In January, Baskin-Robbins launches a new flavor named after the picturesque city on the eastern shore of Vancouver Island: Nanaimo Bar. Granola pieces, French custard-flavored ice cream, and gooey ganache ribbons give this new flavor a distinctive taste that can be enjoyed as a cone, cup, milkshake, or sundae. It will be available at all 107 Baskin-Robbins shops across the country.
“We’ve been working on this special flavor for quite some time,” says Natalie Joseph, spokesperson for Baskin-Robbins in Canada. “Perhaps it’s felt long because I’ve been waiting desperately to sink my teeth into it. Now that I have, I can tell you it was worth the wait and effort. I can’t think of a better flavor with which to start 2022.”
