Jeni Britton Bauer, proprietor of Ohio-based Jeni s Splendid Ice Creams. She studied art at The Ohio State University, worked in a bakery, a-nd had a serious hobby blending perfumes a-nd collecting essential oils. It was the perfect foundation for a would-be ice cream maker.

Jeni Britton Bauer is constantly pushing the boundaries of unique treats, as evidenced by her lineup of limited edition flavors, including the Yazoo Sue With Rosemary Bar Nuts, a mixture of cherry wood-smoked porter a-nd rosemary, brown sugar a-nd cayenne pepper-dusted peanuts, pecans a-nd almonds.

Cherry wood-smoked porter beer by Nashville s Yazoo Brewing Co., grass-grazed Ohio milk, a-nd fistfuls of almonds, cashews, peanuts, a-nd pecans dusted with rosemary, brown sugar, a-nd cayenne.

Next time, maybe you can put some rosemary a-nd nuts into your ice cream machine.
