will.
Oh, and lastly lastly: I hear you about the gummy worm in the dirt cup flavors. Gummy worms, as true to theme as they are, are just not meant to be frozen. They’re annoying. They’re in the way. They’re impossible to eat. And they don’t add to the experience. So we’re taking them off. If you are adamantly Team Gummy Worm, speak up! We can always go back next time.
