A month or so ago, Sweetery NYC (formerly Street Sweets) begun carrying ice cream sandwiches. This ice cream sandwich expert saw the flavor combinations and knew that the sandwiches were coming from Melt Bakery. If any of you stopped by the Hester Street Fair last summer, you might have stopped by their booth. And even though the weather hasn’t fully turned to wonderful out, it’s always the time for ice cream. Even if that ice cream comes completely frozen and will set you back a pretty penny.

Remember back in January when Street Sweets announced they’d be changing their name? Well, the day has finally arrived. A winner has been chosen, and the Street Sweets Truck will officially be known known from this day forward as… (drumroll please)… Sweetery NYC. Despite being forced to change their name by a similarly named bakery, they assured us that there would be no change whatsoever to their business and they are committed to “more interesting corporate events and give aways, changing & expanding the offerings that appear [on] our menu, and ultimately expanding our business to include other outlets to distribute our products.” Exciting! They have also changed their Twitter account to @sweeterynyc (although if you were following @streetsweets you don’t have to do anything… you’re still following their account.)
