![]() Since 2015, husband and wife team Rory Hanlon and Kristen Rummel have been serving the community of Boston with handcrafted ice cream you won't find anywhere else. Honeycomb Creamery is a truly unique ice cream establishment.

My friend had the combination of honey lavender, cinnamon dulce de leche, horchata, chocolate salted caramel topped with whipped cream, hot fudge, and sea salt. The house made toppings elevated this sundae to another level since the marshmallow and chocolate sprinkles are better tasting and made of better quality ingredients. Both lightened my sundae since the brown butter oatmeal cookie was sweet yet earthy and the matcha pistachio has the certain buttery flavor of the pistachio and earthy bitterness of the matcha tea. The Earl grey lemon had a wonderful balance of the bergamot and lemon flavors. The most surprising one was the bay leaf since it’s actually combined with lemon to mellow out the sharp bitterness and it transported me to the Mediterranean. Each ice cream was creamy, delicious and tastes like the flavor stated. My bowl (seen at the very top of this post) consisted of bay leaf, matcha pistachio, brown butter oatmeal cookie, and Earl grey lemon ice creams topped with torched house made marshmallow and house made chocolate sprinkles. It will not be smart of me to order one of each scoop in a large bowl and appreciate the various flavors and nuances each flavor could give me. Whenever I’m faced with many choices that sound good (at least when it comes to food), I want to try as many as possible and the best way for me to do that is opt for the Flight of Four that includes the housemade waffle chips. When we entered the shop it smelled intensely of burnt vanilla since her team was making the burnt vanilla bean ice cream while she’s working the front. ![]() What drew me to Honeycomb was the creative, sophisticated flavors like alfajores (one of my favorite Argentinian sandwich cookies filled with dulce de leche) and Earl grey lemon. We ended up at Honeycomb Creamery, a relatively new, artisan ice cream shop not too far from where I was staying. As usual, Mother Nature has her mysterious ways and gave us a decent day and a half of sunny weather that it felt mild enough to have ice cream – and it seemed like the town felt the same way. ![]() While I heading to Boston, I didn’t have a lot of hope for an ice cream weather since it was dreary when I left New York and by the time I’ve arrived there, it had this terrible mix of snow and sleet.
