This week we're joined by Victoria Young - owner of Vic's Hand-Crafted Ice Cream and ice cream artist - for a conversation about inspiration, pushing your creative muscles, and what it takes to make a business and product that people come back to again and again. Topics include taking the leap from concept to business, ice cream artistry, going from popup to physical location, ice cream innovation, branding, and using flavor, presentation and experimentation to build a food experience.
