While I was doing some research last month, I came across something called “SuperChill Ice Cream,” and I was immediately intrigued. I found them on Instagram and went to their website, and learned that SuperChill is an ice cream bike business founded in 2022. It is run by two youngsters, William and Daniel (and their parents).

I knew I wanted to learn more about this kidpreneur business, so I reached out via email and we set up a time to meet. Here is what I learned about SuperChill.

But regardless of your level of religiosity, Easter can be a sweet time: Brunch, holiday candy, wine, and feeling grateful for spring are All Good Things. After all, Easter’s spring placement has origins in Oestre/Eostre, who is goddess of spring and fertility.

Here is where you can enjoy Easter’s tasty charms in Portland

I like to eat unsweetened chocolate bars and I like it. Yes, that’s the 100% cacao product with no sugar added—not even alternatives like coconut sugar, allulose, monk fruit, or stevia. You are probably thinking, “What is wrong with this gurl?!?”

I know this might be a hard sell for some of you reading this—and I know it’s a controversial take, esoteric at best—but I am here to encourage you to take a chance on it. In exchange, you get a payoff of deep cacao flavor, complex tasting notes, and a new chocolate experience.
