Inspiration really can come from anywhere... so hopefully you wont find it too odd that that this post was inspired by Haagen-Dazs Ice Cream - the previously discontinued and now newly-released *Vanilla Honey flavor to be exact!
There is a bit of a history to this all actually. When I was a girl my sister and I were not allowed to eat sugar (this is probably why I have such a sweet-tooth now). Fortunately for us the only exception my Mom made to this was a rare and savored trip to the Haagen-Dazs shop where we always delighted in a scoop of Vanilla Honey in a waffle cone. What heaven! My Mom, sister, and I have often mused wistfully after our beloved Honey Vanilla... so you can imagine our extreme delight yesterday when we found Haagen-Dazs carrying it again! Of course we had to try it immediately... and I am happy to report that it is every bit as exceptional as I remember from over 20 years ago! Thank you Haagen-Dazs!
*Haagen-Dazs has re-released this flavor for a limited time with proceeds going to fund research to protect disappearing honey bee populations. You can see more about their mission here. There you have it! xox Ez
