16 Handles returns all glown up



16 Handles recently returned from its closed-for-renovations state on Second Avenue between Ninth Street and 10th Street with new signage that no longer looks like 16 Hindles.

Here's more on the new look via the EVG inbox from Friday...

In celebration of the brand’s 10th birthday, 16 Handles East Village has a fresh new look, complete with custom neon signs, the brand’s signature bold colors, and exposed brick, giving the East Village store the ultimate glow up. The brand will also be working with local artists to paint murals to amplify the space.

The store has also incorporated an entirely new element — #TreatsBy16 counter-serve Fro-Yo, ice cream, and desserts — by bringing a soft-serve machine behind the counter. The very first product to launch with this new concept is the #GalaxyCone ... a deliciously sweet combination of Cotton Candy and Sweet Taro Pie frozen yogurt, served in a cotton candy cloud cone with stars and galaxy-themed hues of blue, pink, and purple.

Holy crap, I got diabetes just looking at the picture. I'd give a mint to know the chemical content of that thing.

Feel somewhat bad for all these fro-yo places. Back when the trend started, people were still very much into low-fat foods. Now it seems like (dietary) fat is in vogue, and people are eating regular ice cream with abandon. On second thought looking at that purple and blue cone, how could anyone feel bad for these health-hazard peddlers. One could even argue, reasonably, that such proprietors are actually enemies of good health.

Let's all eat more ice cream. It's a slightly more wholesome food than fro-yo, which tends to be highly engineered.

Nothign defines healthy eating like High fructose corn syrup

They should call it 16 Love Handles, because that’s what you’ll get if you eat too much FroYo.
