Baskin-Robbins Cookie Monster Ice Cream


[New for 2025] When I bought this next flavor, I bought it because it was blue, not because I was sure it was new. I just wanted it, plain and simple. I'm glad I did, because it's now my favorite of the at home flavors.

News: Baskin-Robbins Oreo Monkey Business


[New for Sept 2024] Man that is one tasty looking scoop of ice cream!

I know banana ice cream isn't really my thing, but I'd be tempted to try this one if I could. If anyone out there has had it or is going to get it, let the rest of us know how it is!

Baskin-Robbins Milkshakes


Ok, let's start with the bad news: no more BR reviews for awhile since the insiders program has been suspended. Man, I'm going to miss those happy boxes arriving every month!

With that in mind, maybe it was fitting that we got the world's saddest drive thru person on our way home from Jersey yesterday. I asked for milkshakes and you could just hear the sadness in their voice. The fact that they didn't have any simple options (outside vanilla) meant that the sad person had to rattle a long list of long flavor names. In the end, we wound up going with...

Baskin-Robbins Gingerbread House Ice Cream


[New for Dec 2021] It seems like just yesterday I was trying the November flavor of the month (I still have some left), and here we are in December already. I 've been digging the level of creativity in the packaging and flavors this year so let's dive in to...

Baskin-Robbins Snickerdoodle Chai Ice Cream


[New for Nov 2021] Recently I've been asking people if their 2021 has been any better than 2020, and in general, everyone seems to agree that 2021 isn't any better. Yes somethings are better, but then there seems to be match of things that are worse. That said, one of the bright spots has been these cool Baskin-Robbins packages that have been arriving at the beginning of the month. I dig what the marketing team is doing here and I can't wait to try....

News: Baskin-Robbins Trick Oreo Treat is back!


The return of Baskin-Robbins Trick Oreo Treat was announced on Sept 27th. I'm not sure how long it was gone, but the last time I had it was back in 2016 (review here).

Baskin-Robbins Hidden Treasure Ice Cream


[New for August 2021] More Baskin-Robbins? Oh yeah. Nothing like receiving back to back shipments of free ice cream. Good times!

Baskin-Robbins Beach Day Ice Cream


[New for July 2021, returned July 2024] A few weeks ago, the PR firm for Baskin-Robbins asked me if I would be interested in joining their Flavor Insiders program. The program sends you a free pint of the upcoming flavor of the month. My answer was an immediate "YES!". I've had a lot of fun going to Baskin-Robbins over the years but it's not always the easiest place for me to get to.

Baskin Robbins Oreo 'n Caramel Ice Cream


[New for April 2019] Hey there, I'm back again! I can't say I was heartbroken to be away from Baskin for a year, but it is nice to be so close again, especially with the outdoor seating and the warmer months approaching. As long as my particular B-R can keep the new flavors in stock, we should be all set. Anyway, let's take a dive in to the new...

Baskin-Robbins Blueberry Muffin Ice Cream


[New for March 2019] Ok, let me just say..... Ooops. In the rush of new freezer aisle stuff (and the craziness of a new job), I forgot to post about my return to Baskin-Robbins! That's right, my new job has put me back in the middle of many tasty things... actually, it's even easier to get to B-R now, so let's have it. [To make it up to you, I'll post the April flavor tomorrow]

Baskin-Robbins & Dunkin Donuts Team Up


[New for 2018] Alright, I mentioned the Dunkin Donuts - Baskin-Robbins flavor collaboration in the 2018 flavor guide, but I decided to give one of the flavors a try when they were massively on sale last week. The two things to remember here are: 1) Baskin is owned by Dunkin and 2) Baskin at home isn't as high a quality as their scoop shop stuff. (I'm sure they don't appreciate me saying that but it's the truth. Did you really expect the same quality for 1/2 the cost? hehehe)

Baskin Robbins Candy Bar Mashup Ice Cream


[New for Oct 2017] Ok, I'm a little hurt. I've been gone for almost a week and I'm not sure anyone really noticed. It's ok and I do understand. I'm sure there were still plenty of ice cream pictures in your instagram feed while I was sick. It's the quiet time of year anyway. All we really have to keep us going until 2018 is monthly specials from whoever will serve them up.

Baskin-Robbins Belgian Waffle Ice Cream


[Sept 2017] There's a flavor of the month with "Waffle" in the name? Just let me check the calendar, yup, it's clear now. To the lunchmobile!

Baskin-Robbins Made with Snickers ice cream and Baskin-Robbins Made with Reese's ice cream


Dear Baskin-Robbins, why is it so hard to have the flavor of the month in stock? You don't have it at the beginning of the month*. You don't have it at the end of the month. This is why I don't do more Baskin-Robbins reviews. That said, there was someone waiting at the counter for me when I walked in, so rather than sneaking out like I've done on a few other occasions, I decided to ordered a double scoop so I could try two more of their "Made with" flavors.

Baskin-Robbins Reese's 3-Pointer Ice Cream


[New for March 2017] Time to try a flavor that sounds pretty amazing. I'm in that group that adores the combination of chocolate and peanut butter, especially when Reese's is in the mix, so it's hard not to set my expectations very high for this one. Let's dig in to a double scoop of...

Baskin-Robbins Trick OREO Treat Ice Cream


I went to Baskin-Robbins fully intending to try their new Trick OREO Treat Dark ice cream today but as (somewhat) expected, they didn't have it in yet. So, to be a thorough reviewer, let's try the original version first so I have something to compare the dark version to next week.

Baskin-Robbins OREO Milk 'n Cereal Ice Cream


[New for Aug 2016] I'm starting to think that when I order a single scoop at Baskin-Robbins ($2.98), I have better luck than when I order a double. Today's case in point:

Baskin-Robbins at Home Ice Cream Giveaway


Several months ago, I was talking with Boardwalk Frozen Treats about their production of the Baskin-Robbins at home flavors that you can find in your local freezer aisle. In particular, I was having trouble tracking down a good supply of pints to dig in to. Long story short, I learned that they are coming out with four new flavors for 2016 and they gave me a bunch of coupons to try them.


The new ice cream flavors are Salted Caramel, Mom's Makin' Cookies (the in store version is excellent), Peanut Butter Cup, and Pistachio Almond.

Now the thing is, I still can't find any of their pints in my area now, so I've decided to share my coupons with all of you. I just have one request. I really want people to try this (and hopefully check back in with their thoughts), so please verify that you have access to this product before you enter the giveaway. These coupons are not for in store quarts you find at Baskin-Robbins scoop shops, these are only for the freezer aisle pints you find in the grocery store (store locator here). (The coupons will work on any flavor, not just the new ones)

To enter, simply enter your email address in the comments section for this post. Since comments are moderated, no one will see your email address except me. Once the contest is over and I've picked a few winners, I will send you an email to request your mailing address.

Disclaimer: your information will not be shared with Baskin-Robbins, Boardwalk Frozen Treats or anyone else. I am not responsible for lost mail or freezer burned pints. I have twelve coupons but haven't decided how many coupons I will send to each winner (but it will be at least two). Let's call the contest deadline August 16th at 10 PM EST (aka you have two weeks to enter). Mailing addresses in the United States of America only and remember, if you don't enter your email address, I can't contact you and let you know that you've won.

Update: Congrats to our winners Mary, Carlos, Megan, Matt, Joshua and Kimberly!

Baskin-Robbins OREO Birthday Cake Ice Cream


[New for July 2016] Marvo pointed out that last time I recommended the flavor of the month, it was at the end of the month, but not this time. It's Friday and your weekend mission is to try...

Baskin-Robbins Summer Breeze Cheesecake Ice Cream


*Note: This flavor was only listed in Canada last month but is now on both the U.S. and Canadian versions of the Baskin-Robbins website. We have reports that the U.S. does have it, but please call your store ahead of time to verify that they have it in stock.

Jeffrey Scott aka JunkFoodJeff here with another guest review from Canada, eh? This time I've been asked to review the new Baskin-Robbins Summer Breeze Cheesecake flavor, which is currently only available in Canada for a limited time*
