Ben and Jerry’s Is Now Serving Ice Cream Bagels

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!

Did you know that only 2% of Forward readers donate to support our nonprofit newsroom? That 2% make it possible for millions to read the Forward without a paywall or subscription — removing any barriers to the full and fair Jewish story.
But while the Forward is free to read, it isn’t free to produce. Big stories — like deep dives into the antisemitism data, political scoops or reporting trips to college campuses — take months of research and fact-checking. All while we keep you informed of what you need to know each day.
