Cold Stone Introduces: Ice Cream that DOESN'T Melt!

Not sure if you knew this (I sure did not), but since June, Cold Stone Creamery has been dispersing their newest scientific anomaly—ice cream flavors that WON’T melt, drip, or evaporate in front of your hot summer eyes. So far only two of which are being sold in their chain stores—Butterscotch Velvet and Chocolate-y Goodness.

Un-meltable ice cream?!? Sounds like a delicious oxymoron to me.

To understand its inner workings, we must take a trip down memory lane to 10th grade chemistry class. Join me, will you?

FIRST COURSE
Jell-O-Mold Competition In Brooklyn

Well it’s about time. Finally, someone is having a Jell-O throw down! The Gowanus Studio Space in Brooklyn is trying to bring back the coolness of Jell-O by hosting their own Jell-O-Mold Competition on June 20th. The competition will bring some of the most creative Jell-O molds since the 70’s.

A panel of judges will be determining the winner based upon the criteria of creativity, aesthetics, structural ingenuity, edibility/culinary appeal, and of course, the best use of Jell-O. The grand prize for the competition is $500 and a singed Tara McPherson (really great artist if you don’t know) poster. All entry forms must be submitted by June 12th, $15 registration fee ($10 for students), but molds do not have to be created at that time. Think you can take the jiggle and make something of it?
