Ben & Jerry's - What more would you want?

This year, Singapore’s taking summer heat to the next level. Before you know it, you would be panting, fanning yourself furiously and drenched with sweat under the merciless sun. But fear not, Ben and Jerry’s has got the perfect remedy. A sweet serving of all natural ice cream that would definitely tickle your taste-buds and sate your cravings.

Treat yourself to an endless selection of mind-blowing ice cream, ranging from unique flavours with names like Chunky Monkey, Chubby Hubby, Turtle Soup, Phish Food, Dublin Mudslide, Cookie Dough and much more, including my personal favourite, Strawberry Cheesecake. They have a hard texture, a rough surface that melts into a soft and creamy liquid that would run down your throat. Before you know it, your tub or bowl of ice cream would be licked-clean, but its sweetness would still linger on your tongue. No doubt Ben & Jerry's has my vote for the best ice cream ever made.


What's more, if you have missed the Ben & Jerry’s Chunk Fest – hoho – you are gonna regret this big time! This is the first-ever ice cream festival held at the Fort Canning Green, organised by the good people of Ben & Jerry's. Best of all, admission is FREE for all – and that means you have got no excuse to miss out on the fun. There were 34 flavours available, including the 12 exclusive flavours that were available for that special day only!

The outlet at VivoCity is quaint. Together with your friends and family, you would feel young again seated in those little stools, made to look like cow-bellies. Do not forget to make a wish at the "Wishing Tree", although you would have to wait in line for your wish to be granted, considering the many others who have made wishes too. And although their ice cream is pricey, I left Ben & Jerry's satisfied and craving for more.

Ben & Jerry's : my certified guilty pleasure.

Peace, Love, Ice cream.

  1. Jeanette,

    that was a splendid introduction. We can definitely identify with the sweltering weather! Good description on how the ice cream makes its way to your stomach.

    p.s. do a comparison between Ben & Jerry's and island creamery someday, maybe?
