These Tillamook ice cream flavors are arriving as a series of limited time offerings perfect for helping consumers to embrace the shift into the autumn season. The products include the returning Sugar Cookie Ice Cream alongside the all-new Espresso Chip Ice Cream, which both put rich, cold weather flavors in focus. The Sugar Cookie Ice Cream features a cookie dough flavor with cookie dough bites and sugar pieces, while the Espresso Chip Ice Cream has an espresso flavor with chips of chocolaty espresso beans throughout.
The Tillamook ice cream flavors are launching in 1.5-quart tubs and could be the first of several flavor innovations slated to hit the market as we head into the cold weather months.
