Kern's Kitchen: Reimagining National Ice Cream Day with Kern’s Derby-Pie


National Ice Cream Day is just around the corner, and we at Kern's Kitchen are excited to celebrate with you! While classic ice cream flavors are undeniably delicious, we believe there’s something truly special about putting a unique twist on an old favorite. That's why we're sharing some mouthwatering ways to incorporate our beloved Kern’s Derby-Pie® into your National Ice Cream Day festivities.

Kern’s Derby-Pie®, a cherished Kentucky treat, boasts a rich history and an even richer flavor profile. With its perfect blend of chocolate, walnuts, and a touch of bourbon, it's a dessert that stands alone. But what happens when you combine this iconic pie with the creamy indulgence of ice cream? Pure magic, that’s what!

The Classic Derby-Pie® Milkshake

Let's start with a classic. Our Derby-Pie® Milkshake is a decadent dream come true. Imagine the creamy smoothness of vanilla ice cream blended with chunks of our signature Derby-Pie® and a splash of milk. It's a symphony of flavors and textures that will transport your taste buds to dessert heaven. To elevate this treat, top it off with a dollop of whipped cream and a generous sprinkle of chopped walnuts. It's the ultimate indulgence for any ice cream lover.

The Nutty Derby-Pie® Milkshake

If you're a fan of all things nutty, then our Nutty Derby-Pie® Milkshake is a must-try. This upgraded version replaces vanilla ice cream with rich and creamy butter pecan. The nutty undertones of the ice cream perfectly complement the walnuts in the Derby-Pie®, creating a harmonious flavor explosion. To add a touch of lightness, we recommend using almond milk. This milkshake is a nutty lover's paradise!

The Bourbon Derby-Pie® Milkshake (for ages 21+)

For those seeking a more sophisticated flavor experience, our Bourbon Derby-Pie® Milkshake is the perfect choice. Please note that this treat is intended for adults only. A splash of Kentucky bourbon adds a subtle smokiness to the milkshake, elevating the chocolate and walnut flavors of the Derby-Pie® to new heights. It's a truly unique and complex flavor profile that will satisfy the most discerning palate.

Derby-Pie® Sundae Spectacular

Don't have a blender? No worries! Our Derby-Pie® Sundae Spectacular is a delicious alternative that's just as satisfying. Start with a generous scoop of your favorite ice cream. Then, crumble a slice of Derby-Pie® on top and drizzle with rich chocolate syrup. Finish it off with a dollop of whipped cream, a maraschino cherry, and a sprinkle of chopped nuts. It's a classic sundae experience with a Derby-Pie® twist that's sure to impress.

No matter which Derby-Pie® ice cream creation you choose, you're in for a treat. This National Ice Cream Day, we encourage you to get creative and experiment with different flavors and toppings. Whether you're hosting a backyard barbecue or simply indulging in a personal treat, Derby-Pie® is the perfect way to elevate your ice cream game.
