Blue Bell's New Limited-Time Flavor May Be Its Best Summer Release Ever
Blue Bell's newest flavor is berry delicious and packed with flavor, perfect for enjoying on a hot summer day.
The beloved creamery introduced what may be the best summer flavor ever, Black Raspberry Fudge, to its seasonal lineup on Thursday, May 21.
Black Raspberry Fudgeis described as a "decadent combination of black raspberry-flavored ice cream with dark chocolate-flavored chunks and a chocolate fudge swirl."
The flavor will be available in stores starting today, in half-gallon and pint sizes, but you have to act fast, as it's only around for a limited time.
"This is the first raspberry flavor to join our lineup in a few years, so this will be a treat for many," said Joe Robertson, executive director of advertising and marketing for Blue Bell in a press release shared with Parade.
As Robertson emphasized, the "sweet, yet tart black raspberry ice cream" blends perfectly with the chocolate chunks and fudge swirl.
"The flavor is decadent, indeed!" he added.
Fans on social media were thrilled with the newest flavor addition, writing, "I think I shed a tear" and "veryyyy excited!"
"As we head into summer and the hottest months of the year, ice cream becomes the go-to
sweet treat for many," Robertson said, noting, "We're proud to offer a delicious lineup with something for everyone to enjoy."
This includes Blue Bell's seasonal fan-favorite, Peaches and Homemade Vanilla, as the annual return was quietly announced on social media earlier this week.
There's also one of the newer additions, Brookie À La Mode, which is a trio of desserts in one spoonful, blending rich, creamy brown sugar ice cream with chunks of brownies and soft chocolate chip cookie pieces.
And we can't forget Blue Bell's entry into high-protein dairy desserts, with the PRO pints released in March, packed with up to 12 grams of protein per serving across several flavors-Chocolate, Coffee, Salted Caramel, Strawberry and Vanilla.
