Fudgie & Cookie !

These two beloved creations have become synonymous with joy and deliciousness, embodying Carvel's tradition of quality since its founding in 1929 by Tom Carvel.

Starting with a humble ice cream truck in Hartsdale, New York, Tom Carvel's vision and dedication led to establishing fixed locations and introducing soft-serve desserts by 1934.

Carvel's marketing ingenuity, highlighted by Tom Carvel's distinctive voice and his heartfelt sign-off "Thank You," elevated Fudgie the Whale to fame in the 1970s, especially celebrated around Father's Day with the slogan "For a whale of a dad."

This chocolatey delight recently gained renewed attention after its appearance in Amazon's series "The Boys," where it became a memorable gift in the storyline, sparking curiosity and admiration among younger viewers and those unfamiliar with this Empire State bi-product.

Similarly, Cookie Puss, introduced in 1972 as a whimsical alien from "Planet Birthday," has captured hearts with its charming design featuring an ice cream cone nose and flying saucer eyes.

Its quirky personality and delicious flavor continue to make it a favorite among Carvel's lineup of handmade treats made from The Original Soft Serve.

Fudgie the Whale and Cookie Puss continue to be cherished across the country, bringing smiles to countless celebrations.

Eat Your Way Through The Hudson Valley With The Best Ice Cream

I have always enjoyed stopping by my favorite local ice cream shops and choosing a new flavor. Whether it's a hot fudge sundae, chocolate peanut butter ice cream in a cone, or an ice cream sandwich, count me in.

The Hudson Valley has strange ice cream flavors. From lemon poppyseed to thai iced tea and barn boots, there aren't any boring flavors in our area.

A 'Premiere' Hudson Valley treat shop was expanding their space during the winter months to prepare for a busy summer season.

Thankfully, we have a large selection of local ice cream shops to visit in the Hudson Valley.
