Ok. I thought the produce aisle packed a punch of fresh, fun food ideas.

Nope.

Tucked into the back of Bi-Rite is their "creamery" case, all homemade with local organic milk and artisanal ingredients.

I know the photo is frosty – and my live blogging habit means Blackberry camera – so let me detail exactly what all my northern california sweets bars/ice cream parties will feature:

Balsamic Strawberry (my favorite taste test)

Creme Fraiche

Mexican Chocolate with salted peanuts

Honey Lavender (as a florist I felt a tad bit cannibal-esque tasting fresh lavender…)

Chocolate Coconut

Brown Sugar with ginger caramel swirl

Roasted Banana (yum…on dense molten lava cakes?)

Salted Caramel

Wow.

Are you as speechless as I am?

No wonder the line wraps around the block…
