This past winter, Glace‘s decadent s’mores hot chocolate took over NYC, becoming a viral sensation!
Now, with summer upon us, the Upper East Side ice cream and dessert shop from Sasha Zabar is launching their vintage-inspired ice cream truck (think about a classic American ice cream truck merged with a vintage yellowish French Citroen) at Rockefeller Center, officially opening tomorrow, May 30th.
Will their frozen hot chocolate become the next big hit?
I just had the chance to preview Glace’s new creations and they taste delicious – heads up: they are very sweet 😋

🍫Trust a Chocoholic!
I could live on chocolate. I’ve covered the hot chocolate festival at City Bakery (a New York staple that closed before the pandemic) for years and have always been on the lookout for the next best chocolate experience. I love the frozen hot chocolate from Chocolate Room in Carroll Gardens, Brooklyn, and Glace has already become a favorite one in Manhattan!
