SUMMARY: This morning, Bluebell representative Emanuel Williams introduced a new ice cream flavor to celebrate National Ice Cream Month in July—Cookies and Cream Cheesecake. This rich cheesecake ice cream contains chocolate cookie cheesecake pieces and chocolate cream cookies. Williams, who enjoys ice cream regularly, shared that the decision to blend cookies and cream with cheesecake was due to the popularity of both flavors; cookies and cream is Bluebell’s second best-seller. The new flavor is available in half-gallons and pints at major supermarkets around Tupelo. Williams encouraged customers to ask store personnel if they can’t find it, as it sells out quickly.
