Austin Gets a New Biscuit Ice Cream Sandwich

Bird Bird Biscuit and Lick Honest Ice Cream are collaborating to make your sweet-tooth dreams come true.

In celebration of National Biscuit Month, Lick Honest Ice Cream and Bird Bird Biscuit are teaming up for a one-day-only ice cream sandwich on Sept.15.

The process is simple: Take a few scoops of any of Lick's unique local flavors, then sandwich it between a perfectly warm, buttery biscuit. The most difficult part will be choosing which flavor to go with, but–let's be honest–there's really no way you can go wrong. (That being said, we suggest trying the "Figgy Biscuity," which will be made with Lick's Fromage and Fig ice cream and slathered with their house made fig jam.)

With these unique local flavors, Bird Bird Biscuit co-founder Brian Batch says the collaboration has been months in the making.

"To be able to pair a biscuit with Lick’s artisan ice-cream just seemed like a natural pairing for us,” Batch says. “It’s the passion that both our companies have for doing things unique and local.” 

The Figgy Biscuity ice cream sandwich, along with other pairing possibilities, will be available at all Lick Austin store locations on Sept. 15.
