About Us

Alternative Takeaway is a Italian takeaway in Cockermouth. Why don't you try our BBQ Chicken Pizza or Haagen Dazs Ice Cream 500ml?

Chocolate ice cream with brownie pieces (12%). Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Fudge Brownie ice cream is a fudge-tastic phenomenon brimming with gooey chunks of brownie goodness mixed into dark and rich chocolate ice cream. Sounds like a dream. At first, that's all it was. Long ago, we were making brownie ice cream sandwiches for sale in grocery stores. Sometimes there would be broken pieces in the brownie delivery, and we'd nab them for flavour experiments. What would brownie pieces taste like in chocolate ice cream? Pretty good, it turns out! That original experimental flavour eventually became the legendary ice cream concoction known as Chocolate Fudge Brownie. Meanwhile, Ben Cohen had met Bernie Glassman, the founder of Greyston Bakery, a Yonkers, New York, USA-based company with a mission to end poverty and give back to the community. Equally important, their brownies were just so darn good that after sampling some, Ben handwrote a note asking for two truckloads of brownie pieces. While we knew Greyston would be the ideal supplier for turning Chocolate Fudge Brownie into a flavour sold by the tub, getting the brownies to cooperate wasn't easy. After about 25 batches of brownies and six months of work, the flavour finally debuted in 1991, and it's been a hit frozen dessert ever since. We work with Fairtrade certified producers for cocoa, sugar and vanilla, and our Caring Dairy farmers produce the milk and cream sustainably. Greyston Bakery, one of the largest social enterprises in the USA, continues to provide the brownies for this and all of our flavours. All of Ben & Jerry's ice cream is made with free-range eggs, and we use responsibly sourced packaging. If you can't get enough of our ice cream, why not try our other flavours? We've got Netflix & Chilll'd ice cream with sweet & salty pretzel swirls & brownie pieces or Cookie Dough with vanilla ice cream and chunks of chocolate chip cookie dough. There are many more flavours of our ice cream tubs so give them all a try!

Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream Tub Cookie Dough 465ml

Vanilla ice cream with chunks of chocolate chip cookie dough (16%) and chocolatey chunks (1.5%). Big delicious chunks of chocolate-chip cookie dough surrounded by creamy vanilla ice cream. It seems like such a no-brainer today, but in 1984 it was revolutionary. The Ben & Jerry's Cookie Dough ice cream tub you know and love started with a simple suggestion: What if you put chunks of chocolate-chip cookie dough into vanilla ice cream? That was the fantastic anonymous idea submitted way back in the early days of our first Burlington, Vermont, USA, Scoop Shop. We used to have a bulletin board where people could suggest new flavours for Jerry & Ben to make — and this idea stood out. The folks at the Scoop Shop immediately went to work mixing up a batch of chocolate chip cookie dough. It was an instant hit. Initially, the flavour was only available at the Scoop Shop. When we decided to sell it in tubs as a frozen dessert, we had to figure out how to get that familiar cookie-dough taste, consistency and texture at ice cream temperatures. We teamed up with local producer Rhino Foods and, over an incredible six-year journey, we perfected the cookie dough found in our tubs today. In 1991, Ben & Jerry's Chocolate Chip Cookie Dough ice cream tubs began appearing in freezer aisles everywhere. It has remained one of our most popular and beloved flavours ever since! We work with Fairtrade certified producers for cocoa, sugar and vanilla, and our caring dairy farmers produce the milk and cream in this tub sustainably. All of our ice cream is made with free-range eggs, and we use responsibly sourced packaging.

Ben & Jerry's Caramel Chew-Chew Ice Cream 465 ml

Caramel (2.5%) ice cream with a caramel swirl (9%) and chocolatey covered caramel chunks (9%). Caramel ice cream frozen dessert with a caramel swirl and chocolatey covered caramel chunks. And all because chocolate and caramel were meant to be together. And you were meant to grab a spoon and enjoy them. Calling all caramel lovers! Fulfilling all your caramel cravings, with caramel ice cream, caramel-filled chocolatey cups and a caramel swirl to boot, Ben & Jerry's Caramel Chew-Chew ice cream takes you to a whole new level of rich, caramel euphoria. Hard as this may be to believe, we've heard that some of you may be operating at a caramel deficit. Sounds crazy, but be honest: Are most of your days caramel-free? Anecdotal evidence suggests that there is a direct correlation between caramel and happiness (or at least that certainly seems to be the case among our flavour gurus), so what are you waiting for? If a caramel kick is what you're craving, then chew chew-choose this tub of ice cream. On the other hand, if you've already got your caramel food group covered, the news is still good: You can't possibly have too much. The cocoa, sugar and vanilla in our ice cream is all Fairtrade certified. Caring Dairy farmers are responsible for the milk and cream in this tub. We wouldn't think of using anything but free-range eggs. Oh, and our packaging is always responsibly sourced. If you can't get enough of our ice cream, why not try our other flavours? We've got Netflix & Chilll'd ice cream with sweet & salty pretzel swirls & brownie pieces or Cookie Dough with vanilla ice cream and chunks of chocolate chip cookie dough.

Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream Strawberry Cheesecake 465 ML

Strawberry cheesecake ice cream with sweetened strawberry pieces and a cookie swirl (9%). This Ben & Jerry's frozen dessert includes strawberry cheesecake ice cream with strawberries and a cookie swirl. If you can think of a more strawberrily perfect flavour combination, let us know because we think this is tough to beat.
Think of your favourite creamy cheesecake, topped with sweet fruit (but not too sweet), backed by a light crust. Now, that's a heavenly dessert. And guess what? For strawberry cheesecake lovers who've always wanted to have their cheesecake and scoop it, too, we've created a flavour jam-packed with strawberry cheesecake-greatness and a fantastic cookie swirl. It's everything you love about cheesecake and everything you love about Ben & Jerry's ice cream, combined.
Strawberry Cheesecake routinely ranks among our top 10 flavours every year. Could it be the cookie swirl? That crunch is indeed the ideal complement to all that creamy ice cream. Or is it the strawberries? Bursting with fruity goodness, they somehow seem even more delicious in the middle of all that ice cream. Truth is, everybody probably has their reason for loving Strawberry Cheesecake. And they're all exactly right.
The cocoa, sugar, and vanilla in Ben & Jerry's ice cream comes from Fairtrade certified producers. Caring Dairy farmers supply us with all the milk and cream in our tubs. We only use cage-free eggs. And our packaging is always responsibly sourced.

Ben & Jerry's Ice Cream Phish Food 465 ml

Chocolate ice cream with marshmallow (15%), caramel (10%) and chocolatey shaped fish (7.5%). Chocolate ice cream with gooey marshmallow, caramel swirls and chocolatey fish. Ben & Jerry's Phish Food frozen dessert is delicious, but how did it come to be? Ben had been pondering the lack of a good marshmallow ice cream dessert for years. “Most attempts at marshmallow were wispy. You can see the white streaks, but you can't taste them, you can't feel them, you can't experience the true glorious marshmallowness of it all,” Ben remembers. Well, back in 1995, we suggested to the rock band Phish that we celebrate our shared Vermont, USA, roots by creating a Phish flavour. As the wheel started turning on the collaboration, Ben saw an opportunity to solve the marshmallow conundrum once and for all. Starting with a base of rich chocolate ice cream, he and our flavour gurus started bringing the band test tubs of the evolving concoction. “We ate many test tubs around the table with Phish. We've done flavours with other artists and entities, but nobody was more involved in creating the flavour than Phish was,” Jerry says. The band was instrumental, for example, in calling for caramel swirl, an addition that pushed the flavour over the top. We think Phish Food rocks. Enjoy! We work with Fairtrade certified producers for cocoa, sugar and vanilla, and our Caring Dairy farmers produce the milk and cream found in this tub sustainably.
