FATBOY® Drops Three New Frozen Ice Cream Treats

May 9, 2026 By Dayton937

FatBoy®, America’s #1 Ice Cream Sandwich, is serving up three all-new treats made with 100 percent real ice cream ahead of summer and once fans get their sticky fingers on these crave worthy flavors – self-control will be officially out the window. The latest lineup reimagines nostalgic dessert favorites with rich layers and satisfying textures, delivering a playful twist that was worth waiting for, including:

S’mores Ice Cream Sandwich Pop (4-Pack) – Marshmallow-flavored ice cream sandwich dipped in a chocolatey coating and rolled in graham cracker crumbles, bringing all the nostalgic, campfire-inspired flavor consumers love into a perfectly indulgent pop. No fire needed!
Waffle Cone Ice Cream Sandwich Pop (4-Pack) – Vanilla ice cream sandwich with a rich caramel swirl, dipped in chocolatey coating and rolled in crunchy waffle cone pieces, bringing the classic scoop shop experience into a sweet-meets-crunch, texture-packed treat.
Chocolate Ice Cream Sandwich (6-Pack) – Rich chocolate ice cream sandwiched between two classic chocolate wafers, spotlighting a flavor that (despite its popularity) has rarely taken center stage in the ice cream sandwich aisle.

“These new flavors reflect how we’re continuing to evolve the frozen novelty category,” said Russell Stokes, CEO of Casper’s Ice Cream, the brand behind FatBoy. “We saw an opportunity to take flavors we know people can’t live without and reimagine them in new, exciting ways – bringing together nostalgic favorites, fresh formats and the texture-rich indulgence consumers are craving.”

The new flavors are available now at major retailers nationwide. The FatBoy Ice Cream Sandwiches (6-packs) and Sandwich Pops (4-packs) are expected to retail for an average of $5.99 per package; however, pricing is at the sole discretion of individual retailers.

Chuckee’s Ice Cream – Not Your Usual Flavors!

October 1, 2023 By Lisa Grigsby

So I discovered a new spot for ice cream a couple months ago in the Drug Mart Plaza on Lyons Road. I’ve now tried enough flavors that I can report back that I’ve found some great flavors I never new existed. Located inside the Shree-G Grocers , Chukee’s Ice Cream serves up ice cream in an authentic India style. That means the ice cream is eggless and made with local cream and without artificial coloring or flavoring. Many of their flavors are also gluten free. You can get your ice cream in a regular cone, waffle cone, cup or even a sundae. You can also get milkshakes at Chukee’s and make them even more indulgent with their huge variety of mithai. Mithai is often made with jaggery (unrefined sugar), mawa (milk solids), besan flour (gram or chickpea flour), and ghee (clarified butter).

For example here’s the KESAR PISTA
A premium must have Indian flavor! It’s packed with crunchy pistachios in a smooth saffron ice cream, with a touch of cardamom.

GULAB JAMUN
A sweet flavor well loved in the Indian community ….now as an ice cream! fresh gulab jamun pieces swirled into a velvety soft ice cream.

KADAK CHAI
A creamy masala chai ice cream loaded with the classic Parle G cookie

NUTTY MADRAS FILTER COFFEE

A rich coffee ice cream mixed with walnuts for the perfect crunch

KADAK CHAI
A creamy masala chai ice cream loaded with the classic Parle G cookie we all love! An afternoon treat that’s sure to be the pick me up you need

ROSE PISTA FALOODA – A fragrant rose ice cream swirled with pistachios, basil seeds, vermicelli noodles, and cardamom.

GREEN CHILI – A flavor with a kick!! Our green chili ice cream is the perfect swirl of spicy & sweet.

BANGELORE’S BUTTERSCOTCH – A chunks of cashew praline folded into a silky smooth butterscotch ice cream.

TUTTI FRUTTI a refreshing blend of sweet orange ice cream and candied papaya for a tropical burst of flavor

KRUNCHY KAJU ANJEER – toasted cashews swirled into a fig infused ice cream, making for the perfect bite.

RAJBHOG- A lush saffron ice cream packed with pistachios, cashews and almonds.

MAGIC MANGO – A mango lovers dream! Juicy mangos transformed into a lush ice cream swirled with mango tidbits.

While they have have unique flavors, they also have classics like CHOCO DREAM – a lush and creamy chocolate ice cream packed with a rich Cadbury cocoa and COORGI VANILLA- made with the best vanillas and is a perfect base for milkshakes & sundaes!!

They are happy to let you taste some flavors before you choose which ice cream to purchase. Single dips are $3.99, double dips are $5.99 and triple dips run $7.99. Tell them DaytonDining sent you!

A New East Side Eatery!

July 11, 2023 By Lisa Grigsby

There’s a new joint in town for taco’s and ice cream. Husain and wife Angelica opened La Monarca Tacos and Ice Cream on Linden Ave, just south of 5th Street about six weeks ago. Angelica, who is originally from Mexico handles the cooking, while Husain runs the front of the house.

Husain said they opened the eatery there on the East side because there were very few places in the neighborhood and he wanted a place kids go go and get a treat.

For a little shop, they have an extensive menu which includes quesadilla’s, nachos, tacos, tortas, burritos, a burger, chicken tenders, and wings. On the weekends they offer Menudo, a traditional Mexican soup, made with cow’s stomach. They even have a Birria Pizza.

On the sweets side they offer 24 flavors of ice cream in cones and cups, even a churos split!

They also make shakes, chocolate covered banana’s, agua fresca, crepes and more!

Most of their business is take out, though they do have 3 small tables if you’d like to dine in. Go visit them and tell them DaytonDining sent you!

Top 33 Dayton Treats to Beat the Heat

July 2, 2019 By Dayton937 Leave a Comment

Jet Freeze’s Peanut Butter Sundae

The sweltering days, the sun beating down on the Miami Valley. When you can’t plunge into a swimming pool, don’t worry. Relief is a taste away. Whether a mom and pop locally owned store, or a national chain, Daytonians have some delicious options to “beat the heat.”

The Food Adventures Crew breaks it all down for you right here:

The Top 20 Dayton Treats to Beat the Heat:

1) PEANUT BUTTER SUNDAE at JET FREEZE:

Homemade peanut butter sauce, and incredible prices make this choice #1. They also have fantastic soft serve ice cream, unlike another place. For example, also try the Kings Island inspired Smurf Blueberry Blue Ice cream. Located in Beavercreek near the Grange Hall and Patterson intersection.

2) RITTER’S PEANUT BUTTER MOUNTAIN:

The Peanut Butter Mountain from Ritters

Whether the Kettering location or Beavercreek location, the toppings are generous for these sundaes. Get one of the richest, most sinful things you have eaten all for around 5 bucks.

3) ICE CREAM PINTS at YOUNG’S DAIRY:

Great flavors like Sea Salty Caramel Crunch, Cookie Dough, Cow Patty and Tiramisu Gelato are our favorite flavors by far. Hell, at this place even the butter pecan and chocolate ice cream is to die for. Pack up the car and head to Yellow Springs today !

4) CHOCOLATE SHAKE at “K &W DRIVE-IN” in Springboro:

Shake it at K & W. Nothing is as good as a shake or malt from here in the summer. Make sure you try the burgers and footlong hot dogs too ! Located on 741 in Downtown Springboro, this place is a longtime favorite.

5) STRAWBERRY SHORTCAKE SUNDAE from FREDDYS FROZEN CUSTARD:

Full blown strawberry heaven here. Located on Wilmington Pike, they also serve other terrific sundaes. Seriously one of the most delicious sundaes we have tried.

6) BAD JUANS at ELSA’S:

K & W Drive in in Springboro

Our only alcoholic item in the bunch, but it has to be on here. How many drunk Bad Juan experiences have started with that first refreshing sip !

7) ROOT BEER FLOATS at the ROOT BEER STANDE:

A Dayton classic. No better place to people watch and car watch than Woodman Dr. at The Root Beer Stande. It’s like a special portal in the universe. Order a footlong hot dog and deep fried mushrooms too !

Strawberry Shortcake from Freddys Custard

8) CONE WITH SPRINKLES at the DAIRY SHED in BELLBROOK:

People come from all around like a beacon of hope to this place called the Dairy Shed. The best sprinkle cones around, they really give it a dip and a whirl. Sometimes it is like, “would you like some ice cream with your sprinkles?”

9) EXTRA LARGE CHOCOLATE MALT with PEANUT BUTTER ICE CREAM and a BANANA at UDF:

Here is a “fat kid trick.” We ask for the biggest shake at United Dairy Farmers and make it a malt. Use Peanut butter ice cream, and ask them to add chocolate sauce and a banana. Get some sunglasses, sit in the shade and go to a world of your own happiness. UDF’s can be found in Kettering, Springboro and near University of Dayton.

The Bad Juan – Frozen

10) FRISCH’S HOT FUDGE CAKE:

Oh boy, the classic. The perfect balance of fudge, cake and ice cream. And who could forget the whipped cream? Order one and you will find yourself making the “mmmm” good noises you see on commercials. Lots of locations in town to order this one.

11) A WAFFLE CONE OF COOKIE DOUGH CHOCOLATE CHIP ICE CREAM at GRAETER’S ICE CREAM:

Get in line and get yourself a waffle cone of cookie dough. Their butter pecan here is sinful too. Also we recommend the Buckeye Blitz Ice Cream. The Centerville location on 48 and 725 is a perfect spot to try the flavors.

Root Beer Float from the Root Beer Stande

12) MOOSE TRACKS ICE CREAM at VILLAGE ICE CREAM PARLOR in LEBANON:

This ice cream has the perfect array of chocolate, fudge, nuts and caramel to make anyone happy. This is a fantastic ice cream, and those who love “Rocky Road” will love this too ! Get to Lebanon soon!

13) PUMPKIN ROLL TOPPED WITH VANILLA ICE CREAM at THE DIXIE DAIRY DREEM:

A special homemade treat that is available more in the fall. In the meantime , just get the vanilla ice cream soft serve and the mini Dreem Burgers and you summer is complete.

Dairy Shed in Bellbrook

14) THE DREAMSICLE PIE from BUCKIN DONKEY:

An orange flavored pie that tastes like a push up pop. Only At the Buckin Donkey would they dream this up. Try the blackberry pie and peanut butter pie too. All amazing in their own right.

Frischs Hot Fudge Cake

15) THE PEANUT BUSTER PARFAIT from DAIRY QUEEN:

The old classic with Spanish peanuts, hot fudge and vanilla soft serve ice cream. Yeah, yeah we know it is a chain … Moraine, Miamisburg, and Centerville are a few of the locations.

16) A COLD GLASS of APPLE CIDER from HIDDEN VALLEY ORCHARDS:

Nothing says AHHHH like a cold glass of cider in the summer. Sip it outdoors and swirl it in your mouth. Your tastebuds are now alive, and you are refreshed. Just head south of Centerville on 48, and it is before you reach Lebanon on the left hand side.

Graeters !

17) PEANUT BUTTER BANANA SHAKES at STEAK N SHAKE:

This national chain makes some killer hand dipped shakes. We have found one of the most delicious is the peanut butter and banana shake. Refreshing as you can get, yet creamy and smooth as well. Wilmington Pike in Kettering and in Miamisburg near Lyons and 741 are just two locations.

“Moose Tracks” at Village Ice Cream

18) PEANUT BUTTER n CHOCOLATE WAFFLE CONE at BASKIN ROBBINS on 741 near the Dayton Mall:

On 741 by the Dayton mall, this place has thrived since the 1970’s. Why? One reason is the Peanut Butter n chocolate ice cream. It is an amazing ice cream and butter pecan is a close second. Get a Waffle cone today !

19) FRIED ICE CREAM AT EL TORO:

At the end of a spicy meal, lighten up with some fried ice cream. Not as good as the stuff that Chi chi’s served, but this version is pretty good. We love it at many locations in the Dayton area from Beavercreek, to Miamisburg and Centerville.

20) $1 VANILLA CONE FROM MCDONALDS:

Pumpkin Roll A La Mode at the Dixie Dairy Dreem

We had to include this monster on the list. The best refreshment bang for your buck in the food industry. One dolla and the vanilla makes you holla.

21) COOKIE BATTER ICE CREAM at COLD STONE CREAMERY:

Incredible flavor, and a unique one too. Like licking the batter spoon? You will love this stuff. Again, a chain, but undeniable in goodness.

Buckin Donkeys Dreamsicle Pie

22) BANANA MILK SHAKE from SONIC:

This chain makes a refreshing banana shake. It tastes like fresh banana and circus peanuts. A nic sip on a summers ever while cruising in the car. Sonic on Wilmington Pike is waiting for you to place your order !

23) CHUNKY MONKEY ICE CREAM from BEN AND JERRYS:

Whether you are at the actual store on Brown Street near University of Dayton’s campus, or in a local grocery, get some chunky monkey ice cream and cool off.

30) THE BLACKBERRY COBBLER A LA MODE at THE MONTGOMERY COUNTY FAIR:

Celebrate National Ice Cream Day with These Freebies

July 12, 2017 By Lisa Grigsby

Thousands of years ago, people in the Persian Empire would put snow in a bowl, pour grape-juice concentrate over it and eat it as a treat. They did this when the weather was hot and used the snow saved in the cool-keeping underground chambers known as “yakhchal”, or taken from the snowfall that remained at the stop of mountains by the summer capital.

Luckily today, there are many more flavors and it’s a little easier to get ice cream year round. In 1984, President Ronald Reagan proclaimed July as National Ice Cream Month and established National Ice Cream Day as the third Sunday in the month of July.

Here’s a roundup of places you can get free ice cream to celebrate National Ice Cream Day, today July 16th:
