When I was a child, I thought When I’m grown up, I eat ice cream for dinner every day and nobody will stop me. I dreamed of bubble rubber rubber shovels with rainbow sprinkles, chocolate sauce, mini-m & ms and whipped cream. A girl can dream.
My dream came true! As an adult, it is a standard policy to keep a pint ice in my freezer. I eat it directly from the container whenever I want. In addition, I cannot imagine a dessert that is not made better with a ball of ice cream – grilled peaches, strawberry spoon cakes, all cobblestones that they call it.
You can certainly say that my taste has grown and my starting point is vanilla ice cream. Go ahead, call me “vanilla” – I’ll take it as a compliment! Vanilla ice cream is luxurious, subtle and delicious. There is no frozen treat so reliable.
Since I buy ice cream so often, I tend to grab what is for sale. But should I? To find out, I asked professionally trained bakers and food editors to name their favorite brand of vanilla ice cream. They all gave me the same answer.

The best vanilla ice cream, according to Probaker and food editor
Laurel describes great vanilla ice cream as a “creamy with real vanilla taste”. It sounds simple, but surprising, not all vanilla ice cream are the same. The unanimous coordination for the best vanilla ice cream is Ben & Jerry. (According to Alexa Harrison, PR manager at Ben & Jerry’s, it is so popular that it sells the only smooth taste-without mixtures in a pint container.)
Laurel says: “Ben & Jerry’s vanilla is rich, creamy and has the vanilla taste that I am looking for – next to a dessert, in a sundae or everyone.” (Try a ball on Laurel’s peach and raspberry -Pandowdy!)
Genevieve, which tastes over 10 brands of vanilla ice cream Serious foodsays: “Many vanilla ice cream have an artificial aftertaste, but Ben & Jerry’s taste like dairy products that were infused with real vanilla. It is the smoothest and creamiest from all the brands that I tried. There is also no unpleasant stretchy texture that some ice cream due to the manufacturers of lack and gums manufacturers.
“I am usually none for vanilla ice cream – I prefer strawberry or something with texture like Keksteig – but Ben & Jerry’s is one that I would eat happy night after night,” she adds.
Megan says: “Ben & Jerry’s vanilla ice cream is my brand. I love it how creamy it is and how it has a recognizable but not false vanilla taste.”
Courtney, who is lactose-intolerant, supports Ben & Jerry’s Vanilla Base formulated for those who want a milk-free alternative. “I was really impressed … it is based on oat base, but in taste neutral, which is difficult to find in non-milk ice cream and has a shocking creamy mouthfeel without being too rich.” Ben & Jerry’s does not wear a Vanilla-Nur vegan ice cream, but uses the base for several Aromas with mix-ins.
I recently learned that Ben & Jerry’s employees can take three pints of ice cream home every day. I don’t know how I would do work. My daily checklist would cause soaking in the sun, touching grass and eating a pint ice. A girl can dream.
