Freebie Friday - Giant Ice Cream Cone

My grandmother owns an ice cream shop in Michigan (yes it does seem like an oxymoron but she does, yes it is only open for 6 months out of the year and yes it is the coolest job ever.)  I have been asking my grandmother for 20 years to design the logo for her shop and she has never let me do it.  After the last t-shirt design which she was not pleased with she finally let me have a go at it (yesterday).  She told me she wanted a little boy holding the giant ice cream cone.  The ice cream cone is significant they are known as the Biggest Cone in Town - the photo below shows how big one of their large cones are - yes that is me I was 16 when the photo was taken.)

I decided that the cone should be held by Booga (my son) because if anyone would run away with an ice cream cone that big it would be him.

So here is the design I did for my grandma's shop (yes that is how she spells dairy and cream).  So if you ever find yourself in Escanaba, Michigan (my hometown) look up Jim's Dari Kreme and stop in for a giant cone or an E.T. Sundae (chocolate ice cream, peanut butter topping that is homemade and Reece's Pieces - it is a whole lot of heaven in one container).

If you click on the logo it will take you to their Facebook Page - they do not have a website.

Since my grandma is an awesome lady she said I could offer the little boy with the cone as a Freebie for the Digi Shoppe.

The ice cream is blue, it is actually Bluemoon which is a flavor for soft serve ice cream and frozen yogurt.  Bluemoon flavoring was invented in my grandma's kitchen in the 1950s by my grandfather and a couple of his "mad scientist" buddies, who owned Bancroft Dairy in Escanaba, Michigan.  Bancroft Dairy was sold to John Jilbert of Marquette, Michigan and is known today as Jilbert's Dairy.  Jilbert's sold the recipe to National, which supplies flavorings to Ice Cream and Frozen Yogurt Shops all over the country.  I personally love Bluemoon Ice Cream but it is a love it or hate it flavor of ice cream.  I recommend if you ever have a chance to try Bluemoon Ice Cream it is worth it!
