FASTEST GROWING BEN & JERRY'S FLAVOR JOINS NEW NON-DAIRY LINE UP

Tuesday, January 9, 2024

Strawberry Cheesecake was Ben & Jerry's fastest growing, top-selling ice cream flavor in the past 12 months, rising to the #4 spot in 2023. That's not the only reason Strawberry Cheezecake was selected as the newest Non-Dairy offering -- the clincher was that it was a fan-favorite during tastings of the company's brand new, smooth and creamy Non-Dairy oat base. As there is no real cheese in this cheesecake flavor - given its Non-Dairy, vegan profile - Ben & Jerry's dropped the word "cheese" in the name. Rest assured, it has all the right stuff: namely, a decadent strawberry "cheezecake" base with a luxuriously smooth mouthfeel, along with a thick graham cracker swirl that adds the perfect amount of texture and crunch. Some testers even preferred the new Strawberry Cheezecake Non-Dairy over Ben & Jerry's Strawberry Cheesecake ice cream!

  • Strawberry Cheesecake was Ben & Jerry's fastest growing, top-selling ice cream flavor in the past 12 months, rising to the #4 spot in 2023.

  • The new oat base really showcases the ingredients and lets the strawberry 'cheezecake' shine through," said Flavor Guru Colleen Rossell.
