Ben & Jerry's has churned up a euphoric creation in honor of The Late Show funnyman Stephen Colbert - a vanilla ice cream pint with fudge-covered waffle cone pieces and a caramel swirl. The collaboration between the ice cream brand and the TV host began back in the fall of 2006, when Ben & Jerry's Flavor Gurus started tinkering with Colbert's personal take on ice cream perfection. Test batches were so well-received that word quickly spread about the secret project. The rumor became reality when Colbert invited Ben and Jerry to join him in announcing the collaboration during an episode of The Colbert Report. Since its introduction, the flavor, aptly named AmeriCone Dream, has been a huge hit with consumers.
What many may not know, however, is that the partnership is, as Colbert puts it, "saving the world." The fund named in honor of the flavor supports charities of concern to the comedian, such as food and medical assistance for disadvantaged children, helping veterans and their families, and environmental causes. In this way, every spoonful of the euphoric AmeriCone Dream ice cream contributes to making a difference.
Alongside its charitable initiatives, Ben & Jerry's is committed to using high-quality, responsibly sourced ingredients in all of its products, and the AmeriCone Dream ice cream is no exception. The vanilla-based dessert is made with non-GMO sourced ingredients, including Fairtrade Certified sugar, cocoa, and vanilla. It also contains eggs from cage-free hens and is packaged in responsibly sourced packaging. Consumers can feel good about indulging in this delectable treat, knowing that they are supporting a brand that prioritizes ethical and sustainable practices.
Whether it's the flavor's delightful combination of vanilla, fudge-covered waffle cone pieces, and caramel swirl, or the positive impact it has on charitable causes, the AmeriCone Dream ice cream from Ben & Jerry's is truly a win-win for everyone involved. From the Colbert Report to the grocery store shelves, this euphoric creation has captured the hearts and taste buds of ice cream lovers everywhere.
