Jeni's honors the solar eclipse with new ice creams
In honor of the total solar eclipse on April 8, Jeni's Splendid Ice Creams is adding its Punk Stargonaut collection, four flavors from a "distant galaxy."
The collection imagines a fictional flight through space, where they gathered all the alien fruit they could find and then turned these otherworldly flavors into vibrant ice creams. Like a fragment of a half-remembered song, every one of Jeni's four limited-edition ice creams feels familiar but just out of reach — layered to spark curiosity and keep customers guessing. And to remind us that we're all made of stars, no matter what planet we come from.
The four colorful, Punk Stargonaut ice creams inspired by the cosmos include:
- Nebula Berry — A bright and bouncy ice cream that tastes tart like a blueberry and vibrant like a raspberry with a beautiful elderflower finish.
- Cosmic Bloom — The flavor is a tropical delicacy — citrusy like a mandarin, refreshing like a kiwi, and punchy like passion fruit.
- Purple Star Born — Jeni's first-ever grape ice cream! Intensely juicy with Concord grape and puckery blackcurrants.
- Supermoon — The revival of a customer favorite! It tastes like candied violet and marshmallows — a combination reminiscent of marshmallow cereal milk.
The Punk Stargonaut Collection is available in Jeni's scoop shops nationwide and online now.
In addition, Jeni's has also released a special topping, Space Dust, a fizzy popping candy that adds another dimension to all of its flavors. Space Dust is available as a topping in shops and also in take-home bags in scoop shops and online with the collection.
Consumers who order the Punk Stargonaut Collection by April 3 and receive four pairs of ISO-certified eclipse glasses in their shipment. In scoop shops starting Friday, April 5, customers can receive a pair of Jeni's brand eclipse glasses free with purchase, while supplies last.
