and for people who following religious restrictions
such as Jews and for vegans.
The new Rite Aid shaping up on El Camino Real and Mercedes Avenue in Atascadero is set to open in July. Construction began in November.
The new store will have an ice cream stall and a drive-through pharmacy in about 17,000 square feet, said Mike Hieshima of the Carpinteria-based developer Epsteen & Associates.
The entire staff is poignant over, local store manager Jim Barksdale said, noting that approximately 20 to 25 staff are excited about the change.
The new store will mark an updated look with stone veneer siding, red-tile roof and new landscaping, Hieshima said. There will also be 62 new parking places.
The existing Rite Aid, situated behind the new building in the Plaza Del Camino shopping center, is more than 20 years old, he said. It will feature 21,000 square feet of vacant space for a new tenant when Rite Aid moves out.
Carmarthenshire ice cream a family-run firm has won a two-year contract to supply NHS hospitals in Wales.
Frank's Ice Cream, based at Capel Hendre in Amman ford, will make more than a million small tubs of strawberry and vanilla ice cream a year.
Giulio Dallavalle, who runs the firm with brother Renaldo, said they have a special ice cream to win the contract. The award-winning firm's 20 employees are now working round-the clock, seven days a week.
Mr Dallevalle said the beauty of the convention to supply hospitals in Wales was that it "de-seasonalises" the ice cream market, and that they were working non-stop, partly to meet the demand. They said it is a momentous contract for us and we are happy with the outcome.
While business development has chilled for some, a tiny shop specializing in Italian gelato has bucked the inclination and found its sweet spot.
With help from a massive social network community, Giapo a boutique icecream shop in Auckland has boomed during the downturn and proved critics wrong by blooming in its first year of business.
With his thick Italian accent, owner Gianpaolo Grazioli puts the rapid victory down to the special bond the store has formed with its loyal customers.
The most important thing is that it's a community shop it’s the icecream store of the block. Nothing more or nothing less, he said.
Located in the heart of Auckland on Queen St, next door to the historic Civic Theatre, Giapo has become what Grazioli refers to as a church. But it's a church very much with a social media twist.
Frenzied Schmitz Park Elementary School students juggled, skipped rope walked on their hands and rode unicycles around the Madison Park Middle School's gymnasium in front of a bleacher-packed crowd Thursday, March 25. They performed at "Disco Night" theme for the annual event, the popular Ice Cream Social.
Over the years it has developed such big that it was held at Madison Middle School's Gym. The students trained their routines over the course of the school year, set to music.
Ice cream was then served in the cafeteria. Some families opted out of the long dessert line and headed over to Husky Deli for ice cream there instead.
Jerry Greenfield, co-founder of Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream, helped kick off Longwood University's much anticipated three-day Sustainability Conference on Thurs., March 18. The sustainability conference was a three-day series of events for students and staff from both Longwood and schools from around the state. The conference thesis focused on economic development, environmental stewardship and social justice.
Greenfield was the essential speaker of the conference, where he lectured in Blackwell Hall. He spoke about business sustainability, social responsibility and his radical business philosophy that has made Ben and Jerry's Ice Cream the multi-million dollar company that it is today. In addition, attendees were treated to free Ben & Jerry's ice cream in Dorr ill Dining Hall after the lecture.
Greenfield began by giving a summary of how Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream got its start. He talked about how he and Ben Cohen became friends and how they ultimately came to want to make ice cream for a living. Greenfield explained that the pair attended a $5 Penn State correspondence course in ice cream making, and shortly thereafter opened their homemade ice cream shop in Burlington, VT in May 1978. Though there were challenges of operating an ice cream shop in the cold Northeast, eventually Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream began selling their ice cream in containers like most of us recognize today.
Introduced to the market in late 2008, Arctic Zero is a product that fills the healthy ice cream gap at natural food stores. Compared to a protein shake, Arctic Zero has 20 grams of whey protein concentrate, but it offers an all natural 136 calories for an entire pint. Its consumers enjoy a guilt-free, gluten-free and fat-free experience. Along with health foodies, calorie counters, and protein aficionado, it seems 2 new groups are weighing in on this new treat.Those who are sensitive to sugar and those who are lactose intolerant love our product,says CMO Garrett Blood.In addition,only up to 25% of the total carbohydrates and sugars in Arctic Zero are absorbed.
Arctic Zeros wide request for these reasons has allowed the company to add stores on an almost weekly basis with recent store chains such as Bristol Farms, Henry,and Whole Foods carrying it.With interest from other natural retailers for a healthy frozen dessert, Arctic Zero should be available locally to most consumers by summer however until then the alternative is to order it online at Amazon.com.We get calls from customers in states like Michigan and upstate New York,where temperatures are in the single digits,asking when Arctic Zero will be available in their local stores says Blood.But until more stores begin carrying Arctic Zero, the best solution for some is to order it online through Amazon.
Ordering Arctic Zero online also allows consumers to try new flavors before they are released to the retailer. Mint Chocolate Cookie is one such flavor that can be ordered on Amazon and will be available at local retailers by late March. Flavors that customers can currently find in their local stores are Vanilla Maple, Chocolate, Strawberry Banana, and Chocolate Peanut Butter. By late summer two additional flavors, Cookies & Cream and Coffee will make their entrance for the heaps to enjoy. So by the time summer is here, Arctic Zero will have everyone screaming for healthy ice cream.
It's a meek icecream with an ambiguous name Fruit Special. It's pink, of all things. Brenham-based Blue Bell describes the flavor as Tutti-Frutti ice cream with pineapple chunks, maraschino cherries, small marshmallows, and chopped roasted almonds.
According to a July 2009 Harris Poll, chocolate is the most popular ice cream flavor, scoring 27%, followed by vanilla (22%), cookie dough/cookies and cream (22%), butter pecan/Swiss almond (22%), and mint chocolate chip (17%). No Fruit Special.
And yet Fruit Special has been preferred by enough consumers that Blue Bell has revitalized it not once but twice, with the latest re-issue taking place in March 2010. "It's back for the first time in quite some time, and it's back simply because of popular demand," says Blue Bell spokesman Bill Weiss. "My wife was just telling me the other day that it reminds her of when she was a little girl, and her grandmother always had it in the freezer."
Last week, entrepreneurial reader Aaron went to his local Acme supermarket outside of Philadelphia to pick up some yummy, delicious, Edys' ice cream. Except what he brought home wasn't neither yummy nor scrumptious because it was 8 months past its sell-by date.
They had my new favorite flavor that is kinda hard to find (Hot Cocoa,its like Rocky Road without the nuts.) And it was on sale, so I also bought some Cherry Chocolate Chip.
When I got home and helped myself to my treat, the ice-cream was bad and I dumped out the bowl. The Cocoa flavor was just freezer burned. The Cherry on the other hand was blatant fetid. I knew I wanted to either take them back to the store or write to Edys',so I kept the containers.
Edy’s feedback form asks for expiration date and UPC code, so I jotted it down. When I noticed the Expiration Dates. The Cocoa was not expired yet (4/25). But the Cherry had, last year 7/22/09 almost 8 months past due.

Icecream Traders have been warned that if they park up outside schools in insolence their vans will be impounded. The vans are also not permitted to stop in town centres because they "cause congestion." Hillingdon Council in west London said they were forced to act because there is "a need to encourage healthier eating habits in children."
But the new policy were criticized as trivial by ice cream sellers who said head teachers used to welcome them with open arms. Pete Bhogal, aged 45 years, who has worked as an ice cream man for the last 26 years said the new rules were pointless. "Ice cream is a dessert, it's not unhealthy. An ice lolly is only unhealthy if you have three or four in one go," he said.

Start by placing the cream on the stove over a medium heat. Add the vanilla pod, bring the cream to a simmer, then turn off the heat and allow to infuse for 20 minutes.
