Peace. We are all immigrants. 50% of profits go to support refugee aid services (50% of profits from this pint go to support organizations providing vital aid to refugees). Our date and walnut ice cream was inspired by the middle-eastern treat- Ma'amoul, a shortbread pastry filled with dates and nuts. Ma’ amoul is enjoyed by Syrian communities of all faiths on celebratory holidays: Muslims on Eid al-Fitr and Eid al-Adha, Christians on Easter and Jewish communities on Rosh Hashanah and Hanukkah. We were not only inspired by the wonderful taste of Ma'amoul to create our new flavor but also moved by the great American tradition of embracing flavors from another land and bringing them into our own kitchens. We believe food shared across a table has the power to break down cultural barriers and remind us that in spite of our outward differences, more unites us than separates us. Since 2011 over 400,000 lives have been lost in Syria and over 12 million people have been displaced from their homes. Children have experienced unimaginable violence and have suffered from the horrors of war and hate. The families of these children seeking refuge on our shores are no different from those who over the last 250 years have come before them - risking life itself for freedom, safety and the opportunity for a better future. We hope you enjoy this flavor and find a commonality with the Syrian refugees who are seeking a brighter future for their children. www.adirondackcreamery.com.
