A sunflower seed butter base is the star of three new Ben & Jerry’s non-dairy frozen dessert pints. Ben & Jerry’s is the first national brand to offer sunflower butter pints to the public, according to the company.

The new sunflower butter pints are certified vegan, Non-GMO Project verified and Fair Trade and come in three flavors: “Milk” & Cookies, Crème Brulee Cookie and Mint Chocolate Cookie.

The “Milk” & Cookies variety is a vanilla non-dairy frozen dessert with chocolate chip cookies, chocolate sandwich cookies and chocolate cookie swirls. Each 2/3-cup serving contains 350 calories, 29 grams of sugar and 3 grams of protein.

The Crème Brulee Cookie flavor features burnt caramel frozen dessert with brown sugar cookies and salted caramel swirls. Each 2/3-cup serving contains 310 calories, 28 grams of sugar and 2 grams of protein.

The Mint Chocolate Cookie variety is a mint frozen dessert with chocolate sandwich cookies. Each 2/3-cup serving contains 300 calories, 27 grams of sugar and 2 grams of protein.

“Plant-based eating is one of the biggest trends in the world, and ice cream lovers everywhere have shouted for non-dairy/vegan options that rise to the levels of Ben & Jerry’s euphoric awesomeness,” said Matthew McCarthy, chief executive officer of Ben & Jerry’s. “I am over-the-moon excited that our flavor gurus have churned out something funky and chunky that is nothing short of spectacular.”

Ben & Jerry’s sunflower butter pints join the brand’s 12 other non-dairy frozen desserts, which feature an almond milk base. The new flavors are available in grocery stores nationwide for a suggested retail price of $4.48-$5.99.
