Unusual Ice Cream Flavors That Surprisingly Just Make Sense

June 3, 2023

Hear us out – sometimes the oddest food combos sometimes turn out to be the best: chocolate and pretzels, watermelon and salt, ketchup and eggs. If you’ve ever dipped your french fry in ice cream, then you’re also guilty of enjoying a not-so-normal food combo. But what if you loved it so much that you sought out french fry-flavored ice cream?

Here are four flavors that someone, somewhere, must’ve loved so much, they infused it into the dessert we love most!

  • Sriracha Ice Cream: If you’re one of those people who puts hot sauce on anything, then this one is for you. The heat of the Sriracha adds the perfect amount of spice to the ice cream.
  • Olive Oil Ice Cream: The rich, milky ice cream pairs perfectly with the slightly earthy taste of olive oil. Sprinkle some sea salt on top for a sweet-salty refreshment. If you don’t have time to make your own, top some EVOO and salt on our Original Moose Tracks!
  • Avocado Ice Cream: The flavor punch of avocado complements the sweet, creamy texture of the ice cream, making it a very unique treat.
  • Dill Pickle Ice Cream: Dill pickle-flavored ice cream is milder than you’d think and described as tasting something similar to cucumber frozen yogurt – weirdly good?!

How to Keep Ice Cream from Melting in the Middle of the Summer

June 7, 2022

There is nothing quite like a refreshing, delicious cone of Moose Tracks Ice Cream during the summer. Although, you may need a few tips and tricks if you’re planning to serve it at your next outdoor gathering to avoid it melting too quickly.

 

First, you’ll want to make sure you’re using a cooler that is insulated enough. Any cooler you buy at the store will have some insulation, but you can increase it by:

  • Adding extra Styrofoam around the edges of your cooler
  • Lining the inside or outside of your cooler with aluminum or bubble foil
  • Adding a layer of foam between each layer of food stored in the cooler (yoga mat material is perfect for this)
  • Putting a smaller cooler inside a larger cooler (inception)

 

After ensuring your cooler is insulated enough, you’ll want to store your ice cream in a shaded area. Ice cream can last up to twice as long in the shade as it would in the sun! Your best chance at keeping your frozen treats cool in the summer heat is by storing them under trees, patio covers, canopies, gazebos or something similar.

 

Within the cooler, make sure that you’re storing the items as close together as possible. Air pockets between items will cause the ice to melt more quickly so eliminate them as much as possible.

 

Finally, if you want to keep your ice cream icy for more than a few hours, use dry ice instead of regular ice. If you do use dry ice, remember to keep it in a well-ventilated area and use proper protection, such as gloves, while handling because contact with dry ice can cause freezer burns.

 

There are lots of different ways to keep ice cream frozen – what other ways have you found to work well? Share your favorites on our Instagram, Twitter, Facebook or TikTok!

How to Request a New Ice Cream Flavor of Moose Tracks

May 3, 2022

If you’re asking yourself, “how do I get a certain flavor of Moose Tracks in my local grocery store?”, then look no further – we’ve outlined the process for you!

 

Moose Tracks is a licensed flavor, which means we license the flavor, logo, and recipe to ice cream brands like Kemps and Mayfield, as well as grocery retailers for their store brands, like Kroger’s Private Selection, Meijer’s Purple Cow, and more.

You can contact retailers like Kroger, Publix and others via their website, social media or email.
