Snack Cake-Inspired Ice Creams

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

Little Debbie Ice Cream Bars Come in Four Varieties

Little Debbie is known for its snack cakes, but is now slated to be known for its frozen novelties thanks to the Little Debbie Ice Cream Bars that have been created in collaboration with Hudsonville Ice cream. The product range consists of four options for consumers to choose from including Birthday Cake, Strawberry Shortcake Rolls, Nutty Bars and Star Crunch. The treats are each inspired by some of Little Debbie's most popular snack cakes and are thus expected to be a must-try amongst avid fans of the brand.

The Little Debbie Ice Cream Bars are headed to retailers just in time for the seasonal shift to spring and summer, and come with four servings in each box for consumers to keep on hand in their freezer.
