Trader Joe's is transporting you to Italy with its new Figo! Half Dipped Chocolate & Vanilla Sandwich Bars.
In Italian, 'figo' means 'cool' or 'trendy' and that's exactly what Trader Joe's new Figo! Half Dipped Chocolate & Vanilla Sandwich Bars are. The eye-catching desserts are made by a supplier in Italy who takes a rich vanilla-flavored filling and sandwiches it between two chocolate wafers. The twist is that one end of each ice cream sandwich is encased by a chocolatey coating – almost like you're getting two different frozen desserts in one.
These new desserts are perfect for sharing and as Trader Joe's suggests, you can "pick up a few boxes and pass them out at parties or celebrations. Your guests will surely proclaim that both these Bars and your festa are fantastically Figo!"
