Michel Cluizel Gelato

Last year when I was in NYC, I was walking around near the shopping area at Broadway. Outside one of the shops there was a Yellow Ice Cream truck selling gelato made with Michele Cluizel Chocolates. Can anyone tell me what company it was? I cannot remember.

    The VanLeeuwen (sp?) ice cream truck is yellow, and it would be the most likely to have a gourmet flavor based on Cluizel chocolate. I think their location changes, but it's usually downtown on Broadway.

      Yes, they parked in Soho a lot this past summer. The truck is yellow, and often parked on Greene and Prince Streets. They do mention use of Michel Cluizel chocolate in their chocolate flavor.

        The UWS one may be in the garage for the winter. When the weather was getting chillier, they did have hot chocolate made with Cluizel chocolate

      Broadway runs for miles and miles- from the bottom of Manhattan to the top - with many shopping areas. It would help a lot if you can remember just where on Broadway you saw the truck.
