To Whom it May Concern:
It is Christmas Eve, and although there are still an unsettling number presents to be bought, dishes to be cooked, and relatives to be visited; I feel compelled to take the time to compose this letter. Last night, I was reminded of my intense partiality for one of your ice creams. I fondly remember the first time I sampled Turkey Hill’s Party Cake ice cream. It was in the summer of 2005, and I picked i up at a grocery store after having been attracted to it’s spunky and enchanting mosaic of pastel coloring – an image that delights my heart and arouses my sailvary glands to this day.
I had tried other cake-flavored ice creams before and since my first experience with the Party Cake, and I can safely say, no others come close.
The milky vanilla base would be a delicious treat on its own, but it is simply the sweet backdrop for an epicurean deluge. The soft, chewy cake pieces provide for a luscious marriage of texture and color when combined with the ineffably ambrosial, buttercream frosting.
This letter may seem ridiculous, but I wouldn’t feel right experiencing such splendor without offering my gratitude to those responsible for it.
When it is available, I have a hard time justifying wasting my appetite on any food other than Party Cake ice cream. Sadly, I have often have difficulty finding it, as I don’t have a car at my college residence, and am limited to grocery stores within walking distance. I will, however, continue to spread the good word to friends and family about this marvelous creation of yours.
I think I may also send a letter in post about this. I just want to show my appreciation to as many Turkey Hill employees as possible. If you could point me to the specific individual(s) who birthed Party Cake ice cream, I would be honored to thank them personally.
With sincere gratitude,
Jillian
