by 0 comments

Chinese New Year, also called the Lunar New Year, is a time to enjoy culinary traditions with friends and family. Many symbolic foods are served to bring luck, wealth and a long life. Tangerines and oranges, for example, are displayed and eaten because the Chinese words for “gold” and “orange” sound alike, while the word for “tangerine” sounds like “luck.” When possible, the leaves are left intact because they symbolize longevity.

We found a decades-old traditional recipe that accomplishes exactly that. Our ice cream is made locally in San Leandro using milk sourced from California farms. It is available by the quart at Mollie Stone’s, along with ice cream cakes that are perfect for any occasion, or “just because.”
