Ben & Jerry’s Introduces 7 Ganache-Topped Flavors

Ben & Jerry’s introduces its latest ice cream innovation, Topped, a new line of seven unique flavors covered with a chocolatey ganache.

Every Topped flavor is paired with a generous layer of chocolatey ganache on top. Whiskey Biz, for example, is a brown butter bourbon ice cream with blonde brownies and whiskey caramel swirls topped with white chocolatey ganache and white fudge chunks. This over-the-top flavor is produced in partnership with Vermont spirit sensation WhistlePig Whiskey, proudly featuring their award-winning 6 year whiskey, WhistlePig PiggyBack Rye, cooked into the caramel swirls.

And that’s just the tip-top of the flavor iceberg. The remaining six flavors are:

  • Chocolate Caramel Cookie Dough – Chocolate ice cream with caramel swirls and gobs of chocolate chip cookie dough topped with caramel cups and chocolatey ganache
  • PB Over the Top – Chocolate ice cream with peanut butter swirls and peanut butter cups topped with mini peanut butter cups and chocolatey ganache
  • Salted Caramel Brownie – Vanilla ice cream with salted caramel swirls and fudge brownies topped with caramel cups and chocolatey ganache
  • Strawberry Topped Tart – Sweet cream ice cream with strawberry swirls and pie crust pieces topped with white chocolatey ganache and candy sprinkles
  • Thick Mint – Mint ice cream with chocolate cookie swirls and mint chocolate cookie balls topped with chocolate cookies and chocolatey ganache
  • Tiramisu – Mascarpone ice cream with fudge swirls and shortbread pieces topped with espresso fudge chunks and chocolatey ganache

“We wanted to dial up the indulgence level with this unique line of flavors, which entirely challenges how you eat this ice cream,” said Dena Wimette, Ben & Jerry’s Innovation Guru. “We started with sundaes and all the things you add to sundaes to make them great as our inspiration. You could say we ended up going over the Topped.”

Topped flavors are available now at retailers nationwide with a suggested retail price of $4.99-5.49. Learn more, click here.
