Ice cream giant Ben & Jerry’s is celebrating its 30th birthday this year. To mark the event, the company known for its numerous and creatively named flavors has launched a special anniversary ice cream — Cake Batter.
Trouble is, the company has released so many (and some might say so many unusual) flavors over the years, the folks who work there can’t come up with a tally. They think Cake Batter is No. 280. Or maybe No. 300.
Whatever its number, Cake Batter is a creamy mix of vanilla ice cream swirled with yellow cake batter and chocolate frosting.
