Honeycomb, or 'Hokey Pokey' as it's known in New Zealand and Australia (where Van Leeuwen co-founder Laura O'Neill is from) is a sweet cream ice cream with pieces of honeycomb candy throughout. Van Leeuwen coats half of their honeycomb in a little coconut oil and leaves the other half uncoated, which results in crunchy pieces and gooey ribbons of caramel throughout. About Van Leeuwen Ice CreamVan Leeuwen began as a yellow scoop truck on the streets of NYC in 2008 by Ben Van Leeuwen, Pete Van Leeuwen and Laura O'Neill, who were on a mission to make good ice cream from good ingredients that makes you feel good. Their French-style ice cream (made with more than double the amount of egg yolks as standard ice cream) quickly gained a loyal following. Van Leeuwen has since expanded and has scoop shops in New York, California, New Jersey, Pennsylvania, DC, Colorado, Connecticut, Massachusetts, Texas, Tennessee and Florida. Pints, ice cream bars and ice cream sandwiches are available in grocery stores across the country and to order for nationwide shipping from their website.

You can now get Shake Shack burgers on Delta flights out of Miami
Listen, we love a Biscoff cookie as much as the next traveler, but if we had to choose a mid-flight snack, we're definitely choosing Shack— Shake Shack, that is. As part of a wider expansion of the partnership between Delta Airlines and the beloved NYC-born patty purveyor—which first kicked off with flights out of Boston last December—Delta passengers can order Shake Shack Cheeseburgers flying out of Miami International Airport as of Tuesday, June 3. The mouthwatering burgers are made with a 100-percent Angus beef patty and melted American cheese sandwiched in a toasted, squishy potato bun; diners can customize their order with fresh tomatoes, lettuce and the chain's signature ShackSauce. The beefy offering is available to customers seated in first class on eligible flights of over 900 miles—they are able to pre-order a cheeseburger as their meal option using the Fly Delta app or the link in their email, between 24 hours and seven days of departure. The cheeseburger is served alongside a Caesar salad, potato chips and a dark chocolate brownie. Miami is one of seven new Delta routes that have added Shake Shack to select flights, joining John F. Kennedy International Airport in New York City, Harry Reid International Airport in Las Vegas, Orlando International Airport, Minneapolis–Saint Paul International Airport, San Francisco International Airport and Salt Lake City International Airport. Along with Boston, markets like Atlanta, Seattle, Los Angeles and LaGuardia Airport in NYC already offer the Shake Shack in-flight items. 'Customers are raving about the Shake Shack experience onboard our flights after serving more than 10,000 burgers out of Boston since launching in December,' Stephanie Laster, Managing Director of Onboard Service, said in March. 'This is part of our work to partner with brands our customers already know and love while continuing to raise the bar for the in-flight experience – whether that's making your favorite cheeseburger available at 35,000 feet, or ensuring you have a variety of fresh meals to choose from that fuel you on your adventure.'

Levain and Pretty Cool Ice Cream debut new Cookies à la Mode collab next week
This summer, Levain Bakery —the NYC-born chain famed for its massive, gooey cookies—is scooping up some seasonal fun with a new limited-time offering: "Levain à la Mode" will see the dessert purveyor partner with local ice cream shops across the country to serve premium scoops alongside its iconic six-ounce cookies.

California Avenue) and Lincoln Park (709 W. Belden Avenue) starting Friday, May 30. Chef Dana Cree, who created the flavor exclusively for Levain, states: 'I'm a long-time fan of Pam and Connie, the creators of Levain Bakery, and jumped at the chance to partner with them—especially to help celebrate their 30th anniversary. The vanilla in our scoop is toasted, which I think will pair perfectly with the richness of their cookies.' The Cookies à la Mode special will be available throughout the summer for $10.50, including one cookie and one scoop of ice cream. Along with Chicago, Levain's à la mode offering will pop up at other top-rate scoop shops around the country this summer, with each local partner bringing their own twist on classic vanilla.

'We're thrilled to partner with such incredible local ice cream makers to bring something extra special to our neighborhood bakeries this summer. Ice cream has long been one of the most requested treats from our customers. This collaboration is a fun, nostalgic way to surprise and delight them, while continuing to celebrate the community spirit and love of sweets that's defined Levain since 1995.'
