Overview
Global ice cream company Ben and Jerry's is best-known for its chunk-filled scoops and bizarre flavour titles like 'Schweddy Balls' and 'Dave Matthews Band'. After releasing an over-the-top creation for both ice cream and burger lovers earlier in the year, the brand has now unveiled its latest frankencreation in its 'Fast Food Series'.
The 'Dough-licious Pizza' is the ice cream-pizza hybrid that no-one asked for. Available by both the slice and as a whole pizza, the creation features a baked base made from Ben & Jerry's cookie dough and comes filled with a layer of the brand's chocolate chip cookie dough or chocolate fudge brownie ice cream.
From there, you get the choice of two toppings — from chunky cookie dough pieces to brownie chunks, crunchy nuts and chocolate-dipped pretzels — plus a drizzle of either hot fudge or caramel sauce. Of course, hardcore ice cream lovers can push the boat out and select all of the above.
The pizza is the second in a series of crossbreed creations from Ben and Jerry's inspired by New Zealand's favourite fast foods. 'The Impossible To Eat Burger' was described as "the messiest ice cream ever."
The 'Dough-licious Pizza' is available for a limited time and is exclusive to the Commercial Bay, Ponsonby, Mission Bay and Christchurch scoop shops. It is also available to order on UberEats. For more information, visit benjerry.co.nz.
