More new Ben & Jerry's flavours!

I'm not sure if they've available in Ireland yet, but here in the UK we've got two (at least) new flavours:

Blondie Brownie: A Soft Salted Caramel Core Surrounded by Chocolate & Vanilla Ice Creams with Chocolate Brownie chunks & Blondie Brownie chunks

Peanut Butter Me Up: A raspberry jam core surrounded by peanut butter ice cream & vanilla ice cream with chocolatey peanut butter cups

I've got Blondie Brownie in the freezer for later

Raspberry jam core? That doesn't sound right!

Girlfriend said she's certainly seen "Blondie Brownie" here alright, but not the other one.

They are half price in tesco for paddys weekend (€2.99) only the new flavours though iirc

Toto Wolfcastle · 16-03-2013 07:28PM

Not a fan of ice cream with a core. I prefer it when the ingredients are mixed throughout the ice cream.

The blondie one sounds nice though. I could get over the core to have that.

Peanut Butter Me Up is on the Tesco website and it's half price until the 18th.

That peanut butter one sounds nice...

Stench Blossoms · 16-03-2013 07:51PM

OMG :O

Faith · 16-03-2013 11:05PM

I can confirm that Blondie Brownie is delicious.

UrbanSea · 20-03-2013 03:24PM

Hate,hate,hate the core ones. The peanut butter one does sound quite nice though

Blondie Brownie is amazing, defo worth a try!

Toto Wolfcastle · 21-03-2013 02:31PM

Blondie Brownie is really good. The caramel is lovely.

Boots234 · 21-03-2013 02:35PM

Is it only in Tesco that we can get these flavours?

penzo · 22-03-2013 05:31PM

ben and jerry's, y u no put a peanut butter core in the peanut butter ice cream !

loveisdivine · 22-03-2013 05:33PM

The peanut butter ice cream is lovely. The raspberry core not so much.

There's another new flavour called clever cookies!! Cant post the link because I'm on my phone but it is really really good. Picked it up in Tesco too!

Mr Simpson · 23-03-2013 04:49PM

If they were going to go with a core Ice Cream (I hate those). It should have been a chocolate ice cream, with a slightly salty chunky peanut butter core. Now that I would buy

Vanilla ice cream with a chocolate cookie swirl, double chocolate cookies and chocolate chip cookies.

Sounds amazing.

I dont think I'd have the willpower to keep them both untouched in the freezer for a week!!

Dolbert · 23-03-2013 05:50PM

They so very nearly got it right with the peanut butter one. The raspberry jam core ruins it, though it's not difficult to eat around it. The other two are next on my list

meoklmrk91 · 23-03-2013 05:59PM

The peanut butter one sounded can fab until the raspberry core bit, peanut butter and raspberry just no. Now if they had made it a chocolate core we could have been in business. The other two sound Nice, will be giving those a go.

Faith · 23-03-2013 07:24PM

Have the peanut butter one in the freezer for later. I assume they're going for a PB&J thing. I quite like raspberry jam, but am unsure about how it will work. I'm willing to take one for the team by trying it though

penzo · 23-03-2013 07:57PM

I only hit me now that the rasberrry and peanut mix is supposed to be like a peanut butter and jelly sandwhich flavour

I was disappointed by it. I enjoyed all the elements in it, including the core, but it didn't leave me satisfied the way B&J normally does.

The peanut butter ice-cream tasted weirdly like Crunchy Nut Cornflakes.

Roesy · 25-03-2013 10:48AM

I haven't tasted the peanut butter one or the blondie flavour but have tried a couple of the other core flavours and found that though I liked the icecream, the core itself seemed to have a weird coffee tang to it.
