Celebrate Halloween at Salt & Straw Ice Cream

Tuesday, October 31, 2023 from 11 AM to 11 PM
Salt & Straw
N/A

Salt & Straw ice cream will be offering a free scoop for kids under age 16 who come to any of the shops dressed in costume on Halloween, October 31.

Salt & Straw is also celebrating with its Scoops and Skulls Series, which is inspired by founders’ Kim and Tyler Malek’s grandmother’s annual Halloween parties, where she completely transformed her basement into a haunted house for all kids in the neighborhood to enjoy. The five unique flavors serve as a perfect way to satisfy your sweet tooth, incorporating housemade candies, pumpkin, and even real bugs from Don Bugito.

Flavors include:

  • The Great Candycopia Housemade candy—inspired by Kit Kats, Reeses, Snickers, and Heath bars—folded into salted butterscotch ice cream. 
  • Jack o’ Lantern Pumpkin Bread — Pumpkin-spiced ice cream with sweet pieces of freshly-baked pumpkin bread, swaths of whipped cream cheese frosting and pinches of warming spices.
  • Don Bugito's Creepy Crawly Critters — Matcha ice cream with toffee-brittle mealworms and crunchy chocolate crickets (yes, real bugs!) from Don Bugito, a company on a mission to change how the world sees (and eats) insects.
  • Chocolate Champurrado with Sesame Toffee — Spiced champurrado (a masa-thickened drinking cacao) ice cream honoring the Day of the Dead with sweetly skull-popping chunks of palanqueta, a traditional Mexican-style sesame toffee, made in collaboration with food writer Paola Briseño-González to evoke the experience of dipping sesame-laden pan de muerto in warm champurrado
  • Blackberry & Masa Tamale Sherbet (v) — A monster vegan mashup in tribute to Michoacán's tamal from the Purépecha region: half masa coconut cream sherbet, half juicy marionberry sherbet, made in collaboration with Paola Briseño-González.
