Have you heard the Treats Truck featured in radio ads for Visa? Well now they have video versions online. I felt a little dirty watching a stupid ad for a credit card company, but it was worth it to see little Kim loading giant bags of supplies onto a dolly. She’s a one [...]

Ask and ye shall receive!!! Miss Softee (who we profiled on Tuesday, from the Queen Frostine crew) has teamed up with the Treats Truck to create an ice cream sandwich! A squirt of soft serve, sandwiched between two (delicious) Treats Truck chocolate chip cookies. Amazing… don’t let the weather discourage you from this one. I [...]

Saw this message on twitter from Miss Softee to the Treats Truck yesterday and it gave me a great idea! Two chocolate chip cookies from the treats truck, plus a squirt of soft serve from Miss Softee’s ice cream truck would make quite the awesome ice cream sandwich- don’t you think?

Kim just started serving apricot bars (on the right) which are made with matzoh meal, and plans on having macaroons and other assorted [...]

Hey! I know those two girls…
Vendr TV launched yesterday, a new website and video podcast that goes inside the world of street vendors. They plan on covering street food from all over the world… but naturally are beginning in New York City. For their first video, they spent the day in Midtown with Kim and [...]

What would we do without the precious Blondie and Brownie, who today have unearthed the cutesy side of Midtown Lunch’ing that few of us would dare trek into. I suppose I could see myself buying some of these Treats Truck valentine’s day cookies for my wife, but eating at McDonald’s for a Hello Kitty Watch? I [...]

Two chocolate chip cookies with nuts from the Treats Truck lying face down on 47th Street & 6th Ave. How do I know they were from the Treats Truck? Because I’m the one who dropped them… urgh, it’s so sad. Lesson: Don’t carry a paper bag with cookies in a gloved hand on a super [...]
