Wild honey is on the chalkboards today & it's a delightfully smooth, simple flavor! Daniel Sullivan of <a href="http://www.shipwreckhoney.com/">Shipwreck Honey</a> in West Seattle takes his bees into fields where they pollinate mostly wildflowers, which is what gives his honey such an ethereal flavor. We add this clear, golden honey to our usual blend of sugar and (local) milk & cream, with delicious results.

A <i><b>very important</b></i> note on our flavor calendar: while we make every attempt to stick to these dates, we work with small farms & purveyors, so occasionally dates are subject to change due to harvest unpredictability! Keep an eye on our <a href="http://www.mollymoonicecream.com/flavors">flavors</a> page for updates, or follow us on <a href="https://twitter.com/mollymoon">Twitter</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/mollymoonicecream">Facebook</a> and <a href="https://instagram.com/mollymoonicecream/">Instagram</a> for news (and pics!) of each new flavor.<br />

Our huckleberry sorbet tastes like the pancakes you make after a morning spent picking berries! Huckleberries can look like tiny blueberries, but they vary a lot more in color & flavor ... and they grow like crazy in the wild here in the Northwest! Our huckleberries are organically grown in Washington, are dark purple and produce a full, rich berry flavor.

<br />
This is the second installment in our Cheap Date, Sweet Date series! We've recruited a variety of Seattleites - our friends, neighbors and even some members of the <a href="https://instagram.com/p/3cgqtsDk26/?taken-by=mollymoonicecream">#mooncrew</a> - to show how combining a cheap, fun activity with a trip to the ice cream shop makes for the very best kind of date!<br />
<br />
Wallingford is full of color and quirk. It’s the neighborhood where Molly opened her first ice cream shop back in 2008, and it’s still one of the best parts of Seattle to explore on foot, ice cream cone in hand. So we asked the lovely Janell (a former <b>molly moon’s</b> scooper!) and her husband, Warren to spend an afternoon to do just that and report back to us. Here’s Janell and Warren’s recipe for the ultimate Cheap Date, Sweet Date in Wallingford:<br />
<br />
<b>First Course: the photo booth at </b><a href="http://archiemcpheeseattle.com/tour/">Archie McPhee</a><br />
<br />
<i>Janell:</i> Even though I used to work at the Wallingford <b>molly moon’s</b>, this actually was my first time visiting Archie McPhee. I will definitely be back. It's not just for kids, it's for adults too! <br />
<br />
<i>Warren:</i> I love this store mostly because it's full of the prizes you could win by trading in tickets at the arcade. Take that arcades!<br />
<br />

<br />
<b>Second Course: sushi for lunch at</b> <a href="http://www.kozue-on-45th.com/">Kozue</a><br />
<br />
<i>Janell:</i> The best sushi I've ever had. What a delightful experience.<br />
<br />
<i>Warren:</i> Everything was delicious and beautifully presented. Gonna keep this spot in mind in the future for sure.<br />
<br />

<br />
<b>Third Course: ice cream at molly moon’s and a walk to</b> <a href="http://www.seattle.gov/parks/park_detail.asp?ID=1104">Meridian Playground</a><br />
<br />
<i>Janell:</i> I got strawberry with sprinkles. Molly's traditional flavors are my favorite.<br />
<br />
<i>Warren:</i> I got chocolate and the seasonal peach with cookies, I don't remember what it was called but it was bonkers yummy. <i>[Thanks Warren! That woulda been orchard blondie, one of our late summer flavors!] </i><br />
<br />
Janell and Warren took their ice cream and wandered over to Meridian Playground and park (just three blocks East and two blocks North of the shop). Its low stone walls provided the perfect perch for Janell and Warren to share a laugh and enjoy there ice cream.<br />

“Uh-oh, looks like they only have alligator ice cream today!”<br />
<br />
“Nooooooo!” says Reed, age five, in response to his dad’s usual joke about the menu at <b>molly moon's</b>. But it’s not the (make believe) presence of alligator ice cream that bothers Reed so much: it’s the idea that there could <i>ever</i> be an absence of his favorite flavor: <b>melted chocolate</b>. <br />
<br />
Reed has been visiting our Madrona shop since he was two years old, and there’s a good chance he’s melted chocolate’s biggest fan … ever.<br />
<br />
<div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;">

“I don’t think he believes we should carry anything but chocolate ice cream,” says Sky, our Madrona shop manager who has been scooping chocolate ice cream for Reed for almost three years.<br />
<br />
Our melted chocolate ice cream is made with 70% dark Theo chocolate. To get just the right dense texture and rich flavor, our ice cream makers heat up milk and cream and then pour it over the chocolate. (We use a whopping four pounds of chocolate per batch.) As the chocolate melts, it makes a rich ganache that we combine with cream, milk, sugar and organic vanilla bean to make our chocolate ice cream.<br />
<br />
This is exactly the right amount of chocolate for Reed, also known to our Madrona shop crew as “Chocolate Boy.” According to Reed’s mom, he loves very chocolatey things and has been known to reject things like chocolate graham crackers and other (non-MM’s) chocolate ice creams on the grounds that they do not contain enough chocolate.<br />
<br />
Reed and Sky have become buddies during his frequent visits to the shop. After he gets his ice cream – usually a kid’s scoop of melted chocolate with sprinkles in waffle cone – Reed will pull up a stool hang out with Sky, chatting away, his face covered in chocolate. If another customer needs to get to the counter, he moves the stool to make room for them … and then moves it right back when they leave.<br />
<br />
“He’s such an energetic and chatty kid, and he <i>loves </i>chocolate,” Sky says. “His love for melted chocolate might be the truest love that has ever existed.” <br />

We're going old school: ginger ice cream is back for the next six weeks!!! Made with puréed organic ginger and chunks of organic ginger we candy in-house. The amazing flavor of this ice cream is thanks to the delicious ginger we get from <a href="http://gingerpeople.com/">The Ginger People</a>, sourced from Fjii.

Maybe grab an ice cream cone and catch up with your friends. Or your Brothers.<br />
<br />
We recently hit the streets of Capitol Hill with <a href="http://www.bfamag.com/">Brothers from Another</a>, the Seattle hip-hop group that wrote the dreamiest ice cream anthem, <i>ever</i>. When we first heard BFA's song, "<a href="https://vimeo.com/103465233">Molly Moon's</a>" come over our speakers, everyone in the <b>molly moon's </b>office literally got up and started jumping around and dancing. From that day on, we've been in love with BFA and their most wholesome single ever!<br />
<br />
<b>Isaiah</b>, <b>Beeba</b> and <b>Cole</b> joined us for some ice cream and chatted about music, summer and life:<br />
<br />
<b>mm: OK, Guys: three years on, how do you feel about your single 'Molly Moon's'?<br /></b><br />
<div>
<i>Isaiah: </i>Still one of my favorite songs. It's just associated with such a good summer and lots of ice cream.<br /><br />
<i>Beeba:</i> A Seattle summer classic.<br /><br />
<i>Cole:</i> I associate that song with nothing but positive vibes & good people. Hearing it always puts me in a good mood. Hopefully that goes for others that listen to it as well.<br />

<div style="text-align: left;">
"Family comes first!" says David Minnery. He lights up as he talks, having just come from a post-dinner stopover with the kids to play at Golden Gardens Park. </div>
<div style="text-align: left;">
<br /></div>
<div>
David, along with his wife Adrienne, is the owner and creator of local toy line, <a href="http://www.manzanitakids.com/">Manzanita Kids</a>. Not only does David make all of the handcrafted wooden toys, he's also a stay-at-home dad. He slips off to his garage studio nights and weekends to create these simple but beautiful toys. "I shoehorn in Manzanita Kids in all other hours! It's not nine-to-five, it has its own sets of challenges, but it works for us. My commute is just a few steps!"<br />
<div>
<br />
<div>
Their North Seattle home houses both a busy little garage studio and a busy little family. Both require lots of creativity and attention. For David, putting family first isn't just a happy coincidence, but a full-time credo for his vision of Manzanita Kids. <!--[if gte mso 9]><xml>

David wants to make something that lasts in a phase of life when children are constantly outgrowing everything — clothes, toys, moods and tastes. He makes playthings with limitless possibilities for a durable experience that will last throughout childhood. </div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
"As kids go through different developmental stages, they're going to find different ways to play with the same toy, " David says. "As they age and grow, they'll keep rediscovering the same toy, but find something new about it each time." Becau<span style="background-color: white;">se Manzanita toys are si</span>mple structures, they allow for the imagination to spark complex, cognitive fun. As David explains, "our toys unlock creativity and free play for kids, and are still safe, durable, and special enough to become family heirlooms." </div>

And that's our hope for our new <a href="https://squareup.com/market/mollymoons/parker-rattle">Parker Posey rattles</a>. David makes every Parker rattle by hand, featuring Parker's silhouette (inspired by Molly’s real-life <a href="http://mollymoonicecream.cmail1.com/t/y-i-driturl-l-w/">Frenchton pup</a>) in a range of natural wood stains. The smooth finish is irresistible to curious toddler fists! </div>
<div>
<br />
David and Adrienne's commitment craftsmanship and sourcing sustainable materials was the perfect fit for a custom Molly Moon's toy. "This partnership is exciting because it's all local," David says. "Molly's approach to business is all about sustainability and being a part of a local community." </div>
<div>
<br />
Manzanita Kids toys harken back to a simpler time of childhood, offering a charming, nostalgic feel of quality, but designed with a modern mindset for modern kiddos. As for David's own kids, he gets to watch his toys unfurl the imagination in real time, in his own family room. "Right now, at their ages, our modular building walls are a hit. They'll build cities, rocket ships, whatever they can imagine…and occupy the entire floor of the room," David laughs.</div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
"You'll spend a lot of time designing a toy to be played with in a certain way, but kids end up approaching the toys in so many different ways—they're designing their play, too."</div>

Our new blackberry sorbet is full of bold berry flavor, with an earthy touch. This sorbet is made with organic blackberries from two of our fave Skagit Valley growers: <a href="http://www.vivafarms.org/">Viva Farms</a> and <a href="http://www.haytonfarmsberries.com/">Hayton Farms</a>! Hayton is a 5th generation family farm that was established in 1876, and the newer Viva is a farm incubator that helps new farmers get started by subleasing small plots and helping them with equipment, education, marketing, and start-up loans.<br />

The heat this year is making the blackberries fat with juice, and it's also making us want to cool off with a scoop of sorbet! Now scooping through August 16.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com0tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-5998473873305054230.post-37015200936797195272015-07-16T12:50:00.000-07:002015-07-16T12:55:29.529-07:00capitol hill: cheap date, sweet dateThis is the first installment in our Cheap Date, Sweet Date series! We've recruited a variety of Seattleites - our friends, neighbors and even some members of the <a href="https://instagram.com/p/3cgqtsDk26/?taken-by=mollymoonicecream">#mooncrew</a> - to show how combining a cheap, fun activity with a trip to the ice cream shop makes for the very best kind of date!<br />
<br />
To kick things off, our friends Lonnie and Kaitlin cruised over to Capitol Hill in their 1984 Volvo 240DL for a sweet night out in one of our favorite 'hoods. Here’s Lonnie and Kaitlin’s recipe for the ultimate Cheap Date, Sweet Date on Capitol Hill:<br />
<br />
<b>First course: A trip to <a href="http://glasswingshop.com/">Glasswing</a></b><br />
<br />
“Kaitlin tried on a bunch of clothes we couldn't afford,” Lonnie says with a laugh. “And we ended up buying a plant, a really cool ceramic pot, and an old issue of <a href="http://www.inventorymagazine.com/">Inventory Magazine</a>."<br />

<b>Second course: happy hour at Oddfellows</b><br />
<br />
Lonnie and Kaitlin snagged a table outside at <a href="http://www.oddfellowscafe.com/">Oddfellows Cafe+Bar</a> where they had some snacks and cold drinks. “It was such a beautiful night, we laughed and talked about the next few months ahead before our wedding," Kaitlin says.<br />

<br />
"Typically we always taste test the seasonal flavors and then we order 'scout' mint and melted chocolate with hot fudge on top," Lonnie says. "It makes me laugh because we are totally those people who taste the other flavors but are stuck on our favorite combo!"<br />
<br />
“We walked over to Cal Anderson Park across the street like we always do," Kaitlin says. "We lounged on the turf and joked around and enjoyed the sunset!”<br />

Finding the best ingredients to use in our ice cream isn’t always easy. Just ask our head chef, Ian Willa. <br />
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
"Yeah, I spend a lot of time on the phone, or the Internet, looking for ingredients that we can feel great about, like domestically grown black sesame," Ian says. "I also like to ensure that ingredients we use a lot of, like vanilla, are grown and harvested in responsible ways, especially when we are buying imported goods." (We love our vanilla! It comes from Tonga, which strictly prohibits forced or child labor.) </div>
<div>
<br />
But when it comes to cherries, we are fortunate to get the most amazing, rich, dark fruit from Washington’s Columbia Valley every year. We have a long-standing relationship with Dave Alberg of Alberg Cherry Farms. Dave’s orchard is currently supplying us with berries for our <a href="http://mollymoonicecream.blogspot.com/2015/06/new-flavors-cherry-chunk-and-vegan.html">cherry chunk and vegan cherry</a> chunk ice creams for the fourth summer in a row. <br />
<br />
“There’s nothing better than cherry ice cream,” Dave says.<br />
<br />
On a recent Thursday afternoon, Ian took some time off from recipe testing and research to visit Dave and and his cherry trees. <br />
<br />
Dave planted his orchard in the 1970s with his dad - he was only 14! At the time the cherries were the only thing growing on the hill, which now sits at the center of the 220-acre Stillwater Creek Vineyard. Dave prunes all 20 acres of cherry trees by hand. That’s about 1,000 trees, each of which produces around 100 pounds of cherries each season. <br />
<br />
Aside from the cherries that go into our ice cream and what Dave saves for his friends and family, the rest of his cherries are sold at Pike Place Market. Dave has been a vendor at the market since 1980. <br />
<br />
We use a mix of three different types of cherries for our ice cream: Bing, Lambert and Van cherries. In addition to the darker varieties of cherries that we use, Dave also has trees that grow Rainier cherries, wild sour cherries and apricots. <br />
<br />
To keep the cherries juicy and plump, Dave picks his cherries at night. The heat of the Eastern Washington sun makes them shrivel up during the day. <br />
<br />
Typically Dave and his friend, Mark pick all the cherries themselves. Ian helped out during his visit to the farm, and learned how Dave uses ski polls to get the job done. “I use this little ski poll to snag the branch and pull it down,” Dave says. “Then you can just pull the cherries off.”</div>
<div>
<div>
<br /></div>
<div>
Ian soon finds that, at 6'4," he can easily reach up and starts pulling the branches down with his hands. "I want as many of these cherries as I can get my hands on!"</div>
<div>

If this heat is giving you the blues ... may we recommend some blueberry lemon custard? We make this delicious flavor with local + organic <a href="http://bowhillblueberries.com/">Bow Hill Blueberries</a> and our delectable lemon curd. (Heads up! We make our homemade lemon curd with local + organic eggs. The rest of our flavors are <a href="http://www.thekitchn.com/try-this-philadelphiastyle-ice-89212">Philadelphia-style</a>, which means no eggs!)

Chances are good that if you live in Seattle, you’ve imbibed (or enjoyed a burger, or perhaps some <a href="http://www.seattletimes.com/pacific-nw-magazine/dont-like-cauliflower-this-recipe-will-change-your-mind/">caramelized cauliflower</a>) at one of Linda Derschang’s six neighborhood hang-out spots: Linda's Tavern, Smith, Oddfellows Cafe+Bar, Bait Shop, and Tallulah's on Capitol Hill and King's Hardware in Ballard.<br />
<br />
Linda and her team work just upstairs from our Capitol Hill shop and headquarters, so we all see each other during afternoon coffee breaks at Oddfellows Café, and we do yoga together on Thursday afternoons! So we knew the cool girls of the <a href="http://www.thederschanggroup.com/">Derschang Group</a> should be the first to wear our cute, new molly moon's gear that hit the shops last month.<br />
<br />
Linda herself has played such a huge role in the culture of Capitol Hill. She's become known for the design aesthetic of all her bars and restaurants, and her personal style is always the stuff of sartorial dreams.<br />
<span style="color: black;"><br /></span>
Her office is pretty spectacular too, and it made a gorgeous backdrop for our photo shoot. The shoot soon turned into more of an easy hangout session. The models ate ice cream and James, our photographer/marketing director chatted with the Derschang ladies about everything from Mad Max to the pursuit of <a href="http://advancedstyle.blogspot.com/">advanced style</a>.<br />
<br />
Big thanks to Linda, Shenandoah, Jihee and Julia for taking time out of their busy days to model for us! (These ladies have lots on their plate right now ... we are <i>so </i>excited for <a href="http://www.seattlemet.com/articles/2015/4/20/linda-derschang-is-taking-over-elliott-bay-cafe-april-2015">Little Oddfellows</a> to open inside <a href="http://www.elliottbaybook.com/">Elliott Bay Book Company</a> this summer!) <span style="color: black;"><br /></span><br />

<b>cherry chunk</b><br />
This is one of our favorite & longest running summer flavors! The cherries come from Alberg Farms in Royal City in Eastern Washington. We’ve been working with these guys for the last 3 years, and their cherries -- grown without pesticides or chemicals -- are some of the best you can get. Alberg cherries are a nice, deep red and richly flavored. Dave Alberg and his crew pick all the cherries at their orchard, which is surrounded by 220 acres of vineyards. Dave has been selling his cherries at Pike Place Market for close to 30 years. Available through August 2.<br />

<span style="color: black;">Summer is an exciting time around here because our chef searches high and low for the freshest, ripest, most beautiful fruit from all over Washington state! Then our ice cream makers take the berries, melon and stone fruit and turn them into a delicious rainbow of ice cream and sorbets. Get ready for flavors like cherry chunk ice cream, made with organically grown, <a href="http://mollymoonicecream.blogspot.com/2014/06/a-favorite-summer-tradition.html">dark red Bing cherries</a> from Alberg Orchards in the Columbia Valley. And in July our team will turn our homemade lemon curd and organic blueberries from <a href="http://bowhillblueberries.com/">Bow Hill</a> farm into blueberry lemon custard. </span><br />

A <i><b>very important</b></i> note on our flavor calendar: while we make every attempt to stick to these dates, we work with small farms & purveyors, so occasionally dates are subject to change due to harvest unpredictability! Keep an eye on our <a href="http://www.mollymoonicecream.com/flavors">flavors</a> page for updates, or follow us on <a href="https://twitter.com/mollymoon">Twitter</a>, <a href="https://www.facebook.com/mollymoonicecream">Facebook</a> and <a href="http://instagram.com/mollymoonicecream#">Instagram</a> for news (and pics!) of each new flavor.<br />

We are SO excited about the red, ripe, organic strawberries we're using in our strawberry sorbet, out today! The berries come from <a href="http://www.vivafarms.org/">Viva Farms</a> in the Skagit Valley. Viva is a farm incubator that helps new and small farms get started by subleasing small plots of their 33 acres to small farms. Every berry is washed, hulled and chopped by our ice cream makers, giving this sorbet LOTS of bold, bright strawberry flavor.Anonymousnoreply@blogger.com1
