Ben & Jerry’s just launched their first new flavor of the year (hold for applause) and it’s a good one. We got the chance to try the newest addition to the lineup — here’s what we thought.
The Vermont-based Ice Cream Company launched 2023 with what is expected be a fan favorite. Oatmeal Dream Pie. The new offering follows Oatmeal Cookie Chun, which was discontinued after eight years. The new flavor is vegan and gluten-free. This pint is another example of the company’s over-the-top mix ins.

The latest non-dairy release of the oatmeal cream pie is made with marshmallow swirls and gluten free oatmeal cookies. Partake — a B Corp that sells allergy-friendly cookies and baking mixes that are certified gluten-free, non-GMO, vegan, and free of the top nine allergens (wheat, tree nuts, peanuts, milk, eggs, soy, fish, sesame, and shellfish). The company has partnered with several organizations to offer access to food and education as well as advocacy.
“The chance to work with Ben & Jerry’s is a … dream come true,” said Denise Woodard, founder and CEO of Partake. “We are thrilled to join them in freezers across America by providing our one-of-a-kind oatmeal cookies.”

“When our team of Flavor Gurus brainstorm the creation of any new flavor, we have all Ben & Jerry’s fans in mind, including those with or without food restrictions and allergies,” said Ben & Jerry’s Flavor Guru, Chris Rivard. “We wanted to bring a nostalgic sweet treat to life that everyone would enjoy – partnering with Partake to bring this non-dairy and gluten-free option to Ben & Jerry’s fans everywhere was an oatmeal dream come true!”
