A popular bread brand and a Brooklyn-based ice cream shop are coming together to celebrate National Ice Cream Sandwich Day the best way they know how: with free ice cream sandwiches.
On Aug. 2, St. Pierre Bakery is teaming up with OddFellows Ice Cream Co. to offer complimentary ice cream sandwiches at select locations.
The ice cream sandwich is a time-honored treat that dates back to the late 1800s-early 1900s, starting as ice cream pressed between pieces of paper, selling for just a penny. The popular dessert has evolved over time into the classic dessert we all know and love, with tons of variations on the original taste and design spanning the globe over the years.
Each ice cream sandwich will be made with St Pierre Bakery’s brioche waffles and filled with OddFellows’ small-batch ice cream. Participating locations include:
- OddFellows Dumbo, 47 Water St.
-
Oddfellows Domino Park (Williamsburg), 40 River St.
-
Oddfellows Brooklyn Bridge Park, 334 Furman St, Pier 5
Free ice cream sandwiches will be available to the first 50 customers at each store. The Dumbo and Domino Park locations are open from 12 to 10 p.m., while the Brooklyn Bridge Park location is open from 11 a.m. to 10 p.m.
