Be On the Lookout for this Truck

Coming soon to the streets of NYC & the Hamptons is the LA-based company CoolHaus, which serves up “hand made ice cream sandwiches in edible wrappers” from their pimped out truck! 

Marrying creativity and sustainability, CoolHaus pushes the boundaries of sweet and savory by featuring unique ice cream flavors that you can’t get anywhere else. Feeling adventurous? Try the Brown Butter and Candied Bacon ice cream on Chocolate Chip cookies. Or maybe the seasonal Olive Oil Rosemary ice cream on a version of Brioche cookies will do the trick. Going classic never hurt either – Mies Vanilla Rohe (Vanilla ice cream + Chocolate Chip cookie) or Frank Berry (Strawberry ice cream + Snickerdoodle cookie) are very respectable choices.

Opening in NYC on April 28th (the Hamptons to follow later in the summer) - which is not soon enough to satisfy our sweet AND savory tooth with one delicious ice cream sandwich.
