Daily Candy Kids sent out this cute email which mentioned Dandy Don’s Ice Cream Social in a Box. For a birthday party that’s better than everyone else’s, they recommend four actions to take.
We like option #2:
“Fly in an Ice Cream Social in a Box from L.A.s finest, Dandy Don’s (we’ve tasted it, and it’s well worth the shipping).”
The Oxnard farm known as Harry’s Berries produces some of the sweetest, nicest strawberries in the whole country. Dandy Don’s Ice Cream has teamed up with Harry’s Berries to produce a strawberry ice cream that’s out of this world. You can order it by the tub from our Wholesale Department (just ask for Doris at 818 994 0111) or have it as part of an Ice Cream Social. If you want to taste it on a fully catered Ice Cream Sundae Bar, just talk to Amanda. If you want to try in the Ice Cream Social in a Box, just email us at [email protected] before you purchase it online.
We got this nice Tweet today from @fattiesatheart:
Fox Plaza thanks for providing us ice cream from @DandyDonsIC It was delicous and very professional. The ice cream & toppings were fresh.
The producers of “90210” asked Dandy Don’s Ice Cream to make pastel ice cream for an episode entitled “To New Beginnings.” People Magazine ran this shot from the set. It’s of AnnaLynne McCord, Jessica Lowndes, and Jessica Stroup licking away.
Dandy Don’s HomeMade Ice Cream is voluntarily removing peanut products from our Sundae Bar Toppings because of the possible health risk.
I was reading through some Chowhound threads today and remembered this awesome post about Dandy Don’s Ice Cream in pints from back in 2003. Here’s the link if you want to check it out for yourself: http://chowhound.chow.com/topics/56229.
Shelley Kelley starts out by saying, “I have heard from a friend of a friend that this is the absolute best ice cream on earth. This friend is an absolute chowhound, so the referral has some teeth to it.”
After finding some of our ice cream in How’s Market in Pasadena, she liked the White Pistachio flavor the best. Here’s what she said, “This was lovely, folks. A nice base (think of Ben & Jerry’s or Haagen Das Butter Pecan base) with loads of Pistachios. Believe it or not, nut texture seems to offer different intensities of flavor here. In the mix are whole pistachios, roughly chopped pistachios, and finally, finely chopped pistachios. The effect is really very pleasant, the flavor good, and well balanced.”
After that, Paddy, another poster, added this comment, “Got some DDs white pistach from the Handy Market on Magnolia yesterday and sampled this eve – wow!
I like to think of myself as a connoisseur of pistachio ice cream, having eaten it as a staple on countless European holidays in my youth (it was the only thing that kept me quiet on those interminable Loire chateau tours and Venetian gondola rides, apparently).
Compared to the French sludge and the Italian species, this stuff is ambrosia. Really. I won’t embellish on the excellent description already proffered. What I shall say is that having tasted Dandy Don’s WP, I’m now determined to sample every flavor out there. And now I know what EVERYONE is getting for Christmas this year.”
Don’t forget that you can buy our pints online. Plus, we’ve added a new shipping interface that allows us to calculate shipping individually, saving our customers lots of money (no more guesswork on shipping rates). Enjoy!
You can now buy Dandy Don’s Ice Cream online. Our web store has re-opened with a fancy new shopping cart interface that will calculate shipping costs based on your location. Get a cooler packed with 6 pints of your favorite flavors (you can now pick your own flavor combinations) shipped overnight to your door. We also have our popular mochi-covered ice cream balls for sale, too. Come and get some!
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.
Dandy Don’s HomeMade Ice Cream will once again be serving hot fudge sundaes at the Bon Appetit Wine & Spirits Focus which takes place in San Francisco from January 31 to February 2, 2003. We’ve taken part in the Los Angeles Focus since 1996. Bon Appetit likes us so much, they invited us up to San Francisco for the third year in a row. We’re happy to go.
In addition to serving hot fudge sundaes, Dandy Don’s sells super-premium ice cream to over 150 top-rated restaurants and gourmet markets around Los Angeles. Our customers include Cafe Bizou, Fred 62, The Farm of Beverly Hills and lots more.
In business for over 20 years now, Dandy Don’s has taken home a total of 18 gold medals at the Los Angeles County Fair.
For those who wish to try a sundae locally, Dandy Don’s will be serving hot fudge sundaes at Planned Parenthood on March 6th in Santa Monica (at the Civic Auditorium) and at Make-A-Wish on March 8th at Barker Hangar in Santa Monica.
Dandy Don’s HomeMade Ice Cream entered some of its super-premium ice cream in the Los Angeles County Fair’s dairy products competition. The ice cream was judged against a standard of excellence. Those flavors which scored 100 out of 100 points received a Gold Medal. Dandy Don’s took home six Gold Medals.
“We submitted some of our off-the-wall flavors and our new Chocolate made with Schokinag German cocoa,” said Dandy Don. The winning not-so-standard flavors are Banana, Cinnamon, Cookies & Cream, Dulce de Leche, and Green Tea. The new version of their classic Chocolate ice cream also won Gold.
Dandy Don’s HomeMade Ice Cream is made in Van Nuys and delivered to fine restaurants, hotels, country clubs, and markets all over Southern California.
If you want some of our Gold-Medal-winning ice cream, please call us at 800 DANDY DON or 818 994 0111.
