Although the downtown Walnut Creek ice cream shop Lottie’s Creamery has been open for a while now, in celebration of what would have been Lottie’s 107th birthday yesterday, Lottie’s Creamery had their grand opening with an official ribbon cutting and plenty of ice cream and smiles to go around.
To find out more about this ice creamery with their own pasteurizer, check out their homepage. “With a full commercial kitchen on site, Phillips [co-owner] makes 100% from scratch all ice cream and fold-ins, including marshmallows, brittles, and cookies, as well as the fresh waffle cones, brownies, and sauces.”
Of particular interest (considering the impending arrival of CREAM a block away) was a sampling of a new roasted banana ice cream brownie sandwich. It tasted amazing. Different flavors will be rotated in over time. Sundaes with homemade whip cream and floats (root beer, orange cream and black cherry) will be coming within the next couple of weeks as well. I am now ready for summer!
