Whew! Things are very busy over here at the Dairy. Duetto is in the midst of a full-scale launch and we’re also gearing up for what looks to be one of our most active years yet. That’s why we didn’t announce last month’s Ice Cream Journal comment winners. Sorry about that. Here’s our January AND February winners:
JANUARY (Each receive two packages of freeze dried “Astronaut Ice Cream”):
• Mary Anne K. from Croydon, PA
• Patricia B. from Hughesville, MD
• Pam B. from Orland Park, IL
FEBRUARY (Each receive a copy of the book “Everybody Loves Ice Cream: The Whole Scoop on America’s Favorite Treat”):
• Patricia S. from Bellmore, NY
• Richard B. from Dumfries, VA
• Janice C. from Hainesport, NJ
As always, these winners were chosen completely at random from all the comments we received on the Ice Cream Journal during each month. Next month’s prizes will be two of these amazing inventions, which we’ll talk more about in an entry later this month. We like hearing from you, so keep those comments coming. Try leaving one now…it’s surprisingly easy!

If you’ve got a technical question about the ice cream making process or some other inquiry about the nuances of America’s favorite treat, chances are Ernie has the answer. He might not be able to answer all questions, but he’ll try his best and some may be featured on the Ice Cream Journal.
a few months ago my mother bought a pint of Turkey Hill’s limited edition flavor “tastykake”. she went out of town for the week and, not knowing it was hers, i ended up eating the whole thing. i feel really bad that she didn’t get any. especially since we drove all over looking for it and couldn’t find it anywhere. so i was wondering – is it coming back soon? is there any way i can get a hold of some?
I absolutely love your ice cream – it just tastes so natural, not “fake” like some other brands. My goal is to try every flavor! Thank you for making something that tastes so good!
Count me in. I can use one of those ice cream making balls when I go to the shore this summer. My kids would love that!
KATE: Don’t feel too bad. If your mom had been truly concerned about her pint she would have used a small padlock or well-placed “HANDS OFF” note taped to the lid. We do still make Tastykake pints, so keep looking. To make it up to her, you can always buy her a container of one of our new Duetto flavors!
This would make a great gather together family style while we roll and pass the ball we can spend great quality time together having fun with this ball (like cold potatoe, spin the ball)and even great eating the ice cream it makes.
Ice cream has always been my favorite treat! Several years ago I decided to really have a great “Lenten” season, so I gave up ice cream. I made the entire 40 days without having it, but by the end of the Easter season I had no choice but to make-up for what I missed, as not only did my taste buds suffer, all of my fingernails peeled and broke. Since then I eat ice cream everyday, for medicinal purposes. Thanks for a deliciously wonderful product–especially Tin Roof Sundae.
