One of the top 5 best selling ice cream- Cookies and Cream
3/6/2009 1:44:26 PM

Cookies and Cream (or Cookies 'n Cream) is a popular flavoring in foods, including ice creams, milkshakes, and confectionery.

It is typically a flavor infused into desserts using crushed chocolate cookies sandwiching a cream filling. The flavor is widely associated with the Oreo cookie, a kind of cookie sandwich with a sweet, white cream filling commonly used in milkshakes and other frozen desserts such as Blizzards, pies, etc.

There is some debate as to who first invented and marketed Cookies 'n Cream ice cream.

  • John Harrison, the official taster for Dreyer's/Edy's Ice Cream, claims he invented it first for the company in 1982.
  • Blue Bell Creameries claim they first mass-produced the flavor two years earlier in 1980 after an employee tasted it in Houston ice cream parlor the year before; however, they do state "Blue Bell makes no claim to have invented it but certainly pioneered the flavor." Blue Bell Creameries is reported to have trademarked the name "Cookies 'n Cream" in 1978.
  • South Dakota State University claims the flavor was invented at the university's Dairy Plant.
  • Another claimant is Steve Herrell of Massachusetts' Herrell's Ice Cream.

In any case, in 1983, Cookies 'n Cream became one of the top five best-selling flavors of ice cream.  mmmmmmm Yummy :). You feel the same??
