This is a big summer for ice cream news, especially in our neck of the woods.
Melt Ice Creams opened its pop-up shop inside Urban Acres this past weekend. The shop is open 11 a.m.-9 p.m. Friday-Sunday through Oct. 31.
Kari Crowe started the craft ice cream shop 14 months ago in Fort Worth.
Flavors available include a classic Madagascar vanilla bean, one with Dude Sweet Chocolate, vanilla with nectarine jam and a vegan option made with coconut milk.
Melt is the second craft ice cream place to open in Oak Cliff this summer. Carnival Barker’s opened at Jefferson Tower in June.
That’s good news, especially considering the summer’s ice-cream tragedies: Blue Bell is off the market, and La Original Michoacana is moving to Arlington.
