From the Ben & Jerry’s Website:
Over 40,000 fans fancied themselves flavor innovators and created their own funky chunky ice cream. We have narrowed it down to the top 5 who will come to Vermont to bring their flavor to life! Who will be named the Ultimate Flavor Guru? Will it be…
The finalists:
- Robin Thorneycroft, 25, of Richmond, B.C., who suggested a flavor she calls Italian Renaissance, made of amaretto liqueur ice cream, cherry chunks and sliced almonds.
- Timothy Link, 36, of Troy, Idaho, whose suggestion was Mojito, a lime-based sherbet with mint, brown sugar and rum added in.
- Kerstin Karlhuber, 25, of Boston, whose Wackie Chan would be sweet cream and ginger-flavored ice cream, with chocolate-covered fortune cookie bits and fudge swirl.
- Tasha Callister, 26, of Jackson, Fla., whose Puttin’ on a Ritz would consist of vanilla ice cream, caramel and Ritz crackers.
- Reina Chilton, 26, of Tempe, Ariz., who recommended “ApricotAbra,” a mix of apricot chunks, dark chocolate, vanilla ice cream and tart apricot preserves.
Personally, I totally vote for ApricotAbra.
