Amy's Ice Creams Brings Valentine's Day Vibe To Austin Airport

AUSTIN, TX — Weary corporate warriors: Scratch off the excuse that you were stuck at the airport for a business flight off your list as justification for forgetting to buy a Valentine's Day for your sweetheart.

Why? Because Amy's Ice Creams is now selling their famed chocolate-covered strawberries at the Austin-Bergstrom International Airport. The delicious treats are now available at the Amy's kiosk in bag claim near Carousel 5 and the Amy's concourse food court location near Gate 12. The treats are available for purchase from 9 a.m. to 8 p.m. from Feb. 12-14.

Dipped in Belgian Callebaut Chocolate and topped with a white chocolate drizzle, the fresh, handmade desserts are $12 for a half dozen or $20 for a full dozen. Each order is wrapped in an adorable gift box, yielding a gift that doesn't seem spontaneous but thoughtful and deliberate.

So no excuses, travelers. Don't neglect your sweetheart. After presenting your gift, you might want to take your lover to dinner. If we may take the liberty, behold our guide to restaurants preparing romantic dinners on Feb. 14, with a list of other related events at the bottom.
