Campfire Conversation:

Eric, Ana, and Logan discuss “must try” ice cream shops to help kick off June Dairy Month across Wisconsin. It begins with a discussion of what ice cream and how it’s made, as well as how it differentiates from some other frozen treats. From Sweeden Sweets in Superior to Scoop’s Ice Cream & Candy in Kenosha, we cover the entire state. Others noted include The Pearl in La Crosse; Mullen’s Dairy Bar with locations in Watertown & Oconomowoc; the classic Wilson’s in Ephraim. open since 1906; Scoop de Ville in Hartford, Olson’s in Chippewa Falls, Purple Door in Milwaukee; the Hawkeye Dairy Store in Abbotsford; the Historic Washington House in Two Rivers, home to where the ice cream sundae was invented; South Pier Parlor in Sheboygan; King Cone in Plover; Amy’s Candy Kitchen in Cedarburg; Lily's Ice Cream Parlor in McFarland; Frostie Freeze in Fort Atkinson; Pirate's Hideaway in Eagle River; Cathy's Ice Cream stand in St. Germain; Sassy Cow Creamery in Columbus; Atwood Scoop and the Chocolate Shoppe in Madison; plus chains like Kilwin's and The Chocolate Factory. A few custard stands get mentioned too, since we got in the mood. And of course, there's Babcock Dairy Hall on the UW-Madison campus, where a proper measurement of butterfat content in ice cream was created and the ice cream is spectacular.
