Ice Cream Tasting, Cups & Cones, Milkshakes & Sundaes, Pumpkin Pie, Cappucino Delight, Chocolate Banana Walnut, Hopkins Farm Creamery, Gluten Free Flavors, Lewes, Delaware
Ice cream aficionados will all agree; it is never too chilly for ice cream. It is my downfall. I love it any time of the year. I also do not discriminate. From a Frosty to homemade ice cream….an addiction, I would say.
Remember how gorgeous it was on Sunday at the Delaware Beaches? Well, I took off with Michael to Hopkins Farm Creamery which is located at Green Acres Dairy Farm at 18186 Dairy Farm Rd. You cannot miss it because it is at the intersection of Rt. 9 and Dairy Farm Rd. Tel. 302-645-7163. Website? http://www.hopkinsfarmcreamery.com. Green Acres Dairy Farm has been owned and operated by the same family for 4 generations.
Michael and I were looking for seasonal flavors. The first thing I saw was a lady carrying the biggest ice cream cone. Two flavors; Cappuccino Delight and Butter Pecan.
You will find so many flavors. Plenty of Gluten Free Flavors, as well. They are well marked.
A triple scoop of Pumpkin Pie.
A double scoop of Cappuccino Delight.
Michael and I agreed; the flavors were defined. The Pumpkin Pie tasted just like that. The same with the Cappuccino Delight. Both were very smooth and not overly sweet, either.
We also took a take out of Chocolate, Banana, Walnut and more of the Pumpkin Pie.
Our private tasting still showed that the Pumpkin Pie was so delicious. Gluten Free too!!
And, the Chocolate, Banana, Walnut was also very well received. The ice cream had the predominant flavor of chocolate with a hint of banana.
Hopkins Farm Creamery is open Sunday through Thursday, from 11 a.m. until 8 p.m. Friday and Saturday, from 11 a.m. until 9 p.m.
Check the website because there are coupons available, plus plenty of information on this most unique farm. You can also find them on Facebook and Twitter.
Have a good one!!
