Nappanee Indiana
I know, most wonderful towns
have all of those. But Nappanee has something that truly is exceptional in the
most superlative sense.
Nappanee has Rocket Science Ice Cream.
Owned for a couple of years by Steven and
Rochelle Slabaugh, Rocket Science Ice Cream is given full-time attention by
this married couple. I asked Rochelle if she was having fun and she replied
“I’m having a lot of fun!” And it looks like it!
After you make your choice of
flavor the mixing begins. You get to watch as directly before your eyes a milky
liquid substance turns into ice cream by application of liquid nitrogen as a
freezing agent. Their business card promotes this ice cream as “fresh nitrogen
blasted ice cream while you watch”.
You’ll experience a sense of
anticipation as you watch your customized flavor being created.
And it tastes great too!
I had chocolate. It sticks
together pretty well. It does not easily “peel away” as does store bought ice
cream. Thick on the spoon and smooth on your tongue I say.
My wife, Sherry, and I often
enjoy this ice cream.
It’s worth a visit to
Nappanee. And tell them Mike sent!
