For June this year, Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams added to its range of ice cream collections with five pints that help to celebrate Pride Month.
The Pride Collection includes indulgent flavors like Gooey Butter Cake and Brown Butter Almond Brittle, each of which is packaged in a pint representing a color from the rainbow. Besides offering a fun way to partake in Pride Month festivities, the ice cream collection also helps to support LGBTQ+ community programs across the nation. 10% of sales from every collection sold will help to support The Los Angeles LGBT Center’s Lifeworks Program, St. Louis' Pride Center, OutCentral in Nashville and many more.
The colorful collection spotlights the flavors of American ice cream with ingredients like the grass-grazed Ohio milk included in the Salty Caramel pint.
