Fans can enter for a chance to win on Instagram, an announcement outlining the giveaway will be posted to both brand’s channels @vanleeuwenicecream and @lovesac through July 23 at 11:59pm. Check the channels for what to do to enter.
At the celebration on Sunday at the Tribeca Van Leeuwen Scoop Shop, guests were given the chance to win a Lovesac x Van Leeuwen Honeycomb CitySac, the new Material ice cream scooper, free ice cream, autographed cookbooks, and also receive special ice cream discounts.
Ben Van Leeuwen, CEO and co-founder, said, “Honeycomb began as a limited-time special, and it took on a life of its own. People fell in love with it, and we quickly added it to the menu year-round, and it’s now one of our most popular flavors. We’re excited to celebrate the flavor on National Ice Cream Day, and to bring it to life in a new way with our friends at Lovesac.”
Honeycomb, or “Hokey Pokey” as it’s known in New Zealand and Australia (where co-founder Laura O’Neill is from) is a sweet cream ice cream with pieces of honeycomb candy throughout. Van Leeuwen coats half of their honeycomb in a little coconut oil and leaves the other half uncoated, which results in crunchy pieces and gooey ribbons of caramel throughout.
