Lights! Caramel! Action! Ben & Jerry's Newest Flavor Directed By Award-Winning Filmmaker Ava DuVernay
Ben & Jerry's is lifting the curtain on its newest production – a delicious partnership with Ava DuVernay. Yes, "Queen Sugar" is no longer simply a show by Ava DuVernay, it may be a moniker befitting of the award-winning director, filmmaker and TV producer herself. DuVernay is the first African-American woman to be nominated for an Academy Award as a director in any feature category.
Ben & Jerry's proudly presents "Lights! Caramel! Action! directed by Ava DuVernay," featuring an ensemble cast of vanilla ice cream with salted caramel swirls, graham cracker swirls and gobs of chocolate chip cookie dough. The flavor, in both ice cream and almond milk based non-dairy versions, will begin shipping across the country in January. Quite a foodie feature, for a first foray into flavor-hood, fully directed by Ava who personally curated the flavor creation with the Ben & Jerry's Flavor Gurus.
