Häagen-Dazs' unveils limited edition festive flavours

Häagen-Dazs ice cream has unveiled its latest Limited Edition Festive Collection, designed to cater to shoppers looking for the perfect, seasonal treat. The collection is launching in grocery throughout October, helping retailers tap into the "big night in" occasion, which is expected to ramp up across the month with longer evenings and increased at-home entertaining.

The range features two indulgent SKUs: the return of fan-favourite Red Velvet Cheesecake, and new Mint Chocolate, a luxurious version of a much-loved classic. The collection is well positioned to meet demand for familiar tastes: two thirds of UK adults say they look for high-quality ice cream in well-known and classic flavours , with nostalgic and premium ice cream driving category growth.


Red Velvet Cheesecake (460ml, RRP from £5.40)
Red Velvet Cheesecake combines two beloved desserts – the luxurious taste of red velvet cake with the creamy tang of cheesecake. The fresh cream cheese ice cream, enriched with thick red velvet cocoa swirls and cakey crumble pieces, offers a decadent experience that consumers will find perfect for concluding any festive dinner.

Mint Chocolate

Mint Chocolate (460ml, RRP from £5.40)
Tapping into festive nostalgia, Häagen-Dazs introduces Mint Chocolate, a flavour that encapsulates the essence of winter. The combination of refreshing mint and rich chocolate is elevated by adding crunchy chocolate pieces and swirls of chocolate mint sauce, transforming a household favourite into a luxurious dessert experience. This limited edition promises to appeal to consumers looking for a classic flavour with a premium twist.

"Every year we delight in treating lovers of Häagen-Dazs to seasonal scoops that add a bit of sparkle to the festive period," said Nicole Whelan, Head of Brand at Häagen-Dazs UK. "Our 2024 collection has been carefully curated to tap into demand for indulgent yet classic flavours and is therefore perfectly placed to help our retailer partners drive sales.

“With the exclusivity of a seasonal launch combined with our signature quality, unparalleled taste and stunning shelf appeal, we’re confident the flavours will be a feature in festive baskets throughout the limited run.”

The Häagen-Dazs Festive Collection will be available across key grocery accounts nationally and supported with in-store activity to drive engagement across the season. A social media campaign will also run in unison to maximise shopper visibility and sales potential for retailers.
