Deceptive Gray Ice Creams

The Sunshine Pint from Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams is Not What It Seems

While rainbow-hued desserts may be trending, Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams is taking a bit of a different approach with its new Sunshine Pint.

Jeni's new Sunshine Pint is a buzz-worthy new flavor that's described by the brand as: "Sun-kissed lemon and sweet-tart tangerine with radiant passion fruit. Tastes like sunshine on a cloudy day." With such a sunny description, you might expect the pint to be a bright yellow hue. However, the ice cream inside is actually a dusty gray color. The idea behind the deceptive pint is to provide consumers with a "pleasant reminder that things aren't always as they seem"—a message that seems especially timely right now.

The Sunshine Pint is now available for delivery from Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams' scoop shops and online store.
