Browndog Creamery is launching a collaboration with Better Made Snack Foods to introduce three unique ice cream flavors that celebrate local nostalgia. Starting on Thursday, June 26, the new flavors will feature combinations of beloved snack foods and will be available in pints for $9 as well as in scoop form at Browndog locations in Northville and Lansing.
The newly developed flavors include “Snack Attack,” a peanut butter ice cream mixed with chocolate-covered pretzels; “Detroit Mix,” which combines cheddar cheese popcorn ice cream with salted caramel; and “Motown Chip,” a malted vanilla ice cream with chocolate-covered potato chips and caramel ribbons.
This collaboration is set to kick off through launch events at both Browndog locations from 4 p.m. to 7 p.m. on June 26, where customers will have the opportunity to sample the new flavors and receive take-home merchandise. The shops involved include Browndog Creamery’s original location at 120 East Main St., Northville and a scoop-only venue at 325 Riverfront Dr., Lansing. Additionally, customers can order the new flavors online for shipping, providing flexibility for those unable to attend the launch.
Founded in 2015 by Paul Gabriel and Brian Scherle, Browndog Creamery has grown significantly since its inception as a micro-creamery. It now boasts three locations, including a restaurant and parlor. This new collaboration with Better Made Snack Foods and the recent expansion of its partnership with Faygo, including a new Faygo Root Beer Float ice cream flavor, underline the brand’s dedication to enhancing local and nostalgic elements in its offerings.
The timing of the launch aligns with the anticipated summer heat wave, making it an ideal moment for ice cream enthusiasts to explore these new, nostalgic flavors. Paul Gabriel, co-founder of Browndog Creamery, has indicated that this collaboration exemplifies “Detroit in a scoop,” underscoring the efforts of local businesses to weave community identity into their products.
The collaboration not only aims to entice ice cream lovers but also acts as an homage to Detroit’s cherished snack favorites, merging the worlds of frozen treats and beloved local snacks. The flavors are designed to resonate with longtime residents and newcomers alike, further establishing Browndog Creamery as a staple in the local food scene.
