- Anything chocolate. Let's just get that one out of the way, because it's obvious!
- Banana or banana fudge. It has to be creamy and smooth, not icy. We once went to a place that specialized in banana soft-serve, and it was amazing. That shop, I'm sad to say, has been replaced by a Walgreens. (Nothing against Walgreens, but this was banana ice cream!)
- Raspberry. We know an ice cream shop that has raspberry soft-serve. They'll swirl it with vanilla, if you like. I wish they could swirl raspberry with chocolate, but the raspberry itself is wonderful. Turkey Hill black raspberry ice cream, from the supermarket, is pretty good, too.
- Mint--but it can't be green. This is my son's contribution to the list. He likes mint chocolate chip, but he'd like it just as much without the chips.
- Coffee. It has to be creamy; Philadelphia-style just won't do. We don't purchase this often because no one else in my family really cares for it.
- Coconut or coconut fudge. We don't have this often, either, because it's not widely available. But it's really delicious!

By the way, I happened to catch a TV segment last night (on Food Network, maybe) about a place called eCreamery. You can choose your flavor of ice cream and your mix-ins; they'll make the ice cream and ship it to you. It's not cheap, but they have some interesting choices for flavors (e.g., chipotle, lavender) and mix-ins (e.g., thyme, bacon) as well as familiar favorites. They offer a non-dairy sorbetto base, as well as gelato and ice cream bases. And you can name your flavor and choose from three designs of packaging. Looks like fun!
Banana fudge? Interesting...
