Haagen Dazs is off ering customers in
Flushing the chance to win free ice cream
for a year.
To celebrate its grand opening on
Friday, April 26, Haagen Dazs is inviting
community members for a taste of their
delicious super-premium ice cream and
sorbet fl avors at its brand-new location
at Th e Shops at Skyview Center, located
at 4024 College Point Blvd, from 11 a.m.
to 10 p.m.
Th e festivities will continue through the
week while supplies last, with free rewards
for guests, including a free scoop of ice
cream to the fi rst 300 guests, scratch-off
cards (valid until June 30, 2019) with the
chance to win free ice cream for a year
($500 value), and a free cone or other
surprise rewards — everyone is a winner,
according to shop owner and operator
Alex Hsieh.
“Th is location is actually the center
of Flushing because people come to
Skyview because this is a one-stop center,”
said Hsieh. “Hopefully a lot of people
will come in for free ice cream and the
scratch-off .”
Customers can choose from 24 fl avors
at the Haagen Dazs Shop, where ice cream
is made from natural ingredients and no
artifi cial colors, said Hsieh.
“We always carry the popular fl avors
such as mint chip, chocolate chip, dulce
de leche,” said Hsieh. “Th ere’s Irish cream
brownie — it has a little bit of spirit which
is alcohol — and we also have another fl avor
called Bourbon vanilla bean truffl e
with a little hint of spirit.”
Additionally, the store also serves other
fl avors such as caramel corn (their best
selling) and coconut pineapple, among
other choices. Additionally, Haagen Dazs
makes unique sundaes and milkshakes
that customers won’t be able to buy anywhere
else, said Hsieh.
“We’re very excited to off er one of the
best ice creams to the community,” said
Hsieh. “We already had a soft opening
on March 22 and we do see that a lot
of people appreciate that Hagen Dazs is
in Skyview.”
According to Hsieh, although there are
a lot of other vibrant ice cream shops
in the area, Haagen Dazs diff ers with its
selection of fl avors and natural ingredients.
“At the end of the day it’s really what
you eat … the fl avors,” said Hsieh. “My
belief is that Haagen Dazs is one of the
ice creams. We don’t have a fancy store
like other people that is very colorful and
fancy, but at the end of the day you’re eating
ice cream. It’s natural with no artifi -
cial colors.”
