The ice creams come in two options including Strawberry Doughnut-eee and Churrifically Churros-y, which are each inspired by their respective namesake baked good. The ice creams each incorporate five different elements that work together to achieve a taste and texture experience that's satisfying for frozen treat fans alike to try this winter. UK Brand Manager Lucy McManus spoke on the new Ben & Jerry’s bakery ice creams explaining, "We’re thrilled to introduce two indulgent new ice creams from Ben & Jerry’s.
