Barbuzzo Salted Caramel Budino Pops

13^TH STREET IS ABOUT TO GET A LITTLE SWEETER

WITH THE DEBUT OF CHEF MARCIE TURNEY’S BUDINO FROZEN POPS

PHILADELPHIA, PA – Beginning, Friday, August 16, Chef Marcie Turney will debut Budino Frozen Pops, a summertime twist on her wildly popular budino dessert offered at Barbuzzo, the Mediterranean kitchen and bar located at 110 South 13^th Street.  Chef Turney’s salted caramel pudding dessert became an instant classic receiving high acclaim from Bon Appetit, The Philadelphia Inquirer and Philadelphia Magazine.  For a limited time, the Budino Pop will be available at the Marcie Blaine Chocolate counter in Verde (108 South 13^th Street, 215-546-8700), for $5 each.  The pops will be available on Fridays, Saturdays and Sundays until the end of August, from 12 noon until 2 p.m., and are sure to sell out each day.

Budino Pops feature the same creamy caramel pudding, frozen around a core of salted caramel and dark chocolate cookie crumbs, then hand-dipped in dark chocolate coating and sprinkled with Maldon sea salt.  Each comes on a popsicle stick and makes for a perfect mid-afternoon treat.
