I ordered in bulk because these were in pint sizes and I imagined they'd be eaten quickly like the bars I've had from Costco. It was an extremely warm week when I had ordered these and they came a day late but completely still frozen. In fact, fresh out of the box I still had to thaw it a little to get the creamy texture I enjoy my ice cream at. It doesn't disappointment and these completely replace the ice cream my kids eat as well. I like to leave theirs still completely frozen and hard so they can't eat too much at a time. It's a bit pricey for a pint so can't indulge too often, but when we do it's quite a treat!
