New ice cream flavour to raise funds for Unicef’s #CookForSyria
Howard Lake | 30 June 2017 | News
Jude’s, the family ice cream company, has created Honey & Toasted Almond flavour ice cream and is donating £1 from the sacle of each tub to Unicef UK as part of its #CookForSyria campaign.
The new flavour was inspired by the flavours of Syria, and uses British honey and toasted almond flakes for a smooth nutty scoop.
Chow Mezger, MD and son of founder Theo Mezger and his wife Jude (hence the company name) said: “We are delighted to launch this delicious Syrian inspired flavour in collaboration with #CookForSyria. At Jude’s we’re committed to supporting children and young people through our charitable giving and we’re proud to support #CookForSyria.”
Jude’s Honey & Toasted Almond is available from Ocado from July, together with Sainsbury’s, Waitrose and other retailers. The 500ml tub has a RRP of £4.50.
Hampshire-based Jude’s uses milk from a herd of 220 Holstein crossed with Friesian cattle at Matterly Farm.
