Marco Sweets & Spices launches with five globally-inspired flavors
Produced in Boonville, NY, each variety of Marco ice cream includes spices from Brooklyn Spice Company, based in Greenpoint, Brooklyn.
The five varieties are: Ginger Dreamsicle - orange and sweet cream with ginger and cardamom; Vanilla Chai - traditional vanilla enhanced with chai, including cinnamon, ginger, fennel, cardamom, cloves, black pepper and Madagascar vanilla; Spicy PB Caramel – a peanut butter base accented with ribbons of salted caramel with chile de arbol and Aleppo pepper; Thai Coco-Lime - coconut and lime, with gochugaru chili powder; and Aztec Chocolate - chocolate with cinnamon, ancho chile and chile de arbol.
Marco pints are available in sets of four ($50; choice of any four flavors) or five ($55; choice of any five flavors) and ship directly to consumers in 35 states.
One per cent of sales is donated to One Acre Fund, a Kenya-based non-profit organization that provides smallholder farmers with asset-based financing and agriculture training services to reduce hunger and poverty.
