While we may be just a few weeks into 2023, Ben & Jerry’s is already giving its fans a reason to break their New Year resolutions and indulge with a duo of delicious ice cream innovations. The Burlington, Vt.-based ice cream processor has added two more flavors to their fan-favorite Topped collection: Bossin' Cream Pie and Raspberry Cheesecake. The Topped lineup, complete with decadent top layers of chocolatey ganache, launched in 2021.
Bossin' Cream Pie evokes the flavors of the classic custard-filled doughnut. Digging into the initial milk chocolate ganache layer, vanilla custard ice cream with cake pieces and pastry cream swirls elicits a trip to your favorite bakery all in a pint. Raspberry Cheesecake Topped is a zingy, tart journey that begins with a white chocolatey ganache and graham cracker crumble as a top layer and features a cheesecake ice cream with graham cracker pieces and rich raspberry swirls.
"We wanted to create a fun, cafeteria nostalgia moment with these new flavors inspired by classic desserts. The Bossin' Cream Pie transports fans to that first doughnut bite the way the rich, crunchy chocolate ganache hits tastebuds," says Flavor Guru Haylee Nelson. "The floral, fruity raspberry flavor of the Raspberry Cheesecake hits you and brings that cheesecake texture to the forefront. If you shake the pint before you open it, you can hear the sound of what's waiting inside — the graham cracker crumbs on top.”
Both flavors are full-time additions to Ben & Jerry's Topped offerings and can be purchased for a suggested retail price of $5.99-6.49 for a 16-ounce pint.
