What would make a summer day in New Jersey even better? How about an ice cream sandwich that practically looks like a piece of art?

That’s how I felt when I discovered the treats served by The Baked Bear.

The ice cream shop already has two locations in the Garden State and we have another one coming soon!

For anyone unfamiliar with The Baked Bear, they offer made from scratch cookies, brownies, and ice cream - but there’s a twist.

Customers can mix and match which flavors of cookies, ice cream flavors, and toppings to make a custom ice cream sandwich like you’ve never seen.

Like this one, packed with Lucky Charms and topped with a vanilla glaze:

Or the Pistachio Walnut Chunk described as a “perfect blend of crispy on the outside and soft on the inside sprinkled with sea salt.”

Bear Tracks: Mini M&Ms, sprinkles and Oreos

Or the deliciously chaotic Kitchen Sink, consisting of pretzels, potato chips and chocolate chunks

“O.M.G.” is an understatement.

Other offerings are ice cream cups/cones/pints, sundaes and Bear Bowls, which are warm cookie or brownie bowls with ice cream.

There are shops in Long Branch and (brand new!) Asbury Park. They also run a food truck that you can spot around the Jersey shore.

The new Baked Bear location will be at 72 Easton Ave in New Brunswick, NJ 08901.

An opening date has not yet been announced but it will be this year, according to their Instagram. Here’s hoping there are more in our future!
