Dairy Club Creates Flavor

News EditorEducation, Ice Cream

The Iowa State University Dairy Club has created a new ice cream flavor in celebration of the school’s 150th anniversary. The club will sell Cyclone Celebration at the annual VEISHEA event this weekend as a fundraising event. You can click here to watch the dairy club members making the special ice cream flavor.

The annual VEISHEA event at ISU was named in 1922 and is an acronym made up of the first letters of the colleges at ISU at that time — Veterinary Medicine, Engineering, Industrial Science, Home Economics and Agriculture.

The rich flavor combines nearly 300 gallons of vanilla cream with boxes upon boxes of cake batter and 650 pounds of red and yellow sprinkles. Volunteers will keep the ice cream machines humming and scoop up the 8,000 cups of ice cream needed for this weekend’s sesquicentennial celebration.
