For National Ice Cream Month in July, Marble Slab Creamery is introducing a new Charcoal Mocha flavor for a limited time that can be enjoyed in a Moondust Majestic Shake or a Black Hole Waffle Cone. True to its name, the intriguing new flavor combines chocolate mocha with activated charcoal for a unique combination that the brand promises will "make for stellar selfies."
While the Moondust Majestic Shake is served in a jar with vanilla frosting and cookie crumbles, whipped topping, cookie pieces, marshmallows and cotton candy, the Black Hole Waffle Cone offers a pared-pack way to enjoy the limited-edition Charcoal Mocha ice cream.
With the 50th anniversary of the moon landing rapidly approaching, a range of brands are diving deep into outer space-themed products and campaigns.
