The Häagen-Dazs Shops Sundae Series is a new line of ice cream sundaes developed by the brand with indulgence in mind, but also experience to give consumers a reason to keep coming back and trying the different options. The menu features the Caramel Cone Sundae, Chocolate Dipped Strawberry Sundae and the Hot Fudge & Caramel Sundae, which will all be on offer through November 4, 2026.
The brand is introducing the Sundae Funday Club rewards experience alongside the sundaes that will reward new and existing members with a buy one, get one free offer on every remaining Sunday in July. This encourages continuous patronage to get fans back in every week to build a stronger connection between brand and consumer.
Head of Marketing Rachel Jaiven commented on the Häagen-Dazs Shops Sundae Series saying, "Any reason is a good reason to treat yourself, whether you're celebrating something special or simply making it through the week. The Häagen-Dazs Shops Sundae Series and Sundae Funday Club were created to give people another reason to embrace the small moments of indulgence, turning an ordinary Sunday into something worth looking forward to this summer."
