It seems Loblolly Creamery keeps popping up on our radar more and more these days, and we definitely don’t hate it. The latest news from the ice cream mecca of Little Rock is that they’re beginning a limited edition series based on collaborations with Arkansas chefs.
That’s right; your favorite treats from your favorite local hot spots will soon take ice cream form. Not just any ice cream, mind you. We’re talking about the frosty bowl of daydreams that Loblolly is known for.
First up in the series is South on Main’s Matthew Lowman with the flavor Turtle Love. It’s no secret that Lowman has a propensity for recreating desserts from his childhood. Now he’s funneled that gift into a gift for the masses. Turtle Love is a sea salt chocolate ice cream packed with dark chocolate flecks, caramel nougat and roasted Arkansas pecans.
We’re dying to find out who else will make chef collaboration list, but for now, we’re going all googly-eyed over Turtle Love. You can find it with the rest of the Loblolly flavors at the Green Corner Store and Soda Fountain, as well as at South on Main.
