Bristol Farms

At Jeni’s “We create ice creams we fall madly in love with, that we want to bathe in, that make us see million-year-old stars. We devour it out of Mason jars, coffee mugs—whatever we can get our hands on. Handmade American ice cream = Bliss with a big B. Every single thing we put in our ice cream is legit. Generic chemist-built ice cream bases and powdered astronaut-friendly gelato mixes? No, ma’am. We build every recipe from the ground up with luscious, Snowville milk and cream from cows that eat grass. With that exquisite base, we explore pure flavor in whatever direction moves us at any moment, every day, all year.”

Bristol Farms is proud to offer Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams!  Hand-crafted using amazing and unique flavor combinations.  Our stores will be offering: salty caramel, dark chocolate, pistachio and honey, brown butter almond toffee, brambleberry crisp, and whiskey and pecans.  Each pint features a cute and personal hand-written label.  You can really tell how much love is put into crafting these ice creams.  I can’t get enough of the salty caramel and pistachio and honey flavors!  These pints pack a lot of punch and even though you will want everyone to know how good Jeni’s Splendid Ice Creams are, you may not be able to give up even one spoonful to someone else.  Stop by your local Bristol Farms, pick up a pint of Jeni’s and let us know if you agree with us in saying: “One pint is just NOT enough!”

Stop by our Dairy Department today and say “hi” to Clo the cow.  The beloved mascot Ms. “Clo the Cow” is the face of Clover organic dairy products, a new arrival to our dairy case.  Everyone at Clover, from Clo the mascot to the folks milking the cows, work hard to make sure they deliver the freshest product with the highest quality right to your local Bristol Farms.  The mission of Clover  is to deliver great dairy products to our consumers.

Clover Organic Dairy products are made using milk & cream that’s sourced locally from a very small selected group of 100% organic family farms in Sonoma and Marin counties, in the North Coast of California.  The local California family farms, or “Clover Producers,” are committed to the sustainability of their land, welfare of their cows, and produce the highest quality milk pool in the country.  The milk and cream that’s produced by the “Clover Producers” is sent to the plant the same day the cows are milked and it is fresh pasteurized to ensure quality while preserving its fresh farm taste and nutritional value.

Not only are Clover Dairy items produced using the highest quality standards in the industry, but the product also reflects that in the taste.  Besides having a great fresh taste, Clover milk also prides itself on being rBST and antibiotic-free, gluten free, Kosher, low sodium, and of course, an excellent source of calcium.  Amongst all of its great attributes, in 2000, Clover Dairy became the first U.S. dairy processor to be awarded the American Humane Certified label for humanely produced dairy products by the American Humane Association.

We invite you to Clo ahead and enjoy Clover Organic Farms Milk and Cream products in a good conscience and good health!

The days are longer, the sun is brighter, and the candies are pastel. It’s springtime for many parts of the world once again, and in celebration of its triumphant return we enter into the a world filled with marshmallow Peeps, jelly beans, and other well packaged bits of sweetness sure to bring about a sugar-induced coma.

Easter has risen high in the candy hierarchy over the years. It is now the second top-selling candy holiday, just barely behind the epic to sugar that is Halloween. Of the estimated 8 billion pounds of candy consumed in the United States each year, Easter makes up a very large portion of the pie.

It all started with Hot Crossed Buns, when in 1361 a monk named Father Thomas Rockcliffe began the tradition of giving Hot Crossed Buns to the poor of St.Albans on Good Friday . Another treat that became a well known part of early Easter tradition was the baked pretzel. This baked food also became a symbol of Easter Goodness in the early 1800’s.  During the same period, chocolate was all the rage. It was the choice of the middle and upper classes in Europe for a treat. Chocolatiers started forming chocolate in shape of eggs (symbolizing fertility and re-birth) to celebrate the Easter season.

Fast forward to the 20^th century: In the 1930’s, the ever popular jelly bean was added to the Easter lineup. Jelly beans, believed to be descendants of a Mid-eastern confection known as Turkish Delight, were already a very popular candy in America by this time and were featured in glass jars on store counters all over the country. In 1954, the Just Born Candy Company introduced the first Peep Chick. This most well known gooey, marshmallow, sugary staple for this holiday; Americans buy 700 million annually.

We could go on and on. Instead, come on in to Bristol Farms and see what we have. From the traditional Easter egg, to the delectable cupcakes. We have chocolate Easter bunnies, spring lollipops, robin malted Eggs and more. Everything you will need to treat a love one or yourself!
