Central Smith Creamery Celebrates Success Of 'Moon Mist' Ice Cream With Tie-Dye T-Shirt Community Event
/To celebrate the high sales of their latest ice cream flavour, Central Smith Creamery put on a ‘Moon Mist Tie Dye Day’ community spirit event to mark the early success at their Selwyn facility on Friday afternoon.

Central Smith sold out 65 tickets to their event that allowed children and adults to make and take home tie-dye t-shirts in the same colours as their ‘Moon Mist’ ice cream that debuted in March.
It consists of three flavours, banana, blue bubblegum and grape. The flavour is popular in Nova Scotia and Central Smith took a playful approach to introducing Moon Mist into their lineup with their community event.
“This was to have a bit of fun with the character that we created, the little alien,” said Jillian Scates, Central Smith project manager. “We just wanted to bring lots of people to the factory and have some fun.”
