Moomers’ Super Kid!

Tastemaker
By Lynda Wheatley | April 23, 2022

It’s a bird, it’s a plane, it’s…SUPER KID! It’s the latest flavor to come out of the kitchen at Moomers Homemade Ice Cream, and its April debut is no accident. The Traverse City-based cool spot crafted the heavy-on-the-sprinkles concoction for kids in recognition of National Child Abuse Month. Moomers been dedicating proceeds of each scoop sold to Traverse Bay Children’s Advocacy Center, the nonprofit that provides free abuse-prevention training to organizations, plus intervention and counseling services to child abuse victims around the North. The only thing that could make this ice cream any better? Pie. And cookies. And muffins. Thankfully, Grand Traverse Pie Company is also in on the cause, donating to TBCAC 25 cents of every single baked good sold in April. Before April ends, pitch in for the kids in your community: Visit Moomer’s at 7263 N. Long Lake Road in Traverse City (open 11am to 9pm daily) and GT Pie, which has two locations in Traverse City, 525 West Front St. (open 8am to 6pm Monday through Saturday) and 101 N. Park St. (open 9am to 4pm Tuesday through Saturday).
