Ben & Jerry's Truffle Kerfuffle Ice Cream

[New for early 2017] Looks like Ben & Jerry's is going to be first to put new pints on the shelves this year, though I suspect new Haagen-Dazs isn't far behind (I spotted a pint of coffee H-D sporting their new packaging design in two different stores). We know that there are at least three new flavors coming: Oat of this Swirled, Urban Bourbon, and...

Ben & Jerry's Vanilla Peanut Butter Cup Pint Slices

[New for early 2017] Have you heard about the new Ben & Jerry's Pint Slices yet? For at least a few years now, Ben & Jerry's has talked about slicing an ice cream pint horizontally and then sticking those slices between cookies for some fun ice cream sandwich action, but what if they made things a bit easier for us? I present to you...

Cumberland Farms Rapturous Black Raspberry Chocolate Farmhouse Ice Cream Sandwich

[New for Summer 2016] Snow had me running late yesterday and my car was running low on gas, so I pulled into Cumberland Farms to fill up me and the gas tank.

7-Eleven Pepsi Black Cherry Slurpee

[New for Jan 2017] I missed the cherry vanilla slurpee that came out last January, but I'm not missing this cherry cola one... mainly because there's a giant sign for it staring me in the face!

Haagen-Dazs Trio Ice Cream Coming Soon!

Do you know what we have here? According to Haagen-Dazs, it's actual insides of one of their new Trio pints. How epic does this look?

We talked about it on the Nosh Show and I was very curious how Trio was going to work. H-D was nice enough to tweet back and verify this is how it will look. I've looked at this picture several times and it still blows my mind (I do love an epic crunch factor). I wish I could convince H-D to give me a tour of the machine that makes these pints!

coffee vanilla chocolate is layers crispy chocolate and coffee & vanilla ice creams

triple chocolate is layers crispy chocolate and white & milk chocolate ice creams

vanilla blackberry chocolate is layers crispy chocolate and vanilla & blackberry ice creams

Salted Caramel Chocolate is layers crispy chocolate and  salted caramel & chocolate ice creams

Those are the four Trio flavors coming out this year. We actually scoured a couple of Providence grocery stores this morning to make sure that they hadn't gotten it before my area did. Are you as excited for these as I am? If you see these, let us know!

Thanks to Patrick for pointing out that the H-D website just updated. It looks like we've got three new ice cream bars on the way in a packaging that is kind of similar to the Trio packaging. Two of these look delicious, and the third one I will probably never try but I'm sure some of you will thoroughly enjoy.

White Chocolate Raspberry ice cream bar is "white chocolate ice cream with swirls of tart raspberry is dipped in milk chocolate and then sprinkled(?) with dark chocolate".

Vanilla Dark Chocolate Cookie ice cream bar is "vanilla ice cream bar infused with a cookie crunch then immersed in dark chocolate and garnished with waffle cookie pieces".

Coconut Dark Chocolate Caramel ice cream bar is "coconut ice cream and ribbons of rich caramel draped in dark chocolate and finished with flakes of toasted coconut".

And someone else has pointed out some of the new ice cream pint flavors that are available.

espresso chocolate cookie crumble is coffee ice cream swirled with cookie crumbles and sprinkled with chocolate espresso flakes.

toasted coconut caramel is swirls of dulce de leche caramel and toasted coconut flakes in coconut ice cream.

bourbon praline pecan is bourbon ice cream infused with brown sugar bourbon swirls and the praline pecans.

Apparently none of these flavors is meant for me to try. Question: how do you feel about the new pint design? When you put them side by side, it's easier to notice that the backgrounds are not identical. And more importantly, which one will you grab first?
