These new Alden’s Organic ice cream products have been unveiled by the brand as a limited-edition range of options for consumers to pick up this fall as a way to satisfy their craving for a chilled treat. The ice cream flavors will include Pumpkin Cheesecake and Peppermint Twist, which will both come in sqround tubs as well as novelty bars. The Pumpkin Cheesecake is a pumpkin ice cream with a swirl of cheesecake, while the Peppermint Twist is a peppermint bark ice cream with peppermint candy pieces throughout.
