Sundaes Best

Sweet Indulgence

Jeff Shinaman and Katie Camarro always knew the hot fudge sauce that Jeff’s mom made was exceptional. Friends encouraged them to bottle it, and they thought about it. But it wasn’t until a discovery in the classified ads that Jeff and Katie finally decided to share the family’s treasured sundae sauce with the world. That discovery? A 1956 International Harvester Travelall van. It was the perfect vehicle, loaded with character, for spreading the word about Sundaes Best Hot Fudge Sauce.

Handmade in the hills overlooking Saratoga Springs, N.Y., Sundaes Best sauces are made with real chocolate and cocoa, plus milk, cream and sweet butter from a local dairy. The original hot fudge sauce is creamy and smooth -- the ultimate chocolate lover’s delight. Sundaes Best also offers flavored varieties, including Chazzy’s Cherry, Russell’s Landing Raspberry, Howard’s Hazelnut, Marilyn’s Mint, Olivia’s Orange, Patty’s Peanut Butter and Jean’s Java. They’re perfect for topping ice cream, fruit and cake. Or if you’re like us, you might not be able to resist eating them by the spoonful!
