Halloween season is just around the corner and Salt & Straw welcomes you to their House of Sweet Scares with the launch of the Ice SCREAM Halloween menu this Friday, September 24th. The spine-chilling flavors include Jack o’ Lantern Pumpkin Bread, Black Cat Licorice & Lavender and so much more.
Launching online for nationwide shipping, in scoops shops and for local delivery starting this Friday through Sunday, October 31st, ice cream and Halloween lovers everywhere won’t want to miss out on this exclusive and spookily delicious menu!
Flavors include:
Double Bubble Toil & Trouble (vegan)
In the middle of our lab, a cauldron boils. Into the pot goes every color of fruit, while puffs of ethereal blue fizzle and shoot. Under midnight’s dark cloak, elements together boil and smoke. Our kitchen together had their fun, creating this potion of bright bubble gum. Take a taste, bubble and blow, for this is one potion that will steal the show.
The Great Candycopia
As darkness falls across the land, the candy-making hour is close at hand. Swarms of house-made trick-or-treat favorites-—Kit Kats, Reeses, Snickers, Heath bars-—are transformed into milk chocolate-buried crispy feuilletine, peanut butter trapped inside walls of chocolate, and almonds smothered in BOOrbon vanilla toffee before getting folded into a diabolically delicious salted butterscotch ice cream, stuck for eternity.
Don Bugito’s Creepy Crawly Critters
One, two, ten prickles along your skin. Dozens of critters are hiding in the grass by way of this matcha ice cream with toffee-brittle mealworms and chocolate crickets. Don Bugito in Oakland provided the delicious bugs, we delivered the creepy.
Jack o’ Lantern Pumpkin Bread
Hidden away in the back of an old cupboard is Grandma’s secret book of family spells. Wait, we mean recipes. A whispered incantation: one crooked smile of Jack, a pinch of warm spice, the tender hunks of a just-baked pumpkin bread, and generous swaths of whipped cream cheese frosting will leave you enchanted.
Black Cat Licorice & Lavender
Rounding the corner with a ghastly squeal, a jet-black figure pounces on your shadow. In this ominous, unexpected flavor, we’ve conjured up superstition with a silky, pitch-dark anise and fennel caramel with luminous salted lavender ice cream. We wouldn’t turn our backs if we were you.
See you there, San Diego!
