There aren't too many celebrities in the world of ice cream except the two guys we're fond of storing in the freezer. Well, move over, Ben & Jerry, because Jeni Britton Baeur of Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams is the next big thing. Don't believe us? This year, she won a James Beard Award for her cookbook, Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams at Home.

This weekend, you have a chance to get a signed copy of her award-winning book. Four chances, to be exact. Jeni will be appearing at the AJ's Fine Foods stores in Phoenix and Chandler on Saturday, and on Sunday she'll be visiting two Scottsdale locations. And yes, you will also get a chance to taste her incredible ice creams. The entire holiday collection of Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams will be featured at the book signings, including Boozy Eggnog, Dark Chocolate Peppermint, Goat Cheese with Cognac Figs, and Sweet Potato with Torched Marshmallows.
Not only do visitors get to sample the treats, but those waiting in line to get their cookbooks signed will also get to see Jeni demo a special holiday sundae. It's made with her pumpkin five-spice ice cream and a drizzle of caramel sauce, making it an excellent dessert to dish up at your Thanksgiving celebration.

Keep Phoenix New Times Free... Since we started Phoenix New Times, it has been defined as the free, independent voice of Phoenix, and we would like to keep it that way. Offering our readers free access to incisive coverage of local news, food and culture. Producing stories on everything from political scandals to the hottest new bands, with gutsy reporting, stylish writing, and staffers who've won everything from the Society of Professional Journalists' Sigma Delta Chi feature-writing award to the Casey Medal for Meritorious Journalism. But with local journalism's existence under siege and advertising revenue setbacks having a larger impact, it is important now more than ever for us to rally support behind funding our local journalism. You can help by participating in our "I Support" membership program, allowing us to keep covering Phoenix with no paywalls.
