Ben and Jerry’s Is Now Serving Ice Cream Bagels

Graphic by Angelie Zaslavsky
It’s only available in London, but Ice Ice Bagel is already making headlines. The new cross-breed of carbs and dairy is available at Ben & Jerry’s in Soho, London.
When Ben Cohen and Jerry Greenfield first decided they wanted to go into business together, they had their hearts set on infiltrating the bagel business. Though that never became a reality, as their first ice cream store opened its doors in 1978, now, 40 years later, “we are raising a spoon to what might have been,” the company wrote on its site.
There are two flavors, from the Birthday Bagel, consisting of vanilla cake batter ice cream complete with bits of cake batter and pink frosting, to the Holey Cara-moley, consisting of caramel ice cream smothered in caramel sauce with double chocolate brownie-flavored ice cream. Ice cream bagel breakfast, anyone?
Always pushing the envelope, Ben & Jerry!

This is a moment of great uncertainty for the news media, for the Jewish people, and for our sacred democracy. It is a time of confusion and declining trust in public institutions. An era in which we need humans to report facts, conduct investigations that hold power to account, tell stories that matter and share honest discourse on all that divides us.
With no paywall or subscriptions, the Forward is entirely supported by readers like you. Every dollar you give this Passover is invested in the future of the Forward — and telling the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
The Forward doesn’t rely on funding from institutions like governments or your local Jewish federation. There are thousands of readers like you who give us $18 or $36 or $100 each month or year.
