Outside the air is crisp, and the foliage is ablaze with vibrant reds and warm topaz. Inside however, we're still savoring the tastes of summer.
Homemade Ice Cream is one of our year-long favorites. It is delicious on its own, with a drizzle of caramel, melted in coffee or hot cocoa, or sandwiched with a tart cherry spread between two soft, chewy cookies.
There are hardly any words that can properly express just how good this dessert is.
Smucker's Natural Fruit Spreads perfectly completed our ice cream sandwiches. Their Natural Fruit Spreads are made with non-GMO ingredients from natural sources real sugar and contain absolutely no preservatives.
The Natural Red Tart Cherry Fruit Spread is sweet and robust, speckled with bits of fresh cherries. It pairs perfectly with a variety of things such as chocolate, creamy cheeses, or in this case ice cream and cookies.
The bright, tangy complexity of Smucker's Blackberry Fruit Spread will bring the flavor of plump, orchard-picked berries right to your table. Try it as a sandwich spread or swirled in yogurt.
Another LTG favorite is the classic Strawberry Fruit spread- always fresh and naturally sweet. That goes for their Red Raspberry Natural Squeeze Fruit Spread as well made with lush, ripe berries.
Smucker's is a family trusted company that offers a variety of products to help make your meals more memorable, and Living the Gourmet is proud to stand beside them, sharing wholesome recipes from our table to yours.

Dear Catherine, These look luscious! What can be better than homemade cookies, with homemade ice cream and the fruit spreads add that special touch of flavor...Oh My Goodness, can't wait to try this idea. I love Smucker’s fruit spread. I have used the jars but never the squeeze bottles. Have to try these, they are a great idea, no fuss or mess. Just squeeze and have a fabulous mouthwatering treat. Thanks for sharing dear Catherine...Have a glorious day and week. Dottie 🙂

I enjoy the taste of molasses, but I don't know about it in ice cream. Yeah, you really need to send me a gallon or two to check out. Just don't send them with the same service you used to send my order of ribs--okay?
