Remember when the most wonderful thing in the world
was an ice cream sandwich? It still is. Except now it’s called
a Nye’s Cream Sandwich. Christian Nye, former executive
chef at both Holiday Inn SunSpree Resort and Cape Fear
Country Club, creates these amazing sandwiches by hand
— homemade ice cream, home baked cookies — with the
help of his wife, Kelly. Some of the most popular flavors are
peppermint cookie, root beer float, strawberry shortcake
and s’mores. This fall, the Nyes are hoping to make seasonal
flavors such as pumpkin, caramel apple and blackberry cobbler.
“The biggest goal we have is to keep everything family
friendly,” says Kelly. You can find Nye’s Cream Sandwiches
at Pine Valley Market, the Port City Java in Porter’s Neck
and on Market Street and in their very own freezer at the
Children’s Museum of Wilmington. — Amanda Thames
