Taylor Swift surprises teenage ice cream shop owner in Pennsylvania with flowers

A teenage ice cream shop owner in Pennsylvania received four dozen roses this week from Taylor Swift, in recognition of a line of Swift-inspired ice cream flavors.

Ripleigh Maring is the 16-year-old owner of Ripleigh’s Creamery, which features an “Eras Collection” of flavors including a “Bad Blood” red velvet cake, a “Karma” honeycomb, and a “Look What You Made Me Do” brownie batter caramel chunk. Spiked options include the “Feeling 22” White Claw black cherry Italian ice and the “Calm Down” strawberry margarity Italian ice.

A video shared by Ripleigh’s Creamery shows Ripleigh being surprised by the delivery of a vase full of four dozen red roses. The bouquet included a note from Swift, apologizing for not being able to visit during her Eras Tour stop at Lincoln Financial Field in Philadelphia this weekend.

“I’m sure Karma is amazing. You are so creative! Keep working hard to pursue your dreams,” the not read.

Ripleigh’s Creamery currently serves two locations, in McSherrystown, Penn., and nearby Emmitsburg, Md., with a third opening soon in East York, Penn.
