DQ isn't ice cream. It's ice milk.

The Safeway store brand oreo one is better than any I have had from BR. Had a mistake in an order and bought one as backup and it as hands-down the favorite.

Thoughts on Ben and Jerry's ice cream cakes?

Dairy Queen - vanilla with chocolate cookie crunchies

Thanks! OP here - the Thomas Sweet cake sounds amazing but out of my way. The BR vanilla crunch sounds great, that might be the winner! Thanks again.

What's the budget? T Sweets has amazing ice cream cakes that you can order with any combination of their flavors. 8" is $35. You do need to give 24 hours notice though. We usually do bittersweet (dark chocolate) and another flavor like peanut butter or mint chip.

No, BR does all ice-cream, the combination as you said or they do the chocolate/vanilla crunch one (love that one).

Yeah the actual cake in the Baskin Robbins ice cream cake is delicious and has inspiredmany compliments for us at past parties.

Carvel. there is one in ballston.

Cold stone mint chip.

Carvel, hands down.

Baskin Robins. I like their vanilla chocolate crunch. they do much better designs.

I need to purchase an ice cream cake - debating between Carvel or Baskin Robbins. Cold Stone is out of my budget. Which would you recommend, and is there a particular flavor you like? Thanks.
