Throughout October, Salt & Straw invites ice cream lovers to sample and savor its series of Halloween ice cream flavors with popular seasonal ingredients, pints studded with homemade candies, edible critters and varieties that have returned to the Monthly Menu Series after several years away.
This Halloween ice cream collection offers something for everyone, including a colorful, vegan-friendly coconut blackberry sherbet with masa curd pudding and cornbread crumble.
The 2024 Halloween Series by Salt & Straw revives Essence of Ghost, a flavor last served in 2018. Touted as a "haunting combination of scotch-infused sherbet and dark chocolate ice cream," this returning flavor plays with smoky-sweet notes and offers a sensory adventure via ice cream.
