Complementing the grocer’s winning pies are SEG’s new frozen desserts from its Own Brand lines Know & Love, Prestige and SE Grocers. Among these delights, Prestige offers its limited-edition ice cream flavors including Prestige Strawberry Cookies & Cream through the end of April, which features the grocer’s award-winning strawberry ice cream with crushed, crème-filled cookies.
