Word up, Ice Cream Lovers!  I’m a little late in announcing this, but I just got wind of  Ben & Jerry’s new flavor: Fair Trade Chocolate Macademia Nut.

This new flavor was launched in Feb 2009 and is described as “a delicate mix of Fairtrade chocolate and vanilla ice cream, with a dairyingly delicious heap of chunky chocolate covered Macadamia nuts.”

And just so you don’t feel like you’re the only one who is “nuts” about ice cream, check out what Geoff Wannacot carved out of macadamias!!

Geoff Wannacot, from Dorchester Dorset, an expert in miniature carving,  has carved a Ben and a Jerry, a tub, an ice cream cone and a cow with the Macadamia Nuts in celebrating of Ben & Jerry’s new Fair Trade Chocolate Macadamia flavor! Geoff spent a total of 38 hours creating all five sculptures in celebration of the new flavor which are just half an inch high, the Ben and Jerry’s heads were the most complex and each took around 10 hours for Geoff to carve.

It’s pretty awesome that Ben & Jerry’s decided to not only launch this in the UK, but also worldwide all at the same time! So whether you’re in the UK or the good ole USA, you should definitely head to your favorite Ben & Jerry’s supplier and seek out this yummy new flavor!
