When it comes to sharing ice cream, the best option between a big tub (which may lead to overindulgence) and a pint (which may not provide a generous enough portion) is Scoop-apalooza, a new offering from Ben & Jerry's. This ice cream innovation made for sharing introduces a 28-ounce container for friends and families alike.
This larger format makes it easier to scoop and share crowd-pleasing Ben & Jerry's ice cream flavors like Vanilla & Fudge Brownie, Chocolate & Fudge Swirl, Strawberries & Cream, and Coffee & Fudge Chip—featuring coffee from BLK & Bold, which empowers youth and supports grassroots change in alignment with Ben & Jerry's activist spirit.
Before these share-worthy flavors officially hit shelves, Ben & Jerry's is giving people the chance to taste them first via social media giveaways.
