14. Halloween Memories
Description: Dark Chocolate Ice Cream with pumpkin and fudge.. Marshmallows and cookie dough and gummy worms to top. Orange, black and white sprinkles.
Why they think it should win: This flavor is called “Halloween Memories” It should be picked because it represents the essence of Halloween. The dark chocolate ice cream is for the darker aspects of Halloween, like curling up on the couch to watch a horror movie. Pumpkin represents the warmer aspects, like the fall season and frolicking in the leaves. The cookies represent warm memories with people you love. Halloween is All Hallow’s Eve, after all. The marshmallows and gummy worms bring us a taste of the childhood joy of trick-or-treating. The sprinkles are there to remind us that above all, Halloween is a night of fright, and of fun, of going out, and of relaxing inside. Of spending time with people you love, and of celebrating nature.

Why they think it should win: This flavor brings together a classic ice cream favorite (cookies and cream) and the pumpkin pandemonium that grips us every fall. It is the perfect combination as we move out of the hot summer typical ice cream months and into a time when people are looking for warm comforting fall inspired flavors in their life. We have lots of pictures of our students (5 with a variety of special needs) actually making this flavor in class and testing out different combinations of the ingredients to fine tune our flavor. We even made our own ice cream in a bag first for a science lesson! Our flavor inspiration was "Every Pumpkin Has a Place", a belief that everyone belongs. Just like every pumpkin has a place in the patch, every student has a place in our classroom. The flavor highlights pumpkins, which come in all sizes, shapes, colors just like our students. Just like pumpkins we all grow and change at different paces developing unique and special features. Each student brings their own unique strengths, talents and personality and its the combination of them all that makes our classroom community special.
