Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream Looking for a New Flavor Contest (http://www.benjerry.com/scoop_shops/dousaflavor/index.cfm)

What kinds of flavors would you like to see?

I think cinnamon, vanilla, with marshmallow swirl would be great.

I'd like for them to make something like a birthday cake ice cream (similar to Cold Stone's Cake Batter ice cream or Marble Slab's Birthday Cake ice cream). Mmmmm... I'm addicted to both of those. I'm thinking vanilla or sweet cream flavor ice cream with pieces of white icing and/or cake batter mixed in. :p

I'd love something with a salty/sweet combo. Theri Chubby Hubby has this (peanut butter, pretzels and vanilla and chocolate ice cream. SO good.) and I'd love something else that captured this mix of flavors.

Something with a combo of sweet cream, chocolate, pecans and maybe brownies.

I just wish I could by hard sweet cream ice cream somewhere. I like it at Cold Stone, but this little ice cream shop in New Haven sells hard sweet cream and it is the best ever. So Ben and Jerry's would make my life so sweet if they could do something with sweet cream.

There is a dairy near me that comes up with fun flavors for the appropriate season. My favorites are when they mix their vanilla which is awesome (very rich and creamy) with huckleberry cobbler or blueberry scones. It is so good. They also had an interesting rum, walnut, raisin with a little cinnamon this past holiday season...also very good.

OMG - I'm so entering the contest! I've been making tons of ice cream this summer and I think we've come up with some good flavors.

Now to narrow it down! Fun, fun!

I am so uncreative when it comes to this stuff. My favorite is coffee with heath bar from Coldstone but Ben & Jerry's already has that too.

I don't like my ice cream too complicated so I don't think I would ever win.

i would love a chocolate ice cream with peanut butter cookie dough, with some peanut butter and chocolate swirls.

or a cinnamon ice cream with gingerbread cookie dough and caramel swirls.

funny thing is that i really don't like chocolate chip cookie dough ice cream!

A few years ago I suggested Cadbury cream egg ice cream, but they apparently didn't like the idea. I love those eggs so much!

Let's see - chocolate ice cream, hazelnuts and rum raisins or vanilla ice cream w/ marzipan and chocolate chunks. :)

I made this once! Unfortunately the cream filling crystallized when it froze, and the texture was just yucky.

Funny, I was suggesting some ice cream flavors to DH last night, and he said "You should patent that!" I wonder if it's too late to enter the contest...

B & J used to make this...I remember eating it all the time, and now it's in the 'flavor graveyard'. :( I think it was called 'Reverse Chocolate Chunk.' It was REALLY good.

That's too bad they discontinued that. I submitted a white chocolate ice cream with white chocolate chunks and raspberry swirl.

I hate how B&J have all these crazy flavors with a bunch of crap in them, but they barely have any normal stuff for us non daring folk. I used to love bovinity divinity

DH and I were just complaining about this last night! All the flavors I can find at the grocery store are just too full of crap. I don't want three flavors of ice cream plus two different types of chunky things. Everything blends together and it ends up tasting like mud. Simpler flavors would be so much better.

I miss so many retired flavors. :( My favorite was Doonesbury: raspberry and blueberry sorbet swirled together.

Ashley's Sweet Cream really is the best! Ah, how I miss it....
