RSS

Ice cream sales have been ticking up, showing some promise in the ever-competitive category. Sales of frozen novelties, meanwhile, have not been faring as well. Unit sales have been falling, and dollar sales have been nearly frozen.

The new ice cream is made with a combination of cookie dough-flavored ice cream, crushed cookie swirls and cookie dough pieces.

Eugene, Ore.-based Alden’s Organic Ice Cream released two holiday flavors of ice cream: pumpkin spice (blend of organic cinnamon, nutmeg cloves and real organic pumpkin) and pink peppermint stick (blend of organic milk, cream and peppermint candies).

All of Ben & Jerry’s decisions are guided by its three-part mission statement: to make the best products, to be financially successful and to stand up for social causes. From start to finish, these principles also drive the operations and the floor workers at the company’s ice cream factory in St. Albans, Vt.
