April Fools! New Ben & Jerry's Gelato!

With the introduction of the new core lineup and a few flavors to be released later this year, do you still feel like Ben & Jerry's is holding back a bit? Shouldn't there be something else? Where's that silly, mix-in fueled fire that seems to be hiding these last few years. Sure, they have their moments, and this year includes Cherry Garcia becoming a greek froyo and we should finally see candy bar pie in the pint form, but I want old school Ben & Jerry's with out-of-the-box thinking awesomeness. I want crazy! And I want it now!

So what new line up is this being teased on social media? 

See, we've done some digging and have found out what's coming up for both pints and scoop shops... Ben & Jerry's Gelato!! With Haagen-Dazs, Breyers, and even Graeters getting in on the gelato action, what choice did they have? Talenti has proven it's a profitable market, so who can blame them? The good news is that someone will finally bring mass amounts of mix-ins to the gelato market.

Enough stalling, here's the initial line up.

Figitaboutit
Honey gelato with a caramelized fig swirl and pizzelle pieces

Italian Stallion
Caramel gelato with a salted caramel swirl and fudge filled stallion chunks

Latte Biscotti Crunch
Coffee and sweet cream gelato swirled together with chocolate covered biscotti chunks

Sleeping with the Fishes
Vanilla bean gelato with a river of fudge, white chocolate blocks and fudge fishes

Zeppole for Me
Sweet cream gelato with swirls of pastry cream, fudge flakes and chunks of zeppole

So, are you excited now? Let us know your favorite in the comments!


Update: I'm sorry, but all these flavors are a figment of Nick's imagination! The photos? They're actually the city flavors Ben & Jerry's created last year. All I did was do a little tweaking so these could be mass produced and threw it all together in a story. Hopefully you've had fun visualizing these flavors. Back to the real stuff tomorrow!
