Blue Bell’s pecan pie ice cream available Sept. 4 for a limited time

ALEXANDRIA, La. (WNTZ)- Blue Bell Creameries is serving up a new flavor that combines two Southern favorites – ice cream and pecan pie.

The company announced Thursday the release of Classic Pecan Pie Ice Cream, which hits store shelves Sept. 4. The limited-time flavor features brown sugar ice cream blended with roasted pecans, flaky pie crust pieces, and a swirl of pecan pie filling.

“Our new flavor combines your favorite ice cream with everything you enjoy in a pecan pie,” said John Neal Robinson, general sales manager for Blue Bell. “Pecans, pie crust pieces, and yes, even a pecan pie filling swirl, all surrounded by a brown sugar ice cream – did we miss anything?”

Blue Bell said the new offering pays homage to pecan pie, the official state pie of Texas, where the company is headquartered. Classic Pecan Pie Ice Cream is available in both half-gallon and pint sizes.

The brand also recently brought back Homemade in the Shade Ice Cream after a 10-year hiatus. That flavor blends Blue Bell’s Homemade Vanilla with a swirl of chocolate fudge sauce and is also sold in pint and half-gallon sizes.
