omg i tried one of these cakes and it was HORRIBLE the "frosting" tasted like play-dough. i'm not making this up 0_o the ice cream in the middle was okay though
@CrystalWolves978 I doubt that you tried THESE cakes. Carvel was a local/small chain in greater New York area, and the cakes were delicious. Not the same today.
@elithecat Yeah of course (I was in northern CT). Was keeping it simple for someone who obviously is from nowhere near there, to get the point that it was a local thing. Based in White Plains sorta area of NY, and radiating from there. I'ved tried a Fudgie in Cali a few years ago, and it was nothing compared. For Cali people, NY-CT-MA = same thing :)
@CrystalWolves978 Another 'reverse endorsement' for transnational corporations owning local businesses.
Once the standard of quality goes down the tubes, it's a disaster.
Multi-million dollar conglomerates just want to make the maximum profit for the lowest cost, bottom line.
Old Tom C knew the tendency was to let quality slip so dealers could make more, which was why he kept everything under his control. He knew the deal and didn't want his name on a lousy product headed down the tubes.
Tom Carvel believed in his product, 100%. He wasn't a plastic, rehearsed, polished, faux-sarcastic eunuch, which is all most of you've ever seen on TV. He knew more about "effective advertising" than all of the degree laden marketing majors will for the next 1000 years. The stores were really consistently good, for a chain type operation, they're still around today.
Makes me glad to see that so many people have heard the Patton Oswalt "Tom Carvel" bit. If you listen to it, wait until your kids are out of earshot because it's extremely profane - wouldn't want your kids to come in and hear it. They might have a few questions: "Mommy (or Daddy)? Why is Remy the Rat swearing? And who's Paddy O'Cripply?"
There was a hilarious comedian who poke fun at these commercials, and the creator's voice. Who was that comedian? He was funny all around however I can't remember his name to save me.
The "boy" in the video is me...I thought I had succesfully destroyed all copies of this video...where did you get this from??? and i'm not special needs btw lol
@darena917 What a great little 'blast from the past'! All good clean fun, a kid giving his pop an ice cream. No fake sarcasm, no crap..I always saw the kid throwing his Dad a lifeboat with ice cream fishes and love. from Fudgie the Whale. What a fun/non-slick time. Mr. Tom (C) was a real unpolished gem, no b.s., a workaholic.who knew more about effective advertising than all of the master's degrees in marketing did in the last 100 years. Totally genuine guy who believed in his product.
For some reason, these Carvel commercials bring out the schizo in me. In this one he almost sounds sarcastic, at 0:19, even though he couldn't possibly be. (Could he??) I've seen another Carvel commercial in which he's laughing as if he's drunk. That couldn't be possible.
At :16 to :18 -- Sorry, but (the late) Mr. Carvel always sounded like he was spitting all over the ice cream when he spoke on his company's ads. Made me wanna switch to Friendly's (LOL) !
Seroiusly now, I sorely miss the Carvel Ice Cream shops. Fortunately they made the transition to supermarket sales!
hahahaa... that thing weighs 54 oz it says.... thats like 4 and a half pounds... and the fuckin kid singin is creepy to... sounds like his voice was altered... the nightmares of the 80's... this shit would come on between my cartoons as a kid i remember this shit like it was yesterday
