I don’t know who is doing the marketing or who has the inside “scoop” on this popular big box store, but obviously they have the connections. First, it exclusively sold several flavors of ice cream based on one of the most popular television series to date. Seven Stranger Things ice cream flavors featuring a game about the popular hangout Scoops Ahoy Ice Cream Parlor in the now-destroyed mall have hit the shelves.
Now it’s Little Debbie’s turn to cash in again, this time with exclusivity on three popular ice cream flavors that you can only find at this same big box store and nowhere else.
According to All recipes, this decadent snack giant has mixed pieces of its seasonal golden Christmas tree cakes, green sprinkles and red frosting into a vanilla ice cream called Christmas Tree Cakes. And now, prepare for the return of the apparent fan favorite with two more all-new holiday-themed Little Debbie ice cream flavors, all on Walmart shelves.
There is something comforting and homey about Little Debbie snacks, as they have been part of the fabric of American desserts since the Great Depression starting in 1928, according to McKee Foods which bills itself as America’s largest family-owned bakery.
I love Little Debbie and Nutty Buddy Oatmeal Cream Pies, but I’ve never had Little Debbie ice cream. According to All recipesHudsonville Ice Cream is once again their partner for the 2023 holiday season.
Cherry Cordials is a new flavor according to All recipes using the popular Little Debbie holiday snack between two soft, chocolate-covered vanilla cookies in ice cream. The other new flavor is a chocolate-based Christmas tree cake ice cream called, aptly, Chocolate Christmas Tree Cakes. YUM.
