You probably are wondering what happened to some of your cold treats so we put together a list of discontinued ice cream to help you figure it out.
Oatmeal Cookie Chunk was a beloved Ben & Jerry’s ice cream flavor.
It included sweet cream cinnamon ice cream, oatmeal cookie chunks, and fudge chunks.
It was around from 2003 to 2012.
Ben & Jerry’s claims they discontinued the flavor when the supplier who made the oatmeal cookies stopped production. They couldn’t find a supplier to live up to their standards.
That sounds suspicious, and we are sure there are plenty of oatmeal cookie makers out there who would be eager to partner with the Vermont giant.
Häagen-Dazs Crème Brûlée ice cream was inspired by the classic French dessert.
It included a rich vanilla custard base with caramel swirls.
Sadly, Häagen-Dazs took the guillotine to the flavor and officially discontinued it in 2016. We don’t know why it was axed, but something tells us it was not because of the Brûlée.
Think back to your childhood in the 1990s; you might remember the popular frozen treat Popsicle Sprinklers. An ice cream stick covered in colorful, crunchy sprinkles.
They were discontinued in the early 2000s, likely due to changing consumer preferences. However, looking at social media today, you will find nostalgic fans eagerly awaiting its return.
It makes sense; who doesn’t want to eat a combo of sprinklers and ice cream?
Häagen-Dazs Blackberry Cabernet Sorbet came into existence in 2011.
Yeah, we know, not really a real ice cream. But it was a unique frozen treat that combined blackberries with cabernet sauvignon grapes.
Despite its cult following, it was discontinued a few years later.
Probably my favorite school favorite as a child. The Choco Taco.
It was an ice cream treat invented in 1983 with a waffle cone taco shell filled with vanilla ice cream and smothered with chocolate / peanuts.
It was a nostalgic favorite for over nearly four decades.
It was discontinued in July 2022 by Klondike (owned by Unilever) likely due to supply chain issues of the COVID-19 pandemic. Though there have been rumors of its eventual historic return.
Häagen-Dazs Bananas Foster was an out-of-this-world limited edition ice cream flavor inspired by the classic New Orleans dessert.
If you walk down the hip streets of New Orleans, you will find a desert full of banana ice cream with a rum-flavored swirl and pieces of caramelized banana.
Häagen-Dazs eventually put the bananas in the graveyard per its policy of rotating flavors.
Nothing makes me more nostalgic for childhood than Flintstones and ice cream.
To make things worse, their was such an item that existed in the 1990s called Flintstones Push-Up Sherbet Treats.
They featured fruity sherbet in a cardboard tube with Flintstones character branding.
The Flintstones-branded version was discontinued by the end of the decade, but luckily, you can still find Push-Up ice cream in frozen food aisles today.
Another non-ice cream/ice cream.
Ben & Jerry’s Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough Frozen Yogurt was introduced in 1994 as a lower-fat alternative to their famous ice cream flavor.
However, they discontinued it in 2001. From what we’ve learned, nobody wanted a cookie dough frozen yogurt. Stick to the real thing.
Famous for its coffee, Starbucks launched its own line of ice cream in 1996 with a bit of help from Dreyer’s
The most famous flavor is Java Chip.
Starbucks ultimately discontinued its ice cream in 2013 as it didn’t fit well with its business model.
Your grandma might remember her childhood with a freezer full of Good Humor’s Toasted Almond ice cream bars.
It was a kid’s favorite ice cream truck treat for over 60 years.
It was beloved for its almond core encased in vanilla ice cream and coated with crunchy almond-flavored bits.
According to Good Humor, the product was discontinued in 2022 as ice cream truck sales started to plummet during theCOVID-19 era.
Jell-O Pudding Pops were a popular frozen dessert in the 1980s.
They were so popular that they generated $300 million in annual sales at their peak.
However, they were expensive to produce, and they were axed due to lack of profitability.
Nothing mixes better than alcohol and ice cream, so Häagen-Dazs introduced a famous Baileys Irish Cream flavored ice cream in recent years.
A lot of people loved the concept. However, in 2018, Häagen-Dazs discontinued this flavor, citing that it wasn’t as successful as anticipated.
Finally, we have one more Häagen-Dazs flavor for you. The Macadamia Brittle.
The flavor combined vanilla ice cream with crunchy macadamia nut brittle. People loved it for its rich texture and nutty taste.
It was discontinued in 2015 due to sourcing enough macadamia nuts. You can blame the largest producer of the nuts, South Africa, for that.
