Pepsi Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 I love the blue ice cream, but unfortunately I can only make the trip about once a year. Are there any store bought ice creams that taste similar? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MrSourNinja Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 Sadly, I don't have the answer to this but I was wondering: what is the actual flavor of the blue ice cream? I've never had it and feared that it is cotton candy flavor (I hate that flavor). Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Pepsi Posted June 26, 2019 Author Share Posted June 26, 2019 I think it's blueberry? It definitely has a berryish taste to it in my opinion. Edit: I just looked it up and it is blueberry! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Joshua Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 The blue ice cream, formerly known as "Smurf ice cream," is blue raspberry. I haven't found it in the ice cream aisle in stores, but there is a candy shop at Liberty Center that offers blue raspberry gummies. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently, some guy got in trouble (a long time ago) when a guest asked “how do you make the ice cream blue?” He responded saying, “We grind up The Smurfs and throw em’ in there!” 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Magenta Lizard Posted June 26, 2019 Share Posted June 26, 2019 It is blueberry. It is not blue raspberry. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ashley Kohler Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 There is a local ice cream place called Whipty-Do that has the closest blue ice cream to Kings Island that I’ve ever had. But, based on how you worded your question, I’m assuming you aren’t local to the area. Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been looking up blueberry ice cream and I keep getting results for ice cream with actual blueberries in it. No, you fools - I don't want real blueberries, I want artificial blueberries! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
flightoffear1996 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 In NKY area an ice shop called Sharkys mags very good blue ice cream. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
homestar92 Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 The Goody Shop in Colerain Township on the corner of Hamilton Ave and Springdale Rd has blueberry soft serve that's dead on. The Dip in Fairfield has blueberry as their flavor of the month for June (so hurry, there's only a couple days left) and the flavor is dead on but the color is completely wrong as it's the actual purpleish color of blueberry juice. You won't easily find something similar in a store because it's soft serve and not ice cream, so you can't exactly go buy a pint of it.

Yippee Skippee Posted June 27, 2019 Share Posted June 27, 2019 You could always make your own. I have done it before. And the flavoring is raspberry and lemon. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's probably where I was getting "blue raspberry." A lot of things with that flavor taste similar to "blue ice cream." Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
presto123 Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Don't get me started on ice cream. I just found out most Dairy Queens got rid of the butterscotch dip cones. Butterscotch beats the heck out of their chocolate dip cones and I'm usually a big fan of chocolate. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpectralBeacon Posted June 28, 2019 Share Posted June 28, 2019 Jeni's Supermoon Ice cream is really similar (I think its mostly Columbus based but ive seen it down in Cinci). Its a Blueberry Marshmallow blend. Its a little hard to find from store to store and its also more pricey than most ice cream, but it's really good! If you are in Yellow Springs, theres a small Ice cream place that has Blueberry Ice Cream, It tastes pretty much the same (as far as i remember) Just doesn't have as much blue coloring. And as stated above, theres a local Ice cream place called Whipty-Do! That has the exact Blue Ice cream the park sells. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Sent from my iPhone using Tapatalk I know it doesn't help the OP, but I am going to second the Whipty-Do suggestion! I know they are usually open at least March through November and is nearish to KI so you can get your fix without going to the park. They do have the blue ice cream and it is actually what KI offers; the owners went through quite the process to get it and maintain supply. Plus, gotta throw a little support out there for the owners (family of mine). Check em out! Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
kingsislandfan1972 Posted February 18 Share Posted February 18 The Blue Ice cream at Kings Island is my favorite, we don't have the exact flavor in Michigan but we have Blue Moon, and honestly it's not the same as Kings Islands ice cream.
