We’re sort of on the fence about candles that smell like food. On one hand, they smell great. On the other, they make you really hungry! Not that that’s a bad thing. The ice cream candle on the right would not only make you hungry, it’ll also look kind of cool while it’s melting away. That’s if you decide to actually light it!
We bought one of these (it does smell great!) and we’ll give it away at the end of the month to one commenter from August chosen at random. We’re not sure if it’ll come in handy on a deserted island, but if you want to buy one for yourself, check them out here.
Speaking of prizes, Kathy P. of Endwell, NY is the winner of our National Ice Cream Month grand prize (a one year supply of ice cream, a one night stay in a Lancaster County bed & breakfast and a personally guided tour of the Turkey Hill factory). Congratulations Kathy, and thanks again to everyone for making this July the best National Ice Cream Month ever!

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.
