The Ice Cream Store Challenge

[RJM2096]

My friend and I went for a ride yesterday just to enjoy the great weather. We choose to go to Murrayville (first time) and low and behold they had an Ice Cream store. An ice cream store in such a small town is a blessing and completes any good ride.

When traveling to or through Costa Mesa, CA, Oh Those Donuts are the best donuts to be had.
The best, period. Don't even bother replying.

When riding to or through Bakersfield, Dewar's is a world-class ice cream parlor.

I'll admit to being a doughnut heathen. So long as it isn't the horror known as Dunkin' Donuts, I'll be happy.

These are the best donuts in the world, hands down. This little shop is on Jackson Street in Paducah, Kentucky and worth a detour to try. They open at 5 a.m. daily, and stay open until they run out.
:eat My favorite are the lemon filled. They also have blueberry filled, custard, creme, long johns, and coconut donuts! MMMM!!:bow The streaked lights in this photo are beams of light from heaven showing God's favor on this donut shop.

The best doughnut is as fictitious as the best burger.

Whatever. The best donuts are whichever ones you grew up with.
These are my personal choice. :eat

There are. Dunkin Donuts are evil throat closing moisture destroying chokers. Blech. I've mixed concrete that was more delicate.

What treat do you look for on your rides?I've been staying away from the sweets seriously, for the past 4 months, but I do have a soft spot (no pun intended) for good homemade ice cream. PJ's Ice Cream Parlor, in Middleburgh, NY (Schoharie Cty) hit the spot several times last summer and I may make a (few?) return visit(s).

Here's my vote for best ice cream ride.. At the top of Mt Peter, overlooking the entire Warwick Valley on rte 17A is Bellvale Farms Creamery, http://www.bellvalefarms.com/creamery.html every flavor homemade using milk and creme from their farm at the bottom of the hill..

If anyone wants to go I'm always in.....:thumb

Here's a review: Bellvale Creamery on the top of Mt. Peter is a "must-stop,” even for hikers on the Appalachian Trail, which passes through from New Jersey into Harriman State Park. Their ice cream is beyond fabulous, attests this writer – homemade – with dangerously addictive, yummy flavors, (one with chunks of fudge inside) and the view over Warwick is great.

First, the aroma of fresh-baked waffle cones greets you as you walk through the door. Then you might notice some of the delectable, seasonal berries that could be in any one of the more than 20 flavors of ice cream. See Menu!
A genuine epicurean delight! Never mind that it's made from the finest cream from a nearby, award-winning dairy farm. Superb ingredients are matched with the skill of co-owner, Tim Noteboom – a true dessert artist.

Below are a couple of their Home-made flavors. We are serious about our Ice-cream here

Vanilla Made with only the finest pure Madagascar bourbon vanilla bean extract
Mint Chip Made with pure mint extract and dark chocolate chunks
Butterscotch Ripple Our famous vanilla ice cream with an old fashioned butterscotch ripple
Chocolate Creamy milk chocolate
After Dinner Mint Mint ice cream, a hint of chocolate with chocolate-covered mint pieces
Cookie Dough Cookie-flavored ice cream with cookie dough pieces
Strawberry Fresh ripe strawberries blended until smooth
Coconut Coconut ice cream with chocolate-covered almonds
Cookies & Cream Made with real Oreo® cookies
Bellvale Bog Dark chocolate ice cream with brownie chunks and fudge swirl Coffee
Strong coffee ice cream with cappuccino chips for the true coffee lover
In the Stix French custard ice cream with Twix® candybar pieces
Great White Way White chocolate ice cream with dark chocolate chunks and raspberry swirl
Cream of the Crop Sweet cream ice cream
Blueberries & Creme
Sweet creme ice cream with a blueberry swirl
S'mores Graham cracker ice cream with marshmallow and chocolate swirl - takes you back to the campfire
Cheesecake New York-style cheese cake ice cream with graham cracker swirl
Peach Chunks of real peaches in peach ice cream
Butter Pecan Roasted pecans in buttery ice cream
Cherry Vanilla Our luscious vanilla ice cream with Bordeau cherry halves
Pumpkin Made with real pumpkin and a touch of spice - just like pumpkin pie
Apple Pie Tastes like Mom’s apple pie!

Pistachio Made with real pistachio nuts
