Ben & Jerry’s Free Cone Day to Benefit WSLR – This Tuesday

Tuesday, April 29th from 12pm-8pm, the Ben & Jerry’s on St. Armands Circle will be giving away FREE ICE CREAM! All tips/donations collected that day will go to benefit WSLR-LP 96.5 Sarasota’s Community Radio Station. Come out and show your support for community radio.

As Ben & Jerry’s celebrates its 30th anniversary across the globe, the socially-minded ice cream maker, with the fun and funky flavors, asks what better way to share the love? They’re giving it away.

You can try one of your old favorites such as the legend-dairy classic Cherry Garcia, Phish Food or Chocolate Fudge Brownie. However, if you’re looking for a little something new to tickle your ice cream funny bone the company is introducing a few brand new flavors to bring joy to your belly and soul.

  • Coconut Seven Layer Bar — What can we say, except we know you’ll go coconuts for our latest and greatest flavor, based on the popular dessert: coconut ice cream with coconut & fudge flakes, walnuts & swirls of graham cracker & butterscotch. This is a treat solely for our Scoop Shop fans, as it is the only place in the world that you can get this flavor!
  • Imagine Whirled Peace™ — Continuing in a long lineage of rock and roll flavors, we’re honored to introduce Imagine Whirled Peace. John Lennon imagined a world without war, and asked us all to “Give Peace a Chance.” We’re proud to partner with Peace One Day to act globally and take one step closer to making our planet one of peace and love.
  • ONE Cheesecake Brownie™ — This top-testing new flavor is a decadent cheesecake ice cream with cheesecake brownie chunks. The amazing thing is the taste is only the half of it! We’re partnering with ONE.org to “make poverty history.” To find out all the campaign info, visit ONE.org/benjerry.
  • Cake Batter — This flavor combination takes the cake! Yellow cake batter ice cream with a chocolate frosting swirl. The perfect flavor to help blow out Ben & Jerry’s 30 candles!

Not only is Free Cone Day a chance to get a free scoop of ice cream, it is also considered to be quite a party. There’s always great fun and surprises at your neighborhood Scoop Shop with local celebrities as guest scoopers, worthwhile social mission partners like 96.5 WSLR Low Power FM Community Radio and ONE.ORG, music and other entertainment happening throughout the day so make sure you make it down to enjoy all of the Free Cone Day fun.
