July 12, 2019

Founder and Flavor Creator Lisa Herlinger to host free, informal summer tastings with new seasonal flavors and toppings and National Ice Cream Sandwich Day celebration (Aug. 2)

PORTLAND, Ore. – July 12, 2019 – Ruby Jewel Ice Cream is ready to turn their new test kitchen space into an interactive ice cream hub with drop-in tastings throughout the summer. Customers can meet Founder and Flavor Creator Lisa Herlinger as she handcrafts small batch flavors, mixes new toppings and celebrates the company’s popular ice cream sandwich.

“I love having my very own test kitchen at our new NW 23rd Avenue location, called Lisa’s Kitchen, where I can interact with customers, experiment with new flavor combinations and offer tastings to the community,” said Herlinger. Customers can pull up a stool to the test kitchen “island” to view the ice-cream-making process up close and sample a taste of Herlinger’s latest creation.

Pre-packaged ice cream sandwiches are available “to go” in a freezer by the front door in popular flavor combinations, including Oatmeal Chocolate Chip Cookie and Butterscotch Ice Cream, Double Chocolate Cookie and Peanut Butter Ice Cream, Brown Sugar Cookie and Oregon Strawberry Ice Cream, Chocolate Cookie and Salted Caramel Ice Cream, Lemon Cookie and Honey Lavender Ice Cream, and Dark Chocolate Cookie with Fresh Mint Ice Cream.
