I’ve been in Michigan for the weekend. A good friend of mine from college got married.
While I was here, I thought I’d dive into some of my favorite foods that come from my home state.
Mackinac Island is a very small island that covers about 3.8 square miles in the Northern most part of Lake Huron in Michigan. Mackinac Island was a military outpost during the War of 1812. Now it’s a vacation retreat for families from all over the area who are looking to get away and absorb a little bit of great local history.
When you walk up and down the streets, you’ll see lots of candy shops filled with amazing fudge. It became so popular that the fudge became known as “Mackinac Island Fudge.”
Well a person, who can only be described as a genius, made the brilliant decision to put it all into ice cream. Hence, Mackinac Island Fudge Ice Cream was born.
Over the weekend, I was out running some errands with my parents, who still live in Michigan. We picked up some Mackinac Island Fudge Ice Cream that’s made by Hudsonville Creamery, which is based out of Holland, MI.
It’s DELICIOUS. It brought back so many amazing memories of walking down to the corner convenience store in the summer growing up and getting ice cream cones with Mackinac Island Fudge Ice Cream.
If you love chocolate, vanilla, and fudge, you’ll LOVE this ice cream. The next time you’re in Michigan seek it out. It’s well worth it.
