\"Van<\/p>\n

Brooklyn-based ice creamery Van Leeuwen has risen to snack food cultural prominence over the past year with its novelty offerings mimicking Mac & cheese, pizza, and most recently, Grey Poupon mustard<\/a>. It also does more \u201cnormal\u201d seasonal flavors, like the spring variety we reviewed in April<\/a>. It\u2019s back for the summer with four new selections: Summer Peach Crisp, Campfire S\u2019mores, Espresso Fior Di Latte Chip, and Honey Cornbread with Strawberry Jam.<\/p>\n

Espresso Fior Di Latte Chip<\/h3>\n

\"Van<\/p>\n

Okay, so confession time: I didn\u2019t know what \u201cFior di Latte\u201d was. I ate this ice cream without checking, assuming it was just several words meaning \u201ca kind of Italian coffee.\u201d Much to my surprise, Fior di Latte is actually several words for \u201ca kind of Italian cheese.\u201d I\u2019m glad I didn\u2019t know that going in, or I\u2019m afraid it may have negatively colored my opinion of this delightful ice cream. Going back with my newfound knowledge, though, yes, you can definitely pick up a salty swirl from the cheese. It blends perfectly with the strong coffee flavor, and the dark chocolate chips and graham pieces interspersed throughout make this the second best pick out of the bunch.<\/p>\n

Summer Peach Crisp<\/h3>\n

\"Van<\/p>\n

My first thought on this was, \u201coh, snap, where\u2019s the peach?\u201d What I didn\u2019t yet know -\u2014 but what I subsequently learned here, and then again with the S\u2019mores version -\u2014 is that sometimes your Van Leeuwen pint is like Roanoke Island: to get to the treasure, you\u2019ve gotta dig deep. Once you get to the syrupy peach swirl, it\u2019s great, but there\u2019s far too little of it overall. The \u201cgluten-free oat pieces\u201d meant to approximate the crust of a crumble, however, are too abundant, and they detract from the experience. This is worth getting if it\u2019s all you see at the store, but I wouldn\u2019t go nuts trying to find it.<\/p>\n

Campfire S\u2019mores<\/h3>\n

\"Van<\/p>\n

Though my overall favorite changes often, Rocky Road is always in my top five favorite ice cream flavors. Campfire S\u2019mores -\u2014 which includes two key Rocky Road components -\u2014 is sinfully good. The marshmallow is inexplicably fluffy and chewy, and the rich fudge swirl defies all culinary scientific explanation by somehow remaining malleable and syrupy; this is not your grandfather\u2019s frozen fudge ribbon. The ice cream itself purports to be \u201ctoasted marshmallow,\u201d but it was indistinguishable from regular vanilla. Even still, this ice cream is Hall of Fame worthy, and it took considerable willpower to not down the container in a single sitting.<\/p>\n

Honey Cornbread with Strawberry Jam<\/h3>\n

\"Van<\/p>\n

Look, I get that this was an attempt at adventurousness, but there\u2019s a reason we don\u2019t put cornbread in ice cream. The texture was gritty and off-putting and, well, very cornbread-y. Great with a Southern dinner, but maybe not in my frozen dessert. The strawberry jam was rich and strong, and while it could have potentially helped keep this tolerable, like the peach pint, there wasn\u2019t enough of it. Of the four, this was the only one I was not compelled to save for later.<\/p>\n

Except for the Cornbread variety, I would repurchase all of these. Even the cheese one. In the case of the S\u2019mores version, I may buy a whole pallet\u2019s worth.<\/p>\n

All pints were $4.98 and purchased at Walmart.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
