Sandwich-Flavored Ice Creams

Handel's Peanut Butter and Jelly Flavor is Creamy, Sweet and Nutty

— August 31, 2024 — Lifestyle
Handel's Homemade Ice Cream Handel's Peanut Butter and Jelly flavor has been created by the brand as the perfect back-to-school frozen treat for consumers to enjoy this fall. The ice cream starts off with peanut butter ice cream infused with a strawberry ripple and pieces of shortcake throughout to give it a sweet, creamy and nutty profile. The ice cream is arriving now at the brand's participating locations where patrons can enjoy it in a cone, dish or takeout in a pint, but will only be on offer through the end of September.

CEO Jennifer Schuler spoke on the Handel's Homemade Ice Cream Handel's Peanut Butter and Jelly flavor saying, "Certain foods strike up strong childhood memories, and our new Peanut Butter and Jelly Ice Cream captures that nostalgia in every scoop. We love to innovate by reinventing timeless classics, a tradition we’ve upheld throughout our nearly 80-year history. Now more than ever, guests seek familiar, indulgent flavors with a modern twist. Our new flavor offers a universal appeal that sparks kids’ imagination while rekindling fond school day memories for parents and grandparents.”
