The Ben & Jerry’s Holiday Flavor Giving Guide
Don’t look now, but the holidays are coming faster than you can say “Chocolate Dipped Waffle Cone.” It’s a great time for getting gifts, but it’s even better to give them. Especially when you’re handing out some of Vermont’s finest!
You can give any Ben & Jerry’s flavor to your family and friends and they’ll thank you and love you forever, but if you really want to make an impression, here are some suggestions to find the flavor that suits them best.

Item number 1
The Sweetheart
Your heart skips a beat when you think of your darling. So smart. So funny. So perfect for you in every way. But how do you showcase the depth of your emotions? Chocolate Fudge Brownie, that’s how. It’s brownie sweetness wrapped in chocolate amazingness. Just like your love.

Item number 2
Your Favorite
Whether it’s your spouse, your bestie, or the delivery guy from that 24-hour ramen shop downtown, there’s one person who rises above the rest. Let them know how important they are with the can’t-be-beat combination of fudgy brownie chunks and gobs of chocolate chip cookie dough found in Half Baked.

Item number 3
The Trendsetters
They don’t follow what’s popular or worry what Steve down the block is wearing to Deena’s party. They make their own rules, blaze their own paths and laugh in the face of convention. That’s why you should give them a pint of our Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough, the first-of-its-kind flavor that turned the ice cream world upside down when it debuted in the mid-80s.

Item number 4
The Dancers
These are the friends, family or coworkers whose shoulders move when they hear a good groove. They become one with the rhythm and don’t care who’s watching. Share some Phish Food so they can get down with the fudge fish and gooey marshmallow swirls.
-
Item number 5
The Neighborhood Gossip
Nothing happens without this person finding out. You don’t know how she gets her information, but her sources are as reliable as the thick caramel swirls of our Triple Caramel Chunk. So invite her over, share a scoop and get ready to hear everything that happened while you were visiting family for the holidays.

Item number 6
Mom & Dad
They’re the most dependable people you know, and have been a part of your life for as long as you can remember. Sound like any iconic flavors you know? Yup! Give the 'rents some Cherry Garcia, and turn their holidays into a fudge-flaked festival to remember.
-
Item number 7
The Energetic Nephew
He bounces around the house and can’t sit still during the holiday meal. Grandpa’s stories don’t hold his attention. Neither does Uncle Joe’s action figure collection. The only thing that seems to calm him down is peanut butter. That’s why you give him some Peanut Butter Cup, and accept the family’s thanks for adding some quiet to the house.

Item number 8
Your Favorite Teacher
She always smiles, never gives homework over the weekend, and her lesson plans keep you interested and push you to learn. She’s giving you the power to control your destiny, so hand over some That’s My Jam™ and let her choose her ice cream destiny—chocolate and raspberry ice creams by themselves, or mixed with the raspberry core?
-
Item number 9
The World Traveler
Holidays are the only time you see him, because he spends the rest of the year hopping from continent to island to mountain to jungle. His social feeds are full of epic selfies and jaw-dropping landscapes. He’s always talking about his next adventure, so give him one to remember with some Boom Chocolatta™. That cookie core will be a trip he won’t soon forget!
