A Special Request: Service to Pope Francis

The Berley Brothers were honored to donate ice cream for Pope Francis’ dinner at St. Charles Seminary.  In 1940 St. Charles Seminary commissioned Eppelsheimer of NY, to make relief moulds of the seminary for the Archdiocese Jubilee.  The Berley Brothers used this mould, one of only twelve made representing each of Jesus’ apostles, to cast twelve ice cream bars; six molded in Vanilla, and six in Carmelo de Plátano.
