Carnival, Van Leeuwen Unveil Sunscreen-Flavored Ice Cream

Carnival Cruise Line and Van Leeuwen Ice Cream have collaborated to create a unique sunscreen-flavored ice cream as part of a marketing campaign to combat the "End-of-Summer Scaries." The flavor, described as a blend of coconut cream, cocoa butter, vanilla extract, and sea salt, evokes the scent and taste of summer without containing any actual SPF. While not currently available for purchase, the companies are gauging public interest through social media, with plans for a limited release if demand is high. The ice cream aims to capture the essence of a tropical vacation and summer vibes, with packaging that reflects Carnival's branding. This innovative flavor has generated significant buzz online, drawing thousands of views and enthusiastic reactions from fans. Van Leeuwen, known for pushing flavor boundaries, continues to expand its presence with multiple locations across the U.S.
