BUHL • Cloverleaf Creamery is known for its Idaho potato-flavored ice cream, but the chunky concoction is certainly not owner Bill Stoltzfus’ favorite flavor.
“I probably shouldn’t say this, but I’m not extremely fond of it,” said Stoltzfus, who’d much rather have a scoop of strawberry. “But it’s a tourist attraction, a novelty.”
Of the creamery’s 24 flavors, co-owner Donna Stoltzfus, Bill’s wife, ranks the potato ice cream dead last. The creamery discontinued the flavor last year, but complaints poured in. Within a month, the Stoltzfuses brought it back.
This week, Cloverleaf is debuting a product that both Stoltzfuses agree is delicious: yogurt. After weeks of trial and error, they have a batch they believe is worthy of being sold.
Cloverleaf, owned by the couple for the past five years, has ambitious plans to expand its product line. After selling milk, cream, butter and related items, the family-owned company will soon begin selling yogurt (later this week) and cottage cheese (likely within 6-8 weeks).
