We have a feeling this one's going to be a big one. A holiday-time Underground Market to snag wintertime treats and presents? Um, yes please. 

We'll be there, of course, burlap-covered card table and all, serving all those with an insatiable sweet tooth (like ourselves). We've taken advantage of a short hiatus from the market scene to perfect a few new goods, and we think it's safe to say our time in the lab has been particularly fruitful. We'll be sampling all of these new awesomes at the market, so make sure to stop on by on the 18th to snag a chunk of microbatch goodness.





Our lineup for the market:

Ice Cream Flavors
Guinness Chocolate (we're not allowed not to offer this...)
Peppermint Stick (if you close your eyes when you eat this, you actually become a nine-year-old kid again...)
Lemon Speculoos (lemon ice cream with Belgian ginger cookies mixed in - it changes lives...)

Desert Toppings 
Chocolate Fudge Sauce (creamy to the point of existing in a completely different state of matter entirely...)
Salted Caramel Butter Sauce (salt? caramel? butter? together? take how good this sounds and multiply it by 20...)

Soda
Sarsaparilla (as always, bottles of our singular brew that would have been advertised as a cure-all in the 1870s...)


Also note that for the first time, we're offering holiday-time sales and delivery of small orders. Engage in some direct-to-consumer fun and check out our holiday blog post about our offerings.

We love the holidays. In our humble opinion, it really is the best time of the year. And not just because of all the good cheer in the air: it's also Jilli's anniversary! Happy one year anniversary to Jilli Ice Cream and Soda!


In celebration of both these fine occasions, we're mixing up two new seasonal flavors of ice cream -- peppermint stick ice cream and Speculoos and lemon ice cream -- as well as our first two sauces -- chocolate fudge and burnt butter caramel! Peppermint stick ice cream with hot chocolate fudge has been a favorite of Jacky's since she was nine and had it at Christmas Eve for the first time; she loved the crunch of the candy and the warmth of the fudge. Willi has always been a ginger fan and discovered the Speculoos cookie, which is a gingerbread cookie that traditionally pairs with beer in Belgium, via David Lebovitz and thought it would pair oh so nicely with an altered version of our own Meyer Lemon Creamsicle. And in case you were wondering, it does so swimmingly.


So please join us this holiday in raising your own spoons to nosh one or both of our holiday pairings at your own holiday event. Or, gift one of our delicious sauces! We are also offering, for the first time, 4 packs of Willi's famously delicious Sarsaparilla soda.  


Update: Taste our new ice cream flavors, sauces, and sarsaparilla at the next market, on December 18th! We'll be selling a small number of servings of our chocolate fudge and burnt, butter caramel sauces to take home as well!
