I scream, you scream, we all scream for Ice Cream! And in 1984 then President Ronald Reagan heard us, by declaring July national ice cream month. So, take a walk to your local scoop shop and order up a double dip. Don't forget to bring home a pint. Better yet, try your hand at home made ice cream: find out how to make your favorite flavor in the Ice Cream and Frozen Desserts section of our Recipes tab. For the ultimate in ice cream bliss, try making an ice cream sandwich with our fresh baked Chocolate Chip Cookies. Or really indulge in a gourmet hot fudge sundae with our Milk Chocolate Fondue, which makes as a decadent ice cream topping.

Flavonoids, also found in wine are types of pigments that are water-soluble and created by plants of many varieties. There are thousands of different flavanoids. Plants use flavonoids in the process of photosynthesis.
How the human body actually uses and/or processes flavonoids is still not determined but they have been linked to good health in many areas - particularly blood circulation.
If you are a science buff, then you'll be interested to know that flavonoids are polyphenolic compounds containing 15 carbon atoms, two benzene rings joined by a linear three carbon chain. If you're just an average, everyday person with a sweet tooth, then you'll be interested to know that good things are contained in a single bite of dark chocolate. So please, put down the chemistry book and enjoy some today!
