BEN & Jerry’s has announced the release of Churray for Churros! – a new flavor based on the beloved fried dough treat.
The iconic ice cream maker described the new flavor as a “cinnamon celebration” in a press release.
Churray for Churros combines all the best elements of a churro into a “decadent ice cream,” according to the release.
“We interpreted the crunchy, sugary exterior of the churro into a swirl and buttery cinnamon ice cream for this flavor, while the cake-like interior texture of a churro is incorporated as soft, indulgent pieces throughout,” said Natalia Butler, a Ben & Jerry’s flavor guru who worked on the new ice cream.
While the new flavor is already loaded with various swirls and chunks, Butler is encouraging fans to add even more flavors to satisfy their cravings.
“We gave fans the base, but if you want to amp it up, you can have it your way with some chocolate or caramel drizzle,” Butler said.
The pint is now available at grocery stores throughout the nation at a suggested retail price of $5.99 to 6.49.
FAN REACTION
Released late last month, Churray for Churros already has some positive fan response.
“Dear Ben & Jerry’s, Churray for Churros is simply the most delightful thing I’ve ever had in my life,” one fan tweeted at the company.
Another user, skeptical of the new pairing, asked whether Curray for Churros was indeed a real flavor, to which another replied: “Yes, it’s a real flavor and it’s delicious, had some for dessert tonight!”
And one user already hopes it remains a permanent offering.
“Please do not ever stop making this. It’s amazing,” they said.
