Gresham in the spring is a singular experience. Warm fragrant breezes fill the air, lush foliage emerges after a frosty hibernation, and amidst rapidly rising temperatures, Mt Hood retains its snowy peak as it oversees this blossoming suburb nestled snugly in its shadow.  Gresham is also just a fun place to be in springtime, as evidenced by these upcoming springtime events:

Winter is looking like it may be finally fading into our rearview, so we’ve concocted these new and exciting froyo sundae creations to celebrate the return of warm weather. Check out these fantastic candy-themed sundaes that honor and adorn a blooming spring in Gresham.

3 Candy Themed Sundaes You Have To Try

Movie Theater Candy Counter

Fill your cup with Salted Caramel Corn froyo before topping it with Sour Patch Kids, malt balls, and Reese’s Pieces. Bold sundae eaters should top their creation with chocolate sauce, whipped cream, and a maraschino cherry.

Super Fruity Rainbow

Combine Guava Pear Tart froyo with Georgia Peach froyo and top with peach rings, Skittles, raspberries, strawberries and jelly beans. Finish this candy tower with a touch of caramel sauce and a dollop of whipped cream.

Easter Basket

Start with a foundation of Vanilla and Cake Batter froyos. Top your sweet ivory tower with yogurt chips, marshmallows, coconut and white chocolate chips. All this glistening white may evoke memories of a particularly snowy afternoon, but rest assured, this sundae will balance a reverence for winter with an invitation for spring.

Enjoy these sundaes, create your own, or indulge in a Cascade Glacier ice cream cone or milkshake.

-The oldest operating manufacturer and seller of peanut butter has been selling peanut butter since 1908

-Americans spend almost $800 million a year on peanut butter

Now that you’re up to date with your antiquated peanut butter history, here are three sundaes to enjoy as you celebrate this flavorful holiday.

Peanut Butter Cheesecake – Fill your cup with cheesecake froyo before liberally burying it under mounds of peanuts, rivers of caramel sauce, and a generous scoop of Butterfinger pieces.

You Got Your Peanut Butter in My Chocolate! – Lay a foundation of crushed peanuts in your cup before filling it with rich, classic chocolate froyo. Top with more peanuts, hot fudge, and a big scoop of Reese’s Peanut Butter Cups.

Pad Thai Ice Cream Sundae – Combine coconut froyo, crushed peanuts, shaved coconut, and waffle pieces to create this nod to a classic Thai dish.
