How America Eats
According to Bon Appetit’s 6th annual reader survey (March 2003 issue), the one food most readers must have (when calories don’t count) is ice cream.
We happen to have a ton of ice cream. We make it almost every day here in Van Nuys. You can taste it in fine restaurants all over Los Angeles. You can try it by the pint in some specialty food markets.
You can even have us bring our signature hot fudge sundaes, featuring our award-winning ice cream, right to your home, office, or an off-site location.
Century Plaza’s Outdoor Ice Rink Features Dandy Don’s New Scoops on a Stick
Dandy Don’s HomeMade Ice Cream is very proud to be alongside Krispy Kreme Donuts and Teezer Mix serving the outdoor skaters at the The Century Plaza Hotel’s new outdoor Ice Rink. In addition to providing our classic sundae bar, we are also serving our new Scoop on a Stick.
The Scoop on a Stick is an ice cream scoop hand dipped in chocolate then rolled in nuts, sprinkles, and even Oreo Cookie crumbles. Skaters may choose Vanilla, Chocolate, or Peppermint Stick ice cream for the Scoop on a Stick.
We’re highlighting Scoops on a Stick at the rink because they’ve been so well received by all demographics when and wherever we’ve introduced them, says Dandy Don. Always go with a winner!
The Scoop on a Stick was also featured at the American Idol finals and Paul Newman’s Hole in the Wall Gang fund raiser at the Kodak Theater in Hollywood.
Scoops on a Stick and Dandy Don’s traditional sundae bar with 10 toppings will be available at The ice Rink through Feb. 18.
