[New for Early 2026] Hannaford has been crushing the 2026 ice cream season by carrying lots of the new stuff. Among the many things I saw all the way back in mid February were these faux pints of....

Nutella Ice Cream and Kinder Bueno FDD
Describing Nutella ice cream as "Ice Cream with Nutella" is both very amusing and also kind of frustrating. Tell me what the ice cream tastes like! Ok, the press release says "the unmistakable taste of Nutella with swirls of Nutella", so I'm thinking they both taste like Nutella.
Kinder Bueno is hazelnut flavored frozen dairy dessert with nutty filling and cookie crunch. That does sound found despite being frozen dairy dessert.
Nutella is 330 cals per 2/3 cup serving and Kinder Bueno is 340 cals, so very close despite one being frozen dairy dessert and one being ice cream.
These flavors don't just come in faux pints either....

I was at Price Chopper on Wednesday when I saw the kinder bueno cones. The box says they are hazelnut flavored frozen dairy dessert with nutty core and topping in a sugar cone. 220 calories per 3.04 fluid oz cone.
Now I probably won't be trying any of these any time soon, but a buddy of mine did try the kinder bueno "pint" and said "it's heavy on the hazelnuts".
Will you try these or have you tried them? As always, feel free to leave a comment!
Note: These are made by Wells (the Blue Bunny people) because Wells, Kinder, and Nutella are all owned by Ferrero these days.
