Porsche to release limited-edition ice cream pops to celebrate National Ice Cream Day in US

In case you didn’t know, Americans celebrate “National Ice Cream Day” every third Sunday of July. Reportedly, the day dedicated to ice cream was all thanks to former President Reagan who wanted to commemorate the frozen treat.

On National Ice Cream Day, various ice cream companies in the US give out free desserts and discounts. Porsche North America, on the other hand, will release limited-edition ice cream pops inspired by the marque’s custom paint colors to celebrate National Ice Cream Day.

“This has been a fun project and one we hope will evoke a smile, just like the customizable colors available on all of our cars. We genuinely thought there weren’t many things cooler than one of our special colors for your dream Porsche, but this ice cream might just have that beat. Pretty Cool Ice Cream has been as meticulous and passionate as we are about getting the color just right — and on top of that they’ve come up with delicious flavors to match. We hope Porsche fans and enthusiasts of all ages will enjoy the ice cream as much as we’ve loved creating it!” said Porsche Cars North America Marketing Vice President Ayesha Coker.

The British carmaker has tapped Chicago-based company Pretty Cool Ice Cream to launch five unforgettable flavors. The following five ice cream pops were created with eye-catching packaging to match:

• Mint Green: A green mint cookies and cream ice cream with a mint green white chocolate shell.
• Strawberry Red: Cream cheese ice cream dipped in a strawberry red shell. Made with real freeze-dried strawberries.
• Macadamia Metallic: Roasted macadamia ice cream in a sparkling macadamia metallic colored chocolate shell.
• Frozen Berry Metallic: Black raspberry ice cream in a sparkling frozen berry-colored ruby chocolate shell.
• Lime Gold Metallic: Key lime pie ice cream in a sparkling lime gold-colored caramel shell.

“My uncle, ‘Targa Dan,’ has always had a passion for restoring Porsche cars and has brought over 200 cars back to life over the last 50 years, so I grew up very close to the brand. When Porsche reached out to me to make some custom ice cream inspired by the paint colors, I was thrilled. Similar to all Porsche sports cars, the ice cream pops are truly a passion project that I couldn’t be more excited to share,” added Pretty Cool Ice Cream Owner Dana Salls Cree.
