SYRACUSE, N.Y. — We all love ice cream, but wouldn't it be great to get paid to eat ice cream?

Believe it not, there is a way you can get paid to eat the frosty treat. 

American Dairy Association North East is looking for its first ever honorary Chief Ice Cream Officer (CIO) to highlight Pennsylvania's dairy farm creameries.

“We want to spotlight the amazing family dairy farms in Pennsylvania and promote that many of them make delicious, local ice cream on site,” says Patrick Carney, the association’s vice president of marketing and digital strategy.

The job of the Chief Ice Cream Officer is to sample ice cream and share your experiences through social media. 

The job is open to New York State residents and the honorary Chief Ice Cream Officer will be paid $5,000 to visit 20 creameries.  They expect the "ice cream road trip" will take about two to three weeks and all travel expenses will be covered. 

If you're interested in the job, you must be at least 18-years old, have a valid driver's license, access to a car and active car insurance. You must also be a legal resident of Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Delaware, Maryland, New York, the District of Columbia, or Virginia.

You will also be required to submit a video via TikTok or Instagram explaining why you should be chosen to the CIO.

“Judging will be based on creativity, originality and excitement for ice cream,” Carney says. “We want someone who is excited about going on a road trip and visiting family farms. They should be adventurous and love creating videos and posting on social media.”

The deadline to apply is May 20.
