Here at heatworld our taste buds tingle and the very mention of cake. We’re also partial to a bit of ice cream every now and then (read: at least twice a day – it’s borderline a problem) and so when we heard the geniuses over at Ben & Jerry’s had come up with a delicious new birthday cake and ice cream hybrid we practically wept with joy.
The new flavour boasts notes of vanilla cake batter, hints of pink frosting and touches of strawberry swirls – oh, and there’s also little pieces of actual birthday cake mixed into the creamy goodness.
It’s a full-on party in a tub, tbh.
“We love sharing our celebrations here at Ben & Jerry’s, so we decided to creat a slice of something extra special,” Ben & Jerry’s Flavour Guru (what a job) Catherine Goffinet explained.
“Birthday Cake is loaded with everything we love about cake; frosting, strawberry swirl, and moreish mouthfuls of sponge cake pieces too. We think it’s the perfect excuse to celebrate!”
Just to make the new flavour that bit extra appealing – and ease off some of that post-indulgence guilt – all the ingredients in the new ice cream are Fairtrade.
In other foodie news, Subway now have an introduced a new vegan sub. We've been hoping Subway would up their vegan sarnie options for a while now. A Meatball Marinara's all well and good, but it's hardly gonna be a vegan's sub of choice.
So THANK THE SANDWICH GODS one of our fave lunch spots is finally offering a 'steak' substitute.
For those of you sick of settling for a plain old salad sandwich given the chain's limited vegan options, we have GOOD NEWS. Their new Vegan Delite sub contains 'steak'-that-isn't-steak and is set to be a favourite amongst our plant-based pals.
