Autumnal Ice Cream

Cinnamon and Sea Salt Caramel have returned. Warm up with our Cinnamon Ice Cream made with Cinnamon from Red Ape; it’s non-GMO, organic, and 5% of the profits go towards helping orangutans. The Cinnamon is packed by Pearl Buck Center, an organization that provides work for those with developmental disabilities. Our Sea Salt Caramel Ice Cream is made with deep, amber Caramel and local Cape May Sea Salt. It pairs ever so nicely with our Chocolate, Peanut Butter, or Pumpkin!

Caramel Apple Pie Milkshake (now as vegan too!)

Try our Caramel Apple Pie Shake: Vanilla Bean Ice Cream and house-made hot Caramel Sauce, blended with our house-made Apple Pie! Gooey caramel, warm pie, and cool ice cream is a dessert not to be trifled with. Or order a slice a-la-mode, the Jerks suggest the Cinnamon Ice Cream.

Great Pumpkin Sundae

The wait is over, The Great Pumpkin Sundae has returned! Pumpkin Ice Cream made with local real Squash, smothered in house-made Caramel, sprinkled with Salted Pecans, dusted with Malt Powder, and topped with fresh Whipped Cream! Also offered as Vegan, when made without the malt powder.

House-Made Hot Fudge and Brownies

The Guittard Family has valued excellence in chocolate making since 1868. We are now using 63% Guittard Chocolate in our house-made Hot Fudge and our Brownies. We think it has vastly improved their flavor and depth.

Death & Chocolate

We resurrected the Victorian Funeral Biscuit. Biscuits embossed with Latin epitaphs, hearts, skulls, or crosses, were given out to mourners. At times they were left on the chest of the deceased during the wake, or wrapped in paper with a poem, and given out as favors. Our morbid tokens are house-made Dark Chocolate Skulls emblazoned with “ÆTERNE”, cast in locally hand-sculpted moulds, and wrapped in authentic funerary poetry.

Agua de Nicaragua Drinking Chocolate

Organic Nicaraguan Cocoa is house-roasted and refined with Cinnamon and Coconut Milk, then whipped into a luxurious hot libation. Our version is a take on the traditional Nicaraguan beverage Pinolillo.

Pumpkin Incredi-bells

Our Incredi-bell is a Bean-to-Bar Chocolate Liberty Bell filled with house-made Marshmallows that you can melt into your own drinking chocolate. This month we’ve stuffed them with Pumpkin Marshmallows. Just add hot milk or water and watch as these pearls of pumpkin perfection are cast adrift in mouthwatering Chocolate!
