Baskin-Robbins is turning a classic childhood meal into a delicious new dessert with the launch of its new PB ‘n J ice cream.
The new PB ‘n J ice cream is Baskin-Robbins' exciting new Flavor of the Month for April 2023. As you might have guessed from the name, the new ice cream is meant to taste just like a classic peanut butter and jelly sandwich. The creamy frozen dessert starts with a combination of brown butter-flavored ice cream and smooth peanut butter ice cream, all of which is swirled with sweet grape jelly. As Baskin-Robbins' Director of Product Research & Development, Jeanne Bolger,, explains: "Nothing sparks more joy than the nostalgic taste of peanut butter and jelly, which is why we decided to put a contemporary twist on the tasty and timeless treat with our new PB ‘n J Ice Cream."
